Default Huge Bluegills!!

Well they weren't huge, but the hybrids weren't cooperating so My dad and I had some fun catching some gills when he was in town visiting! Any type of fishing with my dad is the best fishing! And I got to experiment with my new camera lens! Hope you like the shots!

Yeah, those are some cool photo's, excellent action quality. I love the one where you can see the extended dorsal fin breaking the surface,

It is a NIKON D90. With the NIKON 70-200 f/2.8 lens. I am just starting to take fish pics with it. I really want to get a giant striper or muskie thrashing around in the water. So if anyone wants to take me in there boat and catch a big striper, I will take tons of photos! HAHA!

I am also going tarpon fishing in the end of May. I really want to get a jumping tarpon shot!

Great shots and I fully agree with the dad time.

Me and mine are hitting the Caney for his first exposure to trout on the fly Sunday.

Nice pics. Being a father I can tell you that your dad is loving you going fishing with him. Out of all the fishing I do that one day a week my son and I go together means more to me than anything....catching fish or not.....there are no words that can describe those trips.

My mother-in-law lives in the Sarasota area. So I will be fishing down in that area/tampa bay area over Memorial weekend. I have never fished for them! I am pumped!

Yeah, I love fishing with my dad. Especially now that he still lives in MN. I used to fish atleast once a week with him. Now it is more like just a few times a year. I really miss it. But we do all we can when he visits! My poor mother! HA!

Start following the reports here;

http://www.floridasportsman.com/regions/southwest/

Ask if anyone needs a partner to split expenses. I have done this often and you meet some great people. Tarpon and snook should be on at that time, good luck. You will crap when your first Tarpon jumps, wow.

Thanks for the info! I have actually been following that forum pretty regularly. They have been more than helpful!
