first photo is an outer canal in one of the impoundments at lake
mattamuskeet. they did some cleaning over the last two years, as it
used to be choked with alligator weed. tough to get in this one...round
trip requires 6 different portages out of one canal, across land, into
next canal. a kayak wouldn't be too bad, but a 120 lb gheenoe, motor,
cooler, gas can, fishin stuff...well, i doubt i'll ever do it solo
again. bass and scene in first post in thread above were of bass from
this impoundment and view of a portion of the impoundment. used to be a
great bass spot, not so much anymore...but still a pretty place. saw
deer, nutria, beaver, hawk, heron, wood ducks, snowy egret, teal...

other photos are sunrise on the lake...also a pleasant spot.




sunrise, jerry....sunrise! but, the sunsets on the western shore of the
lake are equally pleasing. sunsets just symbolize and portend an end i'm
trying to ignore at my age...

historically, jim and i are getting the boat in the water somewhere when
the sun is popping up, or still trying to trick a fish when it's
disappearing. but, we're getting old and figure we'd better savor some
of these exquisite moments before our dirt nap. so, we sleep a little
later and quit fishing a little earlier...or he does.g i've got
photos to take cause, given the rapidly diminishing brain cells, i've a
need for tangible memories. did i mention i'm getting old?

seriously though...lake mattamuskeet offers some of the best photo
opportunities for a professional photographer interested in sun, water,
and wildlife.
