Nice pics keep em coming, so I have something to look forward to when I get out of the hospital.
I think you did a decent job with the glare. You can only see it on a few. That's one of the things that kept me putting off doing this. I had it in my head that I needed to scan them. I've taken pics of 35mm prints. The best luck I had was when the camera was angled askew to the pic. If you see a glare spot developing, change the camera angle a bit. Otherwise, great job!
When I first started taking George and his little cousin fishing, they were only 7. Back then I would hook the fish and let them reel them in. They would get bored quickly. A few hours of fishing with them ended up with them playing in the mud while I hooked the fish for them. They would take the bluefish, dig holes in the sand for them, fill with water, and say the bluefish were "in the hospital". I guess they didn't notice too much that the bluefish we bought home never got "better".
So it's been a transition for them. I got them into bait fishing, they did ok. Last year was the first time I got George to throw plugs. I took him out surfcasting a few times after that, and have tried to giive him an understanding of fishing, conservation, the kind of water that is good for fishing, and all the little baitfish you want to look for.
He is developing patience, which is great because he never was very patient to begin with. (He kinda reminds me of when I was little.)
On one of our trips in the spring, he was observant enough to notice a worm hatch in the water. Pretty cool.
I'm real proud of him, and hope we can get him some nice fish for 2010 as he learns how to throw different plugs.
Not the greatest picture. Taken with my cell phone by GunnySniper. It was just before sunrise after spending all night on a large rock. My 1st ever big fatty. 39" and chunky. Between the 2 of us we caught 15 fish that night. All successfully released
This is Gunny about an hour later from the same rock
And this was the sunrise from that day
A couple of my buddies with some nice fish. The dates are wrong...my camera has a mind of it's own.
Cardoc, you are out so far in the bottom left pic you look like you were swimming. Were you skishing or digging for clams?
Only picture from a night of several fish.
God is Great, Beer is Good, People are crazy.
I swear Cardoc was born in a swimming pool. . I always get nervous when he does that. I always keep an eye on him when we fish because he is always so far into the water.
Nice fish all Sometimes ya need to take a walk to get to a drop off but if the fish are in close you guys are not catching he's scaring them could be a good tactic for him.
Cranky Old Bassturd.
I always shoot one rod out far and one in close. I am not into walking that far out into the water becasuse I have a fear of falling into a hole a dying. Especially at night or when I am alone. Safety first.
here are two bass from the hook at nite fishin with ds
Nice fish Yellow plugs at night still work I see.
