looks nice

for what, casting at their hull?

looking good! coming together real nice.

thanks, guys it was kind of funny, i'd walked up the bank to change lures, and saw the shot, so i told him to hold steady in his casting position. Then he pulls the rod back and gets snagged in the branch above him.

there was another time i was backpacking in Big Bend NP, Texas, this time with my older sister. we had one tent, and after dark i'm trying to go to sleep, but she's scared of every little noise and wants me to stay awake until she can go to sleep. finally, around 1 in the morning i am fed up...

last weekend went to the Lake of the Ozarks, fished all evening from the bank. caught 5 or 6 largemouth around 12-14", nothing huge but had a great time. Mostly on dark plastic lizards sloooow jigged off the bottom. was using a lightweight 5' spinning rod with 4 lb test, that always adds to...

welcome, and photobucket is what most people use. good luck on your build!

yeah i've looked at the gimp, sounds good. ND filters are next on my list, 4x and 8x for daytime waterfalls, plus the polarizer. bh photo is a place i've been lookin at, i always check around online for the best price.

thanks guys! so far just the sony software that came with the camera. i shoot in RAW, and usually only tweek things a bit, like curves, white balance and exposure if needed. i also use some Cokin square filters i had with my old camera to help with some shots.

well i finally bought a digital camera, me the technophobe, the guy who did not even have internet at home until about 2 months ago. said goodbye to my old minolta 35mm and got a nice sony alpha 230 dslr. i've always loved photography but hated the expense of film and developing, those days...

GO CHIEFS! no they have not been moved to the Arena Footbal League. yet.

oh yeah; walking out to your deer stand before dawn, and a turkey flying off the roost 20 feet above your head, the way it breaks the silence gets my heart racing every time.

a few years back i was backpacking alone for a few days in arkansas, i was fixing dinner at dusk when i noticed the reflection of eyes (you know, that glowing in the light look) off in the trees. if i barely moved it would go away. within a few minutes i started noticing more and more, but...

i used a combination of a tight fit, and also attaching a 2x2 runner along the bench seats, and then use that as a mounting surface. the only holes i drilled are through the seats. and i made an elongated inboard transom to attach the rear hatches.

i'm not familiar with that exact charger, but i use a schumaker too. mine has a switch for standard or deep cycle, i use deep cycle and you should too. mine has 2,10 or 50amp jump start. i use 2amp and you should too. batteries do not like to be boiled over, so you may want to have them...
