My first trout on the new float reel!

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

How did you take those pictures? May need to hire your camera man. :wink:
Auto Set.

I put the camera in a tree pointed where I want it. I set it for 60 seconds so I don't have to run like hell. I also have it set to take 2 additional pics 10 seconds later in case the first one doesn't turn out.

I love pictures for my digital scrapbook. :D
That must have been a challenge to setup with a trout in your hand hehehe!!! Nice fish.

aren't you supposed to pretend your eating your rod when posing with a float reel?

(remember, pretend, dont do it!)

Nice Fish!

Fly fishing wanna be. You're right, that's ridiculous :lol: You just don't have the boyish good looks and the two perfectly spaced out buck teeth for the kind of photo you were going for there Mark, but, a valiant attempt and certainly worth me laughing about it. :lol:

We'll go fishing at the outflow again and we'll get some spincast shots together holding some 4lb smallies with the combos between our teeth, it'll be priceless. 8)

Honestly, I think it is a big fish hold. No need doing it for shakers.

Bunk...perhaps we could go with your spinning reel suggestion, but substitute the smallies for lakers. :P

Good looking fish Mark.... :D

I guess this learning thing goes on, ...and on, ...and on, ...and on....etc :roll:

Need more practice on the "bite" shot though.... :D

Another thing I gotta try, ....if you catch my "drift" :roll: :lol:
