fish..it's what's for dinner

[-live-wire-]

Took the dog and the pole to the river Sunday..Saw some deer and turkey in the headlights..launched the boat just after sunrise, was so foggy I couldn't see my feet. I caught some nice trout and colorful perch. and generally had a great time. The weather was nice and the water was cold...took a few pictures along the way.

Thanks Troj ! There's nothing more peaceful than river fog and the sound of water rolling over the shoals....and the sound of my reel stripping line zzzzzzzzzztttt!

Yeah Luckz, these are actually what I call "pumpkin-seed perch" I have only caught them in clear-cold-water springs and trout rivers.. We have regular sunfish and bream which aren't near as colorful and prefer warmer water as well.


Thnks Steve ! Fish are the worst posers! Trying to manuver the fish in to suitable postion can be quite the task! The original picture is dominated with the greenish water..I used the "levels" to clear it up a bit...here is a larger version :



Thanks Living
