    (NewsUSA) - The days of using a stick, some string and a worm are as much a part of American culture as apple pie and baseball. Unlike that time, there are now many choices for anglers this spring, depending on where you'll be fishing.

    In fact, selecting your gear is half the fun. But for starters, set aside the rods, reels, rigs, jigs and tackle, it's also just as important to remember these items that are often overlooked:

    * Use sunscreen. You only have to suffer from sun poisoning one time to understand the relationship between sun and water. While the water may be cold and temperatures out-side chilly, sun reflecting off the water will still give you a burn. A sweat proof sunscreen that won't run and sting the eyes is ideal, as is one that won't leave a greasy residue that could adversely affect your grip.

    * Wear a base layer. A thin T-shirt is a must as a base layer, better if it is made of fabric that wicks away moisture. There are even some that are made to be water repellent and stain resistant with anti-odor properties for those in warmer climes. Since this is the layer that is in direct contact with your skin, you want something that will allow moisture to escape as you sweat.

    * Find the right pants. Spring days on the water are usually an all-day event, and call for versatility in your clothing. To that point, pants that convert to shorts are ideal. Like shirts, pants should be stain-resistant. Additionally, the pants should have plenty of pockets (with zippers) to carry anything extra. If you don't have access to a boat or dock, extend your fishing range with a good pair of fishing waders.

    * Cover your head. Hats with a hard-hat liner will keep your neck, ears and head warm in cold weather. For warmer climates, a wide-brimmed hat will guard against sunburn, overheating and overexposure.

    * Bring the extras. This could include a life vest, cooler or, if you happen to be a smokeless tobacco user, a portable spittoon like those offered by Flasr. The Atlanta-based company prides itself on creating the first-of-its-kind portable spittoon that is small enough to fit in your pocket and carry along wherever you go -- whether it's fishing on a lake or hunting in a blind. Its advanced closing mechanism ensures that it stays securely closed, eliminating the risk of spills and leaks.

    Social media is a search engine. Learn how to get found. Marketing





    If you're on social media but no one's finding you, you're not a ghost—you’re just invisible.

    Let’s have a little truth fest, shall we?

    You keep posting. You're dancing. You're showing your iced coffee. You're even dropping wisdom that should get you a book deal. But the only one liking your stuff is your aunt Tammy and that one MLM girl who’s always “cheering you on.”

    Mama, let me say this with love and a strong shot of espresso (decaf if you're off caffeine like a psycho):
    Social media is not just for showing up. It's for getting found.

    That’s right. Instagram. TikTok. Pinterest. Facebook. Even LinkedIn if you’re feeling fancy.
    They’re not just platforms — they are search engines in glitter and crop tops.
    Social Media = Search Engine (Yes, Really)

    Let me break it down like your toddler breaks down when you cut the sandwich the wrong way.

    All of these platforms have search bars. You know what that means?
    People are typing things like:

    “Mom blog”

    “Easy vegan toddler meals”

    “Freelance writing tips”

    “Jesus and coffee memes” (okay maybe that’s just me)

    If your profile isn’t optimized, you could be serving up exactly what they need—and still be chilling in the shadow realm of the algorithm. No ma’am. We don’t do invisible over here.
    1. Your Name Is Prime Real Estate

    Stop putting “✨Mama of 3✨” in your name field. I love your babies, but that’s not what people are searching.

    Instead, tell the algorithm what you do.
    Example:
    Erica | SEO Copywriter for Moms
    or
    Jess | Pinterest Coach for Bloggers

    Now when someone types “Pinterest coach,” boom. You’re in the game.
    2. Your Bio Is a Mini Sales Page

    That little box? It’s not a throwaway. It's not for inspirational quotes. It’s for hooking followers like the savvy mama boss you are.

    Format cheat code:

    👋 Who you help
    💡 What you help them do
    🔗 Your freebie or offer

    Example:
    Helping writer moms grow their blog + make bank online 💸
    👇 Grab the free SEO checklist

    Short. Sassy. Searchable. Yes please.
    3. Keywords. Yep, Even on Instagram.

    Pinterest mamas already know the power of keywords. But IG? TikTok? Yes girl. They’ve been creeping on your captions this whole time.

    Use the exact words your dream audience would type. You’re not just posting a reel. You’re posting a searchable piece of content.

    Instead of:
    “Loved making this for dinner!”
    Try:
    “Easy one-pan vegan meal for busy moms 🍽️ #veganrecipes #quickdinnerideas #momlifehacks”

    Don’t keyword stuff. We’re not robots. But do give the platform something to latch onto.
    4. Hashtags Aren’t Dead, They’re Just Boring If You Use ‘#Blessed’

    Choose hashtags that are specific to your niche and content. Think of them as little roads leading people to your profile.

