CAPT HEAVY

I was just thinking of a spot for stuff that is not in the outdoor catagory. Miscellaneous I would cover it.

...Have to run this by the Mods but maybe we could do a Pic of the day thread?

Last couple of days have been great to take pics. Fishing has been slow so I grabbed the camera. There is a little spotting on this pic. Sun bouncing off the lens? This photography hobby is ALMOST as addictive as fishing!

Depending on the time of year, I always fish for multiple species. Usually 2 middle riggers deep with attractors and flies. Riggers 1 and 4 shallower with spoons. Normally the 1 rigger 10ft. from bottom. The 4 rigger 20ft. from bottom. I use these rods as "searchers". I dont depend on dipsies that much any more. On Huron, wire dipsies and meat rigs used bring some bigger Kings. I dont run them often, not enough kings around anymore. Instead Ive add more lead core. You would be surprised on the number of rips that I get running flat lines or 1 color rods in the middle of summer in 70FOW. I dont fish temp at all. I fish bait. If there is bait that is out of temp there will be predators there. People laugh because I dont have a temp probe but my Furuno graph tells me all that I need to know to catch fish.

Finally got a good deer pic. Heading home from my mother in law's house and this animal posed nice for me.

Thanks for the link Nailer. I will give it a look.

First off sorry, I posted those pics in the area area! Opps. Just wanted to ask if if anyone has a good resource for used lenses besides Ebay. I looked at B and H and they seem to be a bit on the high priced side. Looking to add another piece of glass down the road.

Very cool pic!

Not much else going on so I thought that I would take a few photos. Maybe I should have been inland fishing 'Gills. Oh well, always tommorow. Almost ready for leadcore!!

Those flies look great! Love the green. I started making my own too. Hated spending the $$ on something that I could make at a fraction of the price.

Two words on the first time out. "IT STUNK" I guess that we are just going to have to get out a little more. Things are really slow for most of the guys getting out.

Very nice photo! I keep telling the wife that I need more glass.

Hickory it is. Paul did a great job!

I had made mention to a very good friend of mine that I wanted to make a cutting board. A couple of days later Paperboy (Paul) comes over to the house with this artwork. I almost hate to use it. Just wanted thank him again. Pic not that good. I need to get a better flash for indoor shots.

My 27' is sleeping in the barn!!

I made some desert after dinner, was bored so I thought that I would take some pics! So here you go,... Cupcakes!! Wife and daughter loved them!!

Neat photo that I took in front of the cottage before the snow came. I love the north country in winter.

Wife makes sure that I have lots of pics of my daughter! I need to get more outdoor stuff. Heading out this afternoon on a little photo hunt.

Just wondering what you guys are using for cameras. Nikon,Canon, Sony, etc? I have a Nikon D5000 and love it!! It does everything that I want and much more. Just getting into the photo thing, almost as addictive as fishing.

How about retired Capt's?

Hey Scott, Is that a 1988? I think that I may have looked at that boat before I bought my 27'. Nothing catches fish like a Tiara!! I guess I need to get some pics of my rig. Nice looking boats11

When I take my Nikon I just stick the camera inside my coat. No Problems thus far. Havent taken it out in any really artic stuff yet. Mt cousin takes his D700 out in anything but a driving rain.

Nice Job! Hopefully the gills start around here soon.

....Or comes over to your home to use your computer!
