I posted the picture to Photosig,

Thanks Chas. Those are funny pictures. I was having a better than
usual
time that morning with all the fish. Can't quite figure out #2 but I
do put
my flyrods through a fairly unconventional workout. Willi says I look
like
a windmill.


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.

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