    Default If you see this, start FISHING! 9-8-11


    Here is where the fish are.......

    Maybe you can see the pictures, it's hard to take a picture of depth finder with out glare...












    These things are taking over...


    Here is what you may catch over that brush...
    .

    We fished moss today, ( Me and Parker) from 8 am till 4 pm. Water temp was 80. Focused on finding big fish today, Stayed on the main lake mostly, fishing brush in 16 to 28 feet of water with jigs. We left them biting, Had A good day, we filleted 25 good crappie and released the rest, 100+ crappie, few spotted bass and brim. The fishing is getting better as the water temp drops, A few more weeks it should be real good.
    I had the most trouble loading these picture I have ever had! Could not get the tool bar to work, could not insert photo! Had to use photobucket.

    If you can get a polarized filter for that camera, it should knock down that glare considerably and improve the colors of your pictures. However, most people use point-and-shoot cameras and that feature is just not availible for those.

    Nice work on the fish! I hope to make it out for the first time for crappies here in NC this fall. I just need to figure out how I'm getting on the water just yet.

    Countryboy .... some things you can try, to make pics of DF screen more visable :

    1) Have the Sun in front of you/back of DF & turn on the backlight feature.
    2) Tilt the DF down some, to get your reflection/flash out of pic
    3) Stand farther back & use zoom feature (if you have one)
    4) With Sun on the DF screen - block flash of camera + don't shade the DF + #3

    Take a minimum of 3 pics, from different directions and/or using these tips, for every scene you want to capture .... then edit out the lesser ones when uploading to your computer. You'll remember how each shot was set up, on the best picture outcomes, and that will be in your mind on future picture taking attempts. Thumbs Up

    Can't help you on the tool bar problem, as I always use Photobucket, myself. But, your pics are of the best size for showing clear images & detail ... and they posted just fine. (Makes me think you might have read one of my Photobucket walkthru tutorials Rofl)

    You know I was joking! I'm pretty sure that crappie is (or was) one of my pets.

    Sounds like a great day on the water there CBNC. I am chompin' at the bit to get out there myself.
    Hopefully, I can make it out Sunday... if not it will be Thursday of next week. You will see a report from me
    one of those two days... if not both. (Well, both, that's probably a little too optimistic).
    Thanks for sharing your great day of fishing.
