On ABPF, bruiser in action. You can spot Bruce a mile away, and I
think this sequence captures why.

I can't see that newsgroup. Is this some kind of joke at my expense ? ;-)
Not that there's a problem with that (g)


Well, um, yeah, it's looking that way right now ;-)

It's a series of shots that look like you were doing a funky two-step boogie -
possibly with a fish on the line.

Take heart - we've seen worse...

OK I remember now :-) Staged. No fish, and right after that I spooked a
rainbow off the bank that was bigger than anything I landed all week - it
looked more like the fish the other guys were catching (g).

Well, Bruce, that isn't it. I took several candid pictures of you
Friday morning. That was when the fish kept slipping away before I
could get a picture of them. The sequence has you in a couple classic
poses with rod held high and net low. It does look like some sort of
ballet. Personally I think it's complementary.

I know you talk about changing your casting style, but I hope you don't.
You're unique style is effective and it allows me to spot you in a crowd
or at a distance.

Picture #2 is about 3 seconds after a fish avoided your hold for the
picture. It's that empty handed disapointed look that comes when the
last 5 fish have been landed, but get away before you can set up the
pose.

The windmill is a casting style that gets the weighted leader, nymphs,
and strike indicator out to the right spot without tangling while
keeping the rod high to avoid drag. I would like to capture that
sequence one of these trips.

Goods pics!! It captured Bruiser's enthusiasm and enjoyment of the sport.
On the Ruby, my camera batteries died and I couldn't get any physical shots,
but Bruiser was fishing behind me on the way back to the car and I heard the
obligatory yell when he got into a fish that day. I turned back his way, and
even though I could just see his head he made sure to make the scorecard
when he held the fish up with both arms with excitement.

Bruce, I couldn't capture it on film, but that fish's scorecard has been is
burned into my mind. It was quite a nice fish, a creamy, golden,
yellow-sided brown trout!! Someday they'll figure out how to dump the
memory, and I'll make sure to download that shot.
