photo help

pig n jig · 06-16-06, 11:32 PM

I found it to be difficult to try to measure and photo the fish while trying to get everything set for the photo needed.I was trying to hurry to get the fish back in the water, I don't like to leave them out for very long. I had everything set, then the fish flopped, I have a difficult time judging how close to be to get everything in , but close enough to get a good picture. Any help would be appreciated.

Holding the fish upside down while holding the gills shut will calm the fish down right away, I'd try holding it like that and then set up the pic real quick Other than that I don't think I can be much of a help.

ivan,
don't fault yourself! you've obviously have hooked in to one of those
"meth heads" bass that NY is so famous for. Looks like this one was the
'cooker', its going to be your civic duty to go back and hook him again and turn him over to authorites

just put light pressure on its body with your hand...fish won't jump or move after a couple attempts, if that.

they really stand out from alot of bands some of the most badass guitar solos ive heard in awhile

HulaPopr · 06-20-06, 08:41 PM

Yeah, they've got 2 really talented guitarists, not to mention easily the best drummer of any big name band out there.

True, but he's at least one of the better drummers out there, theres no denying that.

I had the same problem. I finally had to have my wife snap the photo while I held the fish down. Those smallies sure can flip and flop around lots!
