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

November 24, 2019
Anglers –
Last week we saw TS Raymond pass
through the Los Cabos area, shutting
down
all Port activities on Sunday and
Monday, this during a very busy time
frame when these red flag conditions
are rare occurrences. In another week
the large crowds will lighten up, as
they normally do after Thanksgiving
and before the Christmas Holidays.
Unpredictable weather conditions for
the
past month, more north wind than usual
for this early in the season, also
we are now following forecast for
another rain storm that is moving in
the
direction of Southern Baja, all local
interests are hoping this latest
system veers in another direction, as
we have already had plenty of
rainfall, last weekend alone there were
reports of isolated areas receiving
six of more inches of rainfall, also
some major flooding through low lying
regions.
After the passing of the rain the all-
around action seemed to slow down,
which also stirred up ocean conditions,
dirty water and a bit cooler, down
in the 79 degree range, baitfish became
scattered as well. Later in the
week water clarity did improve and
baitfish were becoming more active.
Some
schools of sardinas were found near
marina jetties, also some caballito,
other options were ballyhoo and slabs
of squid.
The wahoo action near Vinorama
vanished, though by Friday a few nice
wahoo
up to 47 lb. were reported, other
strikes lost, so we are confident that
these fish will remain on local grounds
for another month or so. Dorado
were spread out in different direction,
found more consistently towards
Cabo San Lucas, most of these fish were
under 15 lb., with a few exception
of larger 20 lb. plus specimens,
striking both baits and lures.
The yellowfin tuna bite near San Luis
Bank came to a halt, though the big
news was that a few much Alger
yellowfin tuna were hooked into off of
the
Gordo Banks, though more anglers were
having battles with various species
of sharks, there were some monster tuna
now on these grounds. There were
several very impressive catches
records,, including 145 lb,. 272 lb.
and
335 lb., this proved to be best week
yet for this season on these grounds
for the larger grade of yellowfin,
several other cow sized tuna were lost
after long epic battles. Slow trolling
lovely smaller sized skipjack was
the main producer of these big strikes.
Offshore and towards Cabos San
Lucas there were a smaller football
sized grade of yellowfin tuna, though
that was a bit hit or miss, with some
charter landing 5 to 7 fish and
others lucky to find one.
Bottom action continued to be slow,
mainly triggerfish, an occasional
amberjack, cabrilla, snapper or pargo.
Inshore action was limited,
depending on what bait was obtainable,
jack crevalle up to 20 lb., a few
sierra and some juvenile roosterfish up
to 15 lb.
Billfish was red hot on the Pacific
grounds, but were also starting to move
in the direction of the local grounds
off of San Jose del Cabo, a handful
of striped marlin, sailfish and blue
marlin were accounted for in recent
days, nothing too large, stripers
averaged less than 100 lb., blue marlin
up in the 175 lb. range.
*T*he combined sportfishing fleet
launching out of the panga area from
Puerto Los Cabos Marina sent out an
estimated 120 charters for the week and
anglers reported an approximate fish
count of: 1 black marlin,1 blue
marlin, 5 striped marlin, 1 sailfish,
88 dorado, 65 yellowfin tuna, 5
wahoo, 6 yellow snapper, 2 barred
pargo, 3 leopard grouper, 5 amberjack,
29
Mexican bonito, 4 sierra, 4 jack
crevalle, 10 roosterfish, 4 surgeon
fish,
2 rainbow runner,5 golden eyed tilefish
and 80 triggerfish.
Good Fishing, Eric
