Scott Johnson recently caught this 15.5-inch whopper of a white perch. ![]() If they are protecting fry balls it may take several casts to finally upset them enough to strike. Casting annoying topwater lures like buzzbaits or chatterbaits is a good way to get their attention. Heavy grass is the place to find them, and they can be found in all the region’s tidal rivers and creeks. Northern snakeheads are in various stages of spawning this week – either actively spawning, protecting fry balls, or in a post-spawn mode of behavior. Many anglers also have good luck with live bluegill sunfish. In the dam pool, the flathead catfish can grow large foraging on the abundant gizzard shad, which is why it makes one of the most popular baits. Cut bait is the most popular, but many anglers have good luck with chicken liver and scented baits.Īt the Conowingo Dam pool, flathead catfish can be found below the tailrace of the power generating turbines, picking up pieces of fish that happen to come through the turbines. The lower Susquehanna River and the Chester River have large populations of blue catfish, and they can be found in all the region’s tidal rivers in substantial numbers. One of the secrets to preparing catfish – either blue or channel – is to remove all the red meat and silver skin when fileting them. There are plenty of blue catfish in the upper Bay and they are worthwhile targeting since they make good table fare. The best fishing success occurs during the morning and evening hours when a good tide is running. Rock jetties, breakwaters, steep edges, bulkheads, piers, areas with old pilings, and almost any kind of structure that might harbor food for white perch are good places to target. Perhaps the most fun way to fish for white perch is to use a light-tackle spinning rod and cast beetle-spins, small spinnerbaits, spinners, and small plastic jigs along shoreline structure in the Bay and tidal rivers. In some areas of the Bay and near the mouths of the tidal rivers, spot can be part of the mix. 4 hooks or dropper rigs with small soft plastic jigs or flies will do the trick. Just enough sinker to hold bottom and one or two No. When fishing in the Bay or in the deeper waters of the tidal rivers, bottom rigs baited with grass shrimp, peeler crab or pieces of bloodworm are standard fare. All the tidal rivers in the upper Bay contain populations of white perch and they can also be found on oyster reefs and knolls. White perch are always an abundant Bay species to fish and they provide some excellent eating. Striped bass targeting in Maryland’s portion of the Chesapeake Bay resumes August 1.

Check the areas of low oxygen map to help determine the maximum fishing depth in your favorite area.Įxpect average flows all week, although localized thunderstorms may increase flows in nearby waters. In these areas, better oxygen conditions will be found on the east side of the Bay. On the west side of the Bay from the Patapsco down to the Rhode River, avoid fishing below 15-20 feet. While there is still low oxygen, or hypoxia, in bottom waters, the hypoxia volume in June was very low and among the best on record. The coolest main Bay surface waters are still found between the Patapsco River and Annapolis.īay salinity is still above average. Main Bay surface water temperatures cooled slightly from recent rains but will likely increase back to the mid 80s later this week.

Okay, that takes care of the fundamentals of the Chess Board Layout. You should now have a better idea of their meaning. Remember this term as, at some stage, you’ll be finding out about “Flank Openings” and “Flank Attacks”. These zones are referred to as the “Flanks”. If you can’t fight your way through the Center, you’ll have to make do with attacking down the sides of the Chessboard. Similar to controlling the top of a hill, or the highground, in real wars, the Small Center represents greater control of the two territories. Most often, the player who controls the Center is better equipped to dictate the battle. We can also bisect the Chessboard along a horizontal plane, which allocates 32 squares of Territory for both Black and Whites armies respectively, at the beginning of each game.Īs you work your way through our Beginners Chess Guide, you’ll get to the subject matter known as “The Principle of Space”, which deals identifying territorial advantages. This zonal group splits the Board down the middle the left half of the Chessboard is referred to as the “Queenside”, since that’s the side both Queens start each game … Knowing that, I’ll leave you to work out “Kingside”. “Kingside” and “Queenside” are the most commonly known of the zonal, chess board layout terms. (See our Beginners Chess Guide article, “ Annotated Chess“, for more). The alpha-numeric system will be called into action later, when you learn about the Algebraic Chess Notation system, for recording moves, captures, etc. Files are identified by letters (‘ a‘ across to ‘ h‘).Ranks are identified by numbers (‘ 1‘ up to ‘ 8‘).What you might originally call “columns”, you’ll now refer to as “ Files“. What you might originally call “rows”, you’ll now refer to as “ Ranks“. White’s Territory vs Black’s Territory.The Board can be split into five zonal groups: Knowing the Chessboard can be split up into different Zones will help later on, when it comes to both Strategy planning and Tactics. So, that’s the orientation and placement of your material taken care of … The last aspect of the Chess Board Layout we’ll cover is to do with splitting the Board into imaginary “Zones” … The Chessboard: Zones Whether you’re playing as Black or White, the Pawns go on the second row (Rank) up … As for the Pieces, they go on the very bottom Rank – also known as the “Back Rank”. Next, we’ll see where to put the Pawns and Pieces, at the start of each game … The Chessboard: Where the Pawns and Pieces Start And that takes care of putting the Board the right way up. The correct orientation is to make sure there’s a light-square, in the bottom-right corner of the Chessboard, as you sit facing it. First, orientation – making sure the Board is facing the right way up … The Chessboard: Right Way Up Here, we’ll answer your query about the Chess Board Layout.

