Sak Narwal Rises to the Challenge of Catching Redfish

The redfish is one of the fisherman's favorite challenge and Sak Narwal likes a challenge. Considered a warm water fish, the redfish has similar structure to the stingray and catfish. The copper color gives them the reddish hue.

The redfish is generally found along the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic coast where avid fishermen pit their skills with this agile fish. Once an endangered species due to over fishing, redfish live a long life (40-50 years) and grow large up to 36 inches and ninety pounds. The Louisiana coast is a favorite fishing ground for fishermen like Sak Narwal, a catch and release fisherman who enjoys the challenge and the solitude of fishing.

Redfish can be lured with cut bait of mullet or mantis shrimp. The redfish has a keen sense of smell and can be lured towards the hook which can be reigned in by the angler. It is a voracious eater and bottom feeder. Some fishermen like to troll in a flat bottom boat. This can be a challenge since the redfish has a keen sense of hearing and can detect the boat from afar. Many anglers prefer to wade into the marshy water to keep as quite and unobtrusive an approach as possible. Of course, he is also competing with diving birds like gulls and terns who enjoy fishing for redfish as well.

Redfish is abundant in Louisiana, Texas and Florida as well as the Carolina coasts. Sak Narwal, who likes to learn from nature, has pitted his skills with this mighty fish in the Louisiana marshes.

Gadgets for Eyeglasses

Remember Geordi La Forge' eyeglasses on Star Trek: Next Generation? Blind since birth, Geordi is able to see through his VISOR (Visual Instrument and Sensory Organ replacement.) Modern technology is not quite there yet but more digital enhancements may soon be available in an eye wear store near you.

Hearing aids have long been embedded on eyeglass temples. TriSpecs has come out with sunglasses having MP3, Bluetooth technology and headphones on the eye wear temples. Vuzix boasts of its iWearAV920 model of video eyeglasses which connects an iPod through a USB drive right in the glass temple allowing for movie or video viewing on the eyeglasses. Sony has also come out with its own version of this video eye wear. Another futuristic innovation is NEC's invention of the translator eye wear. The gadget called the Tele Scouter is a pair of eyeglasses without the lenses. Software translates the spoken word picked up by headphones on the eyeglasses and projects the translation right into the wearer's retina much like a movie subtitle.

Scientists continue to work on technology to aid the visually impaired. Soon Star Trek's Geordi LaForge VISOR may be around the corner. It can happen. It will happen.
