hey nice jigs but the pics look a bit blurry but not to bad..look in the owner manual fro the cam it should have a closest distance posted in it..i think you were just a but to close..the other thing is if the on/off button thing has a little flower on it try using it on that setting sometimes it works better

Mike, you tie those jigs a bit smaller say in 1/32 or so and bring those when your uncle and you head out this coming X-mas in a pink or white pattern like we discussed and.......
Awsome work budd!!!!

LOL thanks FF.....the flyshop just opened up and they have no pink marabou. They didnt have the materials for the "secret" fly so I tied the same pattern white with blue flash
Can't wait!!!

Mike,
Your pics look a bit out of focus. Make sure your camera is set to macro mode (assuming your camera has it). This should resolve the focus problem.
Cheers,

yff,
like Todd mentioned: MACRO setting for those super close up shots. It makes a huge difference.
I'll bet you can't wait to try out the flies AND the digicam on your next outing (which might include your Dad)!
Good luck!

Thanks for the tip...I was going to ask that same question last night but I was in a rush to get to bed...thanks for answering it toddb/wolfe!!
LOL i thought something had to be up...those didnt turn out very well...but you shoulda seen the other ones....absolutely dreadful
I'm glad I have one now....after getting my 2 rolls of fim wiped I dont want to rely on the photolab..and I can have the fun of posting reports and taking tonnes of pics
