nice fish! i was bummed to see; however, that in the third photo the fish is being held at least three feet out of the water. please try to keep it within 24" of the water at all times. thanks. ; )
great stuff as always from Jay!
Hiddeous creatures, those brookies. Yuk. Like swimming rats.
24" from the water? Shouldn't it be 18"? Jeez dude...
Nicely done My man!

Remember - fish are not designed to breath out of water.
Thank you for your comments and the feedback! I do appreciate it. Well stated about the fish being to high out of the water. This is something I try and keep in check and failed to do in the third shot. Definitely a "no, no" if a fish were to break loose and hit the water deck from whee I had it positioned. Good call.
Regards,
Shit really???? 24" I mean come on. I'm sure no fish were harmed in the taking of these pics. Most of the Slabs of the Month are clear out of the water. Shame on you heartless bastards :)
Nice pics.
Nate1031, I would like to hold you underwater!
Yeah, 24" is FAR more dangerous they 2" right?
Great pics of some beautiful fish. 24" really? Getting pretty picky.
nice images Jay!.... I think everyone missed the sarcasm in nate1031 post, too funny.
The two are pals just for the record ; ) lol
Jay, nice work as always. Dig the one with the Galvan in it, that red reel sets it off.
As always, great stuff Jay. One of my favorite Fly Fishing Photogs around.
I thought the general rule was 6 feet?
guy in the blue shirt, who does your nails? Sweet pictures.

Grizz: A professional hand model was used in these pictures, and I think he uses the same nail salon that performed Nich's manicure for the current This is Fly.
Sick stuff Jay.
Like alwasy Jay great pictures. Did you by chance do some artistic pp on that talked about 3rd shot?

Thank you for the comments. Jim, actually on this shot I did not do much post production. I did however turn my color settings up in camera. There are various color presets that can be chosen, Standard, Nuetral, Vivid. etc. I bumped up the Vivid color set and the colors really pop.
Also, not sure if you can tell, but in the third shot there is some rain coming down in the background hitting the water. It was overcast with just a slight burst of sun shining through. I wished on that second day the weather was a little better. I think the colors in the sky and background would have turned out better. Oh well. ;)
I would like to propose not to hold off until you get enough cash to buy goods! You should just take the mortgage loans or financial loan and feel comfortable
