I like today's photo, Mike.  Sets a mood.  Different.

Thanks Lynda.  My wife asks me why I take photos, as each trip's photos are all the same: fish, lakes, food, sunsets.  I hate it when she's right.  So this past year I worked hard at looking at things a little differently.  Your comments were affirming, and much appreciated. 

Mike

OK i enjoy the PODs all the time and never comment.
i agree, this is a great picture, it does set a mood. pleasing to focus on the quiet sheltered foreground and just as great to focus as far out as you like. thanks!

Mk and Ziski - many thanks! 

Yeah, I can't wait to go back.  Locked in on three trips, and two more in the talking stage.

Hey Mk631, thanks for the kind words. 

I've never commented on a name before, but are you related to R2-D2?

Ouch!!

Judging by what I see today, that's been there for an hour or two at least. It also looks like a barbed treble.

Knocking on wood...

Cry For me, that's another good reason to go barbless. The hook in my accident was large and barbed, could only be remove via scalpel. Luckily it was the last day of the trip.

Has there ever been a QJ thread on hook insertion / removal stories???

Oh man.... I'm so glad the Q went barbless.  My trip last year had me burying a single hook into the webbing between my fingers.  I simply backed it out and it never even bled.  Now, if there was a barb there I would have been in a world of hurt.

I say go barbless no matter what.  That pic is painful to look at. But a good one to boot!

Yeah, while the others debated how to get this nasty treble out, I snapped the pic.  Then I started watching the face of the guy who had the hook in him....not wanting him to faint!   I suggested he sit down, and we eventually got the damn hook out.  It all started when a small northern he was bring in, jumped into the boat, up against his arm!

You mean he had a thrashing northern impaled to his arm??
