Quick picture while fishing

Could not catch a fish to take a picture of so this will have to do.

Nice picture. Like they say fisherman fish and farmers farm! Nothing like fishing. I have also read that "The worst day fishing is better than the best day at work"! I tend to agree!

I've been out fishing every other day the past few weeks and all I've caught was a mangy dogfish. Lost a huge bass by not setting the hook, and a pike that bit through my line because I didn't have a steel leader all in the same day. Thinking about heading out on the lake today. But can't decide whether to just go night fishing instead

Two different days, ( spear fishing ), not the best but still ...............



...what I also do is remove all these lead weights from lost fishing lines from the sea bed. You see one at the top of the 8-pus. I have a great collection, and if I sell them to scrap, I will buy a new watch !!!!



...the watch comes as an extra
