I want a new picture for the front page of this site!!

I'm looking for new fishing pictures for the front page of the site. If you have a picture from this year, send it in and we'll vote on it. You can e-mail them to me and I'll adjust it for size....

Thanks...

John

Steve, that wahoo was 100 % alive and kicking and i am just glad i still have all my fingers. I was putting it in the fish locker when they took that picture, but I agree with you I would have like to see that blood washed away before the picture was taken. As for the electric reel in the picture just so people know that is for deep drop bottom fishing ( 600 ft plus) it saves wear and tear on your arms when checking your bait.

Steve - last year in Boston Harbor on a 15 foot older Boston Whaler?

I'd like to have the front page for this year's fish (and prefferably bass) but let's hear what everyone else says...

John how about that fish from the CT River I posted last week. 40+lb fish, in the dark, head lamp etc real striper kind of stuff only the water is a little funny tasting. Did I mention he caught it on a 7' St Croix rod.

Here's the pic that On the Water ran on their site for a week. About 1/4 mile from that other sweet spot you liked the looks of , tight lines.

Of course my Cape Internet was bought by OneMain, then Earthlink and now I've got to move all the files over...fun, fun. Just checked this thread and see the red X, so this one needs to be moved over too.

Patrick - Thanks for ruining my morning. :P

John - right about the spot, right about Mr. Kav's old boat, but a few years further back. He has had a new Pro-Liner for the past couple of years now.

Have always loved that picture, not just cause it was my first keeper, but with the lighthouse in the background, Dave took a perfect shot. I had it blown up and it hangs on my dining room wall. With any luck, I'll see what we can do about a picture from this year after this weekend.

My vote is for that last bass. The one of the man in the surf. That's Jeff H? Nothing against the other wonderful bass and wahoo submitted but that one just looks like an adventure that I'm looking for. Pretty inpiring the way the wash is coming out over the back.

John, your right they plan on using it for the http://www.ctriverstripers.com site. I just look at that picture and my heart rate goes up 20 beats. Stripers on the dark what can be better than that. Hey we need to fish this year........

Bunch of cool pics... JeffH, fantastic fish man and great to see that I'm not the only one who uses a headlamp. John always busts on me about it...

This brings up a good point for your site John. A photo gallery for members... A bragging board (credit: Got Stripers). Would be especially cool when one of us gets a huge fish, goes on a great trip, catches exotic fish like that wahoo, etc.

Also, photos of the leading fish for each tournament could be up there...

Just a thought. Let us feed our egos a bit.

Hey I just would like everyone to know that isn't me in the picture it's my friend Steve H, I have hair. Steve is one of those guys who could pull a 30lber out of a bathtub and has a few 50's to his credit.

i have to correct you . its the picture posting police . the mattress police come after you when you remove those tags on the end of a mattress ( remove under penalty of the law).

Patrick

Yeh - but that's your mom. Don't forget - she's seen you starkers in the tub when your were just a baby. Besides - she laughed thej, why would now be any different...

Clammer - I'm only half done with those pics but I can get them finished this weekend... I want to put more up anyway... I can scan just about anything for a normal photo - I can even make this fish look big if you want to... Not passing on the invites - just not getting out and we've had a couple things come up this week. My mother had surgery this week - she's soing fine but that's reduced my enthusiasm too.

The last time I was out was the morning after seeing you at the bucky run. Fortunately, the guys running the two netted gate on your side of the bridge were missing alot of herring. I was watching you scooping them up while Pete and Repeat spent their time missing fish as they took 60 seconds to check their empty nets after every 30 seconds :P . Those missed fish were going into my net on the other side of the bridge...

I must say I had a great time out with Clammer and John, thanks for the invite. I'm still crawling out of the doghouse but it was a worthwhile trip. My feet finally warmed up enough to fall asleep about 15 minutes before the 2 year old sounde revillie. It's great to be awake all night on Memorial Day weekend and not be deployed or on an exercise.
