Hi gang, some bonefishing porn 4 U

[Henry]

Just a couple pics to warm you up. Both were taken at Savannah Sound Eleuthera

The first image is large. As for the second image, I hope you got the fish quickly back in the water after the photo was taken.

Is there an written and/or unwritten guideline regarding the size of photo's posted? If so, I truly appologize. I am still a newby here and not fully familiar with all of the forum rules. It was my intention to share a scene that many of us can likely relate to. Wherever bonefish are to be found, piles of conch shells and fishing boats are certain to be part of the scenery. I will reduce the size of any subsiquent photos I submit.

Regarding the photo of the bonefish...Yes! it was indeed quickly returned to the water after a couple quick photo's. I might point out that the fish went untouched by human hands. You see, I chose to beach this fish as I am often want to do (when fishing alone) in preference to "Hi-sticking" my rod and potentially snapping a tip (re: 14 foot leader). One added advantage of this method is fish can be landed and released in a much greener state as opposed to being exhausted to the point where they can be easily brought to hand.

I have the greatest respect for the fish I am fortunate enough to fish over and catch.

Best regards,

The conch pile is alive and well I see. What's the rest of the story. How was the fishing in general and any really hot spots? My pals and I are headed to Eleuthera for our annual trip March 2-16.

The photo's are from my trip to L'utra last March. We lucked out with the weather the first full week in March...tropical heat-wave. This was my first trip there so we didn't get to check out many spots...Govenor's, Balara, 10 bay, S. Palmetto, Savannah and Tarpum bays. The fish were tough and I only landed 9 on the fly for 6 days of fishing. I'll be better prepared fly wise this March/April.

I think I met you and your pal at Balara last March. It was your last day and you were leaving for home shortly.

Great pics, Henry!

Speaking of weather.. http://www.weather.com/outlook/travel/print/BFXX0002

Henry, great photos. As for picture size. The new forum sofware will resize the pics for you automatically to a viewable size. Don't worry about that.

Quick - When I use my computer at work (after work of course) with the fast connection speeds the pics resize. But when I go home and go back to dialup--124-3 they do not. That could be the issue.
