To help you keep the faith or to at least help you remember those special days I’m including a few wallpaper sized images. Let me know what you think of these shots. Feel free to copy them and use them on your computers.

Seeing a bass working the curl is pretty cool stuff.

There’s a time to work the white water and a time to back away just a bit.

Just one question. While you are photographing these amazing sceens do you then rush back to the water with your rod? :D

Tynan19,

I had just finished filming a few hundred bass underwater with a cool new 100 degree, zero distortion lens...I didn't need the tug at the other end of the line to make my day any better.

Is that the guy's plug or something getting eaten just in front of the wave under the gull?

Fish_Eye I bet that gets the blood pumping. I can see why you don't need to wet a line. Great shots just put one up at work.

All of a sudden I feel a cold coming on, no, maybe a sore throat...

Boy do those pictures make you want to wet a line!!

Although there is a bass feeding in the curl of the wave on the first picture, you can certainly imagine what’s going on under the suds in all these pictures.

Damn, nice wallpapers. I'm already using one at my workstation @ work, and people are already commenting on "how cool is that"....

Awesome shots. The first one, with the bass in the wave, is great.

Were those photos taken this week?

Our angling legacy includes those great spots where bass stands once stood. Nowadays the rusted remnants still mark spots that are well worth working.

Here an artistic look at one of them:

Jugstah, Are you running windows XP ??

If you are just:

right click on all these pictures

then on Save as

then on save

this should have saved all the pic's in the My Pictures folder in My Documents

Now go any where on your desk top and right click the screen

then hit properties

then screen saver

then were you choose which pic you want for your screen savers Choose My Pictures Slide show

then hit apply and ok.

Now you will see all the pic from the my picture folder become your screen saver!!!

So if there are pictures in the folder you don't want as a screen saver then move them to a new folder and they will not show. Now you have cerated a coustom Screen saver!!

I had a bunch of family pic in the folder with my kids before this!! I just remove them and replace with these.

Good Luck!!

Oh yeah, I know how to do that. I work with PCs for a living. I thought maybe you had a ton of pictures to offer in a screensaver executable to share with the rest of us fishermen. :)

Here's a shot from yesterday. The calm before the storm. Calm seas and little wind -- sandwiched between days of 40 knot winds and high seas.

Those beach pics sure didn't look like that on Saturday! The birds were there, the fish was there, but so was the 30 knot wind. One dink and that was it.
