1mocast with the fish contrasted against the bottom has my vote...so far. But I have to admit that art seems permiate this contest in a way that would make Rembrandt take notice.

Not necessarily an artistic masterpiece But I have always loved this shot as it exemplifies the "Joy of Fly Fishing with True Friends"!

Happy Mark

Very nice photos fellas. Every time I think I have a favorite, a new one pops up.


This looks really cool. Jim could be a Hallmark Card's model. ;)

So I just spent a couple of hours going through my pictures from this summer alone, sorting, deleting, etc. and I think that rather than going back over all of the years worth of pictures I have, I will submit this one. It is special to me because it was a family hike up to a high mountain lake. I caught a lot of colorful brookies there, but this picture really stood out to me when I downloaded them at home. There was a fire nearby at the time, so the sky is a bit hazy, but this view of the massive mountains just dwarfing my two boys as they hiked out reminded me of the opening scenes from The Sound of Music. For me, being out in the great outdoors, especially with family, is a huge part of why I love our sport.

Way too many good pictures here, I feel inferior with my photo taking ability after after looking at these wonderful pictures, but here is a picture of a real colorfull smallie I got in a remote stream at a so. cal location a couple of years ago. I really liked this fish and will remember it for the rest of my days. Got it on the Winston. Nothing like a two weight.