    #MomBloggerTips

    #ChristianMomsWhoWrite

    #FreelanceWritingLife

    #FaithBasedBiz

    Keep a rotating list. And for the love of viral reach, don’t just copy and paste the same 30 dead hashtags on every post.
    5. Your Content Needs to Scream “Hey Algorithm, Pick Me!”

    Here’s the hard truth, boo:

    If you're just vibing, you're blending in.

    Your content needs to answer questions, solve problems, or entertain in a way that makes the algorithm go, “Ooh, I know someone who’d love this.”

    So instead of vague captions like,
    “Just showing up today 🥰”
    Try:
    “Here’s how I built a blog that gets 1,000+ monthly visits—with no tech degree and 3 kids screaming in the background.”

    Because THAT, my friend, is search engine gold.
    Final Word from Your Favorite Truth-Teller

    You’re not too late. You’re not too old. You’re not too small.
    You’re just not searchable—yet.

    Social media doesn’t reward mystery. It rewards clarity.
    So rewrite that bio. Add keywords to your captions. Use that name field like your business depends on it—because it kinda does.

    And if you're still feeling stuck, don’t worry—I got you.
    Follow me for more great tips or DM me with questions.


    Now go make the algorithm your sidekick, Mama.
    You’re building an empire—and empires don’t hide.

    I sit here
    all alone
    Empty rooms
    Quietness
    Other than the whirring of a fan
    No screaming of a young child playing
    No cooing of a happy baby
    Whirr whirr whirr
    Which once was a house full of love and joy
    Now feels like a nightmare I cant escape
    Wishing
    Hoping
    Dreaming
    That one day ill have that back again
    The coos
    The screams
    The noises that irritate most parents are the ones I long for the most
    The endless cuddles
    The mommy mommy mommy
    I just want it all back
    I want a reason to get out of bed and do something
    The darkness with them gone keeps closing in and I feel like it will never end
    I feel like those coos
    Those screams
    Those giggles
    Those cuddles
    Those cries
    Will never come back
    I feel like the life im living now
    Visiting my own kids like theyre my niece and nephew will never end
    I've thought of burning cutting smoking drinking anything to concrete that pain and maybe just maybe take it all away
    but I know if I do the pain will never go away because it may be the thing that takes it away forever
    Those cries
    Those coos
    Those screams
    Those giggles
    Would never come back
    So I sit here listening to the whirr of the fan hoping that one of these days that whirr isn't the only thing to fill these rooms

    1.Nihari,

    Nihari is a delicious meat stew loved by people all over the world,

    for its radiant beautiful aroma, rich savory flavor and tender fall of the bone meat which completely dissolves into your mouth giving you an experience of a lifetime.

    It was originally invented in the 1800s to be consumed as a high energy, rich in nutrition and heavy on stomach dish

    to keep the working-class citizens full all day long and to provide required energy.

    However, in today's era it is eaten for its magical flavor which gives your tongue the flavor it craves!

    The word Nihari comes from an Arabic word “Nahar” which means “Morning” as it was usually enjoyed in the daytime/early morning Its mouthwatering flavor attracted the Mughal Emperors (Nawabs) of that time who ate this delicacy to break their morning fasts.

    It is traditionally served with naan (a fermented bread baked in a clay oven)



    2. Namkeen rosh,

    The word “Namkeen” in Urdu means “salty” As the name suggests it is this simple salty tender piece of meat which may not sound delicious to ‘ocean haters’ but, those who have tasted all confirm that it is indeed Delightful.

    The ingredients only include;

    . Diced Ginger & Garlic

    . Meat (small pieces preferably fatty cuts)

    . And most important Salt which gives this dish its signature taste.

    Now begins the time to wait, to make the meat tender and melt in your mouth. After the meat is done garnish it with some green chilies and ginger (preferably; lengthwise). It is traditionally served with its own broth (yakhnee) and naan. It is quite popular and mostly enjoyed in the northern mountainous regions of the country as it helps the locals stay warm and meet body’s salt requirement.



    3. Chicken tikka,

    Tikka (BBQ chicken generally well charred, spicy and tangy in flavor) is the dream of every meat loving person.

    It is enjoyed all over the sub-continent and the name of United Kingdom is also included in this list. Traditionally small boneless chicken pieces are marinated with traditional species and yoghurt (dahi) to tenderize and break down the meat fibers with vertical cuts all over the chicken to let it completely absorb the flavor. the meat is cooked over open fire (angheeti) OR they are grilled over charcoals.

    The word “Tikka” is a Persian word meaning “bits / pieces” but if we listen to the people who have tried it, we can all agree that it should mean “outstanding flavor” because that's all this dish offers.