Fight to the death with your buddies or opt to band together and repel hordes of vicious foes. It’s very fun to play and nice to look at. I recommend this game to anyone that likes adventure games. Minor plot twists abound although the story can still be summarized as “Save the princess, save the world.” There is a much larger supporting cast than in LttP and they all receive a lot more characterization than in LttP. While LttP had an expansive story, this game made it more prominent. It felt like there could have been more here. There are barely any enemies in Hyrule Field and when there are, it’s at only the beginning of the game. Nowadays, the graphics for this game are less impressive and the world actually feels very dead at times. I remember as a kid, back in 1998, getting out of Kokiri Forest and having my eyes just pop out at how expansive Hyrule Field is. The graphics were, for its time, amazing. I wouldn’t be surprised if someone played the Imperial March with it. People have actually used it to play different songs, such as the Kakariko Theme. Not only are the music pieces great and moody, but there’s even an item in-game that let’s you play music. And the soundtrack! The title promises that a musical instrument would be important to the game, and it makes good on that promise. Many creatures in the world make different sounds. You can’t control Epona while also using your bow, so you might often find yourself being galloped towards a wall, while the Poe you’re hunting taunts you and your dumb beast (but then again, I can’t imagine anyone controlling a horse and aiming an arrow at the same time). There are some limitations: you can’t move around while aiming, although if you use Z-Targeting, you can still strafe around. ![]() ![]() ![]() The camera is rarely ever an issue and Link moves and acts as you’d expect him to. I don’t know what game actually came up with the “Z-Targeting” technique, but this is the one that popularized, and for good reason. It’s beautiful and worthy of being called a masterpiece, although this is also where story takes precedence over adventuring and so linearity begins to become more prominent. It was also the game that transitioned the franchise into the realm of 3D polygons and the one game everyone seems to remember when “Zelda” is uttered. If A Link to the Past was a refinement of the first Zelda, then Ocarina of Time was refinement of LttP. ![]() ![]() I had the good fortune of getting Chris Wedge’s attention long enough to chat with him a little about ICE AGE, his work, and his views about technology, the animation industry, and the lost art of 8mm backyard filmmaking. There are multiple commentaries, trailers, documentaries, deleted scenes, television spots, Blue Sky Studio's Oscar-winning animated film "Bunny,” and a new animated short called “Scrat’s Missing Adventure.” It kind of reminds me of the EPISODE II DVD (which I’ve been watching insistently since I got it last month), it’s so packed.

They also gave us a mandate to make it into a comedy from what was previously a rather dramatic action concept.” ![]() “Fox came to us with the concept for ICE AGE and they came to us with the first draft of the script. Fox and Blue Sky Studios collaborated on this one, as co-director Chris Wedge explains. It was refreshing to see a confident looking 3D animated film that wasn’t from one of the usual suspects. I need to hurry up and finish that so that I can start checking out the new 2 disc DVD of ICE AGE, which hits stores November 26.įrom my first viewing of that famous teaser trailer, they had me.

The other course of action you can take for Golden Keys is to bank on the third method, which is to wait for any of the upcoming free content updates, such as the Halloween-themed Bloody Harvest event in October. Speaking of which, you can also get Golden Keys by using Borderlands VIP points. When you do get an active Shift Code, you can plug it into the Shift Code section in the main menu or the Borderlands VIP site. This code has since expired, but we can likely look forward to more of these being posted online in the future. These have historically been distributed by Gearbox via newsletters and social media channels-in fact, Gearbox's Randy Pitchford shared one on Twitter over the launch weekend. The second method involves obtaining Shift Codes that you can redeem for a chance to receive some Golden Keys. The first method is by getting it through pre-ordering Borderlands 3, which earns you five Golden Keys. But here's how all of these systems work and what they do. You can only open that Golden Chest with a Golden Key, and you can only earn these through a few specific methods, which includes the much-talked-about Shift Codes. You might spend a moment wondering how to open this mysterious chest but inevitably settle on the hope that the answer to that question will be detailed to you later in the story. ![]() They have been posting codes for golden keys, Borderlands 3 VIP program codes, and more.After spending hours shooting bandits and Maliwan troopers in Borderlands 3, you might notice a locked Golden Chest tucked away in a corner of Sanctuary. Personally, I like to scroll through timeline. The easiest one to check is Gearbox’s twitter page, or even Randy Pitchford’s own account, as he’s posted a few codes that are only available for a short time. Shift Codes will pop up occasionally on one of Gearbox’s many social media accounts. From there, you can get the keys by accepting them from the inbox in the ‘Social’ menu. If, for some reason, the code doesn’t work, there’s a chance it might have expired or you’ve redeemed it already. You’ll be given a choice of platform to collect them on, and from there you should be informed that the code was redeemed successfully. Once there, go to the ‘Rewards’ tab and copy-paste the code into the redemption box. The second way, which is by far the easiest, is to redeem the Borderlands 3 Shift Codes through your Shift account. ![]() ![]() Not sure in which category this "bug" (poorly thought our or stupid) falls into or maybe there's another?
