Photography - Angling Fish

Here's a link may appreciate.

This is a link to the Rapala website that will allow you to download different wallpapers.

Granted, some of the wallpapers are ads that appear in any fishing magazine but there are some really nice shots such as old time black and white pictures, sepia toned shots, or helpful items such as wallpapers with a two month calender.

Give it a look. You may surprise yourself.

Until next time--watch your line and watch yourself!

A look at the same place throughout the year

November 18th 2008 01:34

Knowing how deep the water is where you fish is important because you have to know how deep the water is to have an idea of where the fish are.

That can be done with an electronic depth finder or simply being familiar with the area you fish.

Matt Hayes--fishing and photography

August 20th 2008 01:13

Here's a website I discovered and really enjoy because it combines two of my passions--fishing and photography.

The owner of this site, Matt Hayes, is a U.k. angler and photographer who has a great screen presence. I've been exploring this site and surfing the web to find out all I can about him and I think he's become my favorite non-American angler.

Trying out a new camera at my favorite spot

February 10th 2008 01:59

I wanted to kill two birds with one stone on this post. Aside from getting some material for my blog, I wanted to try out a new camera at the same time and today was warm enough that I could get out and put it through its paces.

Although I have no intentions of turning this blog into some sort of fisherman's diary, I will say that things went pretty well although there are some points I still want to work on. Newer cameras do so many things! The main thing I have to work on is remembering how to change settings. I guess that's not a problem if you always shoot on AUTOMATIC but, to really get good shots or anything very creative, you have to learn to shoot on MANUAL. Yeah, yeah! I know--that defeats the purpose of AUTOMATIC. Here's my take on that--AUTO is fine if all you want is a record of an occurrence. That way of thinking began with the Kodak Brownie. (Photography buffs will know what I mean!)

Photograph your trophy

January 3rd 2008 04:52

I've mentioned catch and release in passing before. What happens if you get that once in a life time catch and want to show it off? In the past, when you got that "trophy catch," you had to choose between throwing it back and keeping it. You could get a trophy but it was pretty well the end of the line for the fish. Now days, you can get your trophy and the fish gets to live to be caught again.

All you need to do is take a series of photographs of your catch and a life like replica suitable for mounting can be made. Todays reproductions are far superior to what was available just a few years ago. In fact, the technology available today can create trophies that are so life like that they rival anything in nature and certainly look better than anything found in fishing lodges when you were a kid.
