Doubletap Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 My first Van Isle Dolly Varden. A bevy of healthy stream resident Cutthroat. Wet wading on a fine summers day. I'm looking forward to the fall season and wish you all great luck with yours! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lorney Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 Thanks for sharing. Looks like some great fishing. Might have to spend a little more time out there. Might be out there in mid October in the Qualicum Beach area. Any suggestions for fishing around that time. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubletap Posted September 25, 2008 Author Share Posted September 25, 2008 Thanks guys - appreciate your kind words! Might be out there in mid October in the Qualicum Beach area. Any suggestions for fishing around that time. Thanks Its a little out of my neck of the woods, and as its more populated, I rarely go south when I go fishing, I'm afraid! Stop in at a local tackle store and they will no doubt know whats fishing where. Best of luck, to ya! I dig the macro of the eye.... Yeah, my girlfriend asked me to get some macro shots for some paintings she was working on - fish "skin" really is pretty - here are a few more. I didn't know what she was working on, exactly - then got this for my birthday! Its 14''x18'' oil on canvas and I love it! It was done from one of the prettiest Cutties I hit this summer.

bigbowtrout Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Sweet post and fish but WOW your GF has some talent there That is one awesome painting and I will offer up some bucks for a print Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doubletap Posted September 25, 2008 Author Share Posted September 25, 2008 Sweet post and fish but WOW your GF has some talent there That is one awesome painting and I will offer up some bucks for a print Yeah, she wields a paint brush with skill, there is no doubt! The Cuttie will be available once it gets digitalized - but first I need to find a frame that will accept the Elk Hair Caddis I caught it on. In the mean time, perhaps you Bow River anglers might prefer one of her other works? If you're interested, you might like to have a look through her website for some options - they are all pretty fishing-den friendly - ha ha! Amu Designs - Prints and customs. Hope you enjoy them as much as I do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubletap Posted September 26, 2008 Author Share Posted September 26, 2008 out of curiosity what model camera were the photos taken with? they are amazing Thanks for that. Its a Canon S3 IS and does a pretty good job - especially in the macro dept. Its almost time to upgrade to the S5 IS, though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My girlfriend wanted me to thank you again for the gratis casting lesson you gave her this afternoon, at the Haig Brown festival. You're a good teacher and it really helped her form. We're West-bound in the morning to see whats swimming in the Tahsis, the Gold and the Heber tomorrow - and shes looking forward to putting her new-found knowledge to good use. Huw.
