  1. Take a look at some of the beautiful scale patterns I photographed in the last week. Most came from mirrors and one came from a hybrid goldfish. I set the camera setting on macro and focused in on a small, but interesting area of the carp's body. You don't realize how beautiful these fish are until you see some of these scales up close.

  2. Take a look at this stunning mirror that I landed today, Dec. 9. The fish was a brute but had one of the most beautiful scale patterns I have seen in a long time on a mirror (and we have some gorgeous mirrors around here). It had a number of HUGE golden scales that seemed to glow mixed in with some darker large scales around the mid section of the body. There were lots of smaller scales around the tail. Gotta love those mirrors....all so unique!

  3. I also echo all these sentiments for adding and running more events. All really good points. But, the key here is that we DESPERATELY need an events coordinator, a big job that requires a big commitment. Anyone out there interested......

  4. Talking yesterdays....yesterday was one of my best days of the fall with 20 fish landed in a three hour period. And, I had a bunch of decent ones like the mirror below. Rain and stormy weather was moving in and it had the carp charged up in the spot I was fishing.
