Grant,

They are pretty for sure, but the one on thge picture is actually not as nice as they come. I posted an image of a really beautiful one caught by my friend Jens in the podcast I published today

The American Shad will be in

The American Shad will be in soon. When I go next (that is, when my arm recovers) I'll bring a camera. I will be working in DC today, right across the street from the famous Watergate Hotel, and I will probably stop in at the boathouse on my way home. I give you all a report.

thanx for good word. hi hi.

thanx for good word. hi hi. frankly'speaking this was my third ( had 3 in 2005) fish from my own sea. i was fishin' bornholm 4 times but this year I've just had to miss my trip. our coast is placed far away from the ideal landscapes I remember from Denmark. Rocky places are short but the advantage is lack of anglers.so we just have to find some other places and then I promise i'll invite You to check things out. how about it?? photos?? how to put it here?

Very nice scenery, b

Very nice scenery, beautiful fish, overall an amazing picture. One thing, if I must nitpick: the glare off the fish, from the flash, is a bit of a harsh element to the photo. Excellent picture!

Regarding the forum and database response time you may be right. The system has to shift between two databases (but on the same server) when going from GFF in general to the forum and back and this can take time... but several seconds seems to be way too much. I'll see what I can do. Haven't seen the problem myself.

It seems much faster since this weekend. I think you fixed it while you were messing around elsewhere. If it slows down again, I'll let you know where.

Mike,

Yup. Fooled around with a module for the forum yesterday, and even though it was not as simple as in the old one, I got it to work in the end.

Bob,

Great to hear that fishing is good! Any pictures to post? I'd love to see the places, the fish and your happy face when you hold up those large shad!

Tom,

I know the Pentax cameras and was pretty close to buying one a while back. But I decided against it, mostly because my trusty Canon still was (and is) going very strong.

Once it gives in, I will certainly consider a truly waterproof camera. Olympus has one too, which I just saw this past week. Nice cameras both of them.

And yes, more Hickory Shad today and an American Shad as well. I am embarrased to tell you how many Hickorys I caught today. Lets just say that it was more than all of the others that I have caught in my life. I caught one that measured a full 22" long and weighed three pounds. I had to think it was an American, but no. Just a big roe Hickory. Several 15-25 pound Striped bass were caught before dawn on bait. Amazing fishery right in Washington, DC.

Hi Martin,

I like

Hi Martin,

I like your article. When I have to take pictures I normally use my Nikon digital SLR.

However when wading fishing, taking such an equipment with you, has some risks. For this purpose I purchased following P&S camera, which is waterproof for 1.5 meters! You can also use it easily with gloves and wet and slimy fingers. In my point of view an excellent sportfishermans camera: Pentax Optio WP

In your gallary you will find an example of the results. Look for my picture of releasing a small brown trout.

Congrats!

Maciasd,

Congratulations! Great to hear that fish can be caught on the Polish coast too. Any pictures?

Martin

They don't come any nicer.

They don't come any nicer. Beautiful Bow.

Quicktime

Brian,

I'm afraid that Win98 is a bit dated when it comes to playing all the new formats found on the web, and the format Steve has used for the video podcast is one of Apple's latest.

Maybe their Quicktime Player can play it in the Win98-version. I don't know.

It is a couple of we

It is a couple of weeks before the trout opener here in Northern Michigan (last Saturday in April). I stumbled across your article and pictures while looking for good pictues of Denmark. Although I've dreamed of making the trip, I have yet to visit my great grandfather's homeland. These pictures and love of flyfishing across the globe are outstanding! Thanks!

Since you got this far …

A money box
The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
