THE SCIENCE OF FISHING
The introduction of electronic
fishing lures for big game changed the fishing community forever. Designed primarily for
the tournament fishing community(IGFA allowed), these units have been the primary focus of
many documentary films due to it's high success rate. Designed in conjunction with leading
marine biologists, and S2 Instruments, the big game electronic fishing lure was born.
These unique devices use specific pressure (vibrations) to emulate struggling bait fish
that Sharks, Tuna, and Marlin feed on. Each takes in to account the "NORMAL"
feeding habits in the way of size, weight, species, and degree of struggle. The concept
was studied on how species survive in their natural environment, this is the key to the
success of these fishing products.
FACT:
Ampullae of Lorenzini (Sharks)
Named after the 17th-century anatomist who first described them, these skin pores stipple
the head and body of sharks. They connect to long, jelly-filled tubes ending in blind sacs
called ampullae, which contain sensory cells and nerves connecting to the brain. The cells
enable sharks to home in on hidden prey, which, like all animals, give off weak electric
fields. Sharks can also detect the presence of ocean currents and make long migrations by
sensing the seabed's local geomagnetic signature. The smooth dogfish, for one, can detect
a change in direction of intensity of five billionths of a volt per centimeter.
Lateral line (Tuna and Marlin)
Stretching from head to tail down the flank, the lateral-line system consists of
fluid-filled sensory canals with tiny, hair-like receptors. These are similar to the
ampullae of Lorenzini but are sensitive to vibrations. Acting like a body-length ear, the
system helps fish sense objects in the ocean. To them, the lateral line, which has
been dubbed "distant touch," is like having a long arm with which to touch a
rock or another fish.
