Aug 1, 2023; 07:26AM - They Don't Teach You This About Honey Bees in Schools
|

Tip&Trick Description 1:
1. Honey is the only food that has every single substance to sustain life.
2. Honey doesn't ever turn bad. You can actually eat honey that was found in Egyptian tombs
thousands of years ago. (if you dare) ‼️
3. A single bee produces just HALF a teaspoon of honey in its lifetime. Hard work.
4. The darker the honey, the more powerful its medicinal properties and the less sweet it is.
The inverse also holds true.
5. Honey is the original antibiotic. It's been used as an antibacterial and antifungal for
generations.
6. Honey is a natural sleeping pill. Consuming honey aids with the production of melatonin.
Drink a warm cup of chamomile and take a shot of honey to the dome. Game changer.
7. You don't need to wash your honey dipper if you leave it in the jar of honey itself. Honey
is a natural preservative, so bacteria will not grow.
8. To make one pound of honey, bees need to visit 2 million flowers. 2 MILLION.

Tip&Trick Description 2:
9. Honey is the only food made by an insect that's actually eaten by BOTH the insect and us.
We're literally best friends.
10. Honey is one of the original remedies for an everyday cough & allergies. Local honey is
said to be useful in curing seasonal allergies.
11. Bees don't sleep. Work hard. Play hard.
12. Honey is excellent on burns. Cool the burn in running water. Pat it dry. Apply raw, organic
honey. It will speed up healing and even reduce any eventual scarring.
13. Babies under 12 months of age shouldn't ingest honey (their immune system isn't yet strong
enough to handle a certain strain of bacteria that's quite prevalent in honey)
14. Honey, like a lot of 'animal-based' products have a myriad of topical and oral applications
that make it incredibly versatile. Nature's all purpose drug.
15. The only honey that exists in my world is raw, organic unfiltered honey. To pasteurize
honey is to ruin the work of thousands of bees. You are literally a war criminal.
16. Everyone raves about Manuka honey, but the real ones have tried Jarrah. If you know, you
know.
17. Honey is one of the best hydration sources in the world. Honey > Pre Workout.
18. Honey is nature's moisturizer. |

18. Honey is nature's moisturizer.
19. Royal jelly is a special compound that worker bees secret; so potent it can transform an
ordinary bee into a queen bee. It's like a concentrated, supercharged version of honey.
20. The honey bee is a crucial part of our ecosystem. Without their help, over a third of all
food eaten in America wouldn't exist.
21. Honey should be a key ingredient in shampoos. Cleopatra did it. Why shouldn't we?
22. Bees communicate with other bees by dancing. That's how they signal where the best flowers
are. Seems familiar...
23. Honey is a source of flavanoids and phenolic acids — antioxidants which have been studied
to have incredible anti-inflammatory and even anti-cancer properties.
24. The hexagonal shape of honeycomb cells is a MARVEL. How did they know to use hexagons?
Hexagons are the most efficient shape to store the maximum amount of honey with the least
amount of wax needed to build. Geniuses.
To the anti-honey community:
When we eat honey we are NOT stealing from bees. It's a symbiotic relationship. We protect them
from the harsh conditions of nature, giving them a safe space to have their fun and make their
vomit.
They are so happy that they usually produce more honey than they could ever physically consume.
By consuming their excess honey, we are actually helping them restore balance in the hive.
So yes people, eat more honey. Buy all the varieties. Gift it to everyone around you. And
always remember to give thanks to our wonderful striped yellow friends

CABO SAN LUCAS FISH REPORT MARCH 21-27, 2004
WEATHER: The week started out all right with little wind and the warm waters close to
home, but on Monday it started to blow again. The wind kept up through Wednesday and then
dropped off. It was from the northwest and the west and cooled things off a bit. A little cloud
cover accompanied it, but no rain. Our evening lows were in the high 60s and daytime highs
were around the mid 90s. At the end of the week we were again into sunny skies and just a light
breeze.
WATER: We started out the week with warm water close to home, but then the wind started
blowing and the currents kicked in. By Tuesday the warm water had gotten as far as 30 miles to
the east and had taken all the Marlin and Dorado with it. The temperature break there was
strongly defined but the fishing conditions were bad. Of course this meant that the conditions on
the Pacific side of the Cape were also bad. Later in the week the wind died down and so did the
current and the warm water started to get closer. The Pacific side out to the San Jaime remained
in the low to mid 60s while the warm 73 degree water came back in as close as 18 miles at the
end of the week on the Cortez side. The temp break on the Cortez side was 7 degrees over a 3
mile distance and there was a color break as well. Lets hope it keeps coming in and the wind
stays down!
BAIT: Almost all the bait this week was small Caballito and they were the normal $2 per bait.
There were Sardinas at $20 a bucket and some small Mackerel as well at the normal $2 per piece.
FISHING:
BILLFISH: Well, it changes on an almost daily basis! The beginning and the end of the week
saw some Billfish being caught, almost all of them being Striped Marlin. These fish were on the
warm side of the Cape, the Cortez side and the bite was a pretty even mix on bait and lures. The
fish were running between #120 and #180. At the beginning of the week it was not uncommon
for the guys to be spotting a couple dozen or more Striped Marlin a trip. Petrelero color seemed
to work well as almost everything out there was feeding on squid. A couple of boats reported
they tied into Swordfish in the cold water, and there were a few sighted on the surface that would
not bite.
YELLOWFIN TUNA: This week the Yellowfin Tuna repeated last weeks size and areas, except
that there were fewer of the large fish caught. Also there seemed to be fewer caught overall.
Most of the fish were small footballs, averaging #6-#8. I did see some fish come in that were in
the #40-#50 range. A lot of the small fish were caught in to blind while the larger fish were
associated with the Porpoise. Due to the strong mid-week winds most of the fishing took place
on the Cortez side of the Cape.
DORADO: Green water close to home for most of the week resulted in a slackening of the
Dorado catch. There were Dorado being caught as long as you were fishing the warm water, but
the heavy wind kept a lot of boats from making the 30 mile trip. Once in the area, lures in
Petrelero color worked well, as they did for the Marlin, since there were large amounts of squid at
the temperature break. The Dorado that were found there were nice ones too, with most of the
fish in the #25-#45 range. A live bait dropped back after a hook-up on a lure sure worked well!
WAHOO: I did not see a real Wahoo flag this week, but that does not mean there were none
caught.
INSHORE: Nice Sierra were still available on the Cortez side of the Cape with the best action
taking place around the El Tule area. Some small Roosterfish are showing as well with most of
the fish in the 5 pound range. With the influx of cold water at the Cape, we had a return on the
Yellowtail bite also. Most of the fish were small, from #5 to #15, and dropping down small live
Mackerel seemed to be the key to getting a few of them in the boat.
NOTES: Sure am glad I am not a weather forecaster, I would never be right! Most of the time
we just have to hope that things are going to be good when people make their reservations! This
week the wind really hurt us, but there was some decent action at the beginning and end of the
week Our fingers are crossed that the warm water comes in close and fishing improves quickly!
This weeks report was written to the music of Roger Waters on the Sony DVD In the Flesh,
recorded live in Portland, Oregon in 2000. I grew up on this music, so why is he looking so old
while I feel so young? Until next week, good luck and tight lines!
