    Mike,
    How does one know or differentiate a “little manistee strain hen” from a plain old steelhead?

    Thanks folks for indulging me:). So I just spent 90.00 on a Xrite Color Checker. Your logic swayed me from my gray card evil.

    I feel all color correct already:)))

    Your comments re- black and white point compensation control is something I hadn’t explored with any rigour.

    And my kids say I’m beyond hope- pfft

    Joel, you are suppose to stand downstream of the two 3/4″ rebar pieces sticking up out of the habitat improvement above the surface film. That usually takes care of one end of the problem. 🙂

    Sorry you have such jerks on your water. As has been said, I think they are everywhere.

    I think I see what you are getting at- your just way to subtle for this simple guy:)).

    Your reference to hue/sat/ and the color card use makes sense and that was my query:)))

    someday I will learn this subtle stuff:))))

    Hi David

    Yep I blew out the background a bit – but after the gray card WB correction. So that would be a curves/levels issue not a WB one? No?

    Bear with me I’m seriously clueless here-

    Pics look great on my PC/CRT Neal.

    Out of curiousity what is the advantage of the color card over a simple gray card. Wouldn’t color correcting the reference gray card image give the same result or do you use the color card differently. I was just insurance documenting my pipe collection and used a gray card reference.

    Bring at least a 7 if you are fishing Ohio.

    Rob,

    PM me your details and possibly we can give thanks to steelhead.

    And in most applications…how many folks are tossing longer than 30 feet of flyline…add another 10 feet of leader/tippet you are at 40 feet.

    I throw way more than 30ft in my drift boat.  At certain times of the year you gotta throw long if you want to catch fish.  Big mid summer smallies are boat shy.  We throw 60+ on 7-8-9 weights often.  However, on 4wts, a different story.  

    Back to DTs… Another thing you can do is cut them in half.  

    I did this for a 3wt setup I have.  Basically cut the fly line in half, store one half in the box, keeping it clean and brandy new.  Use up the other half.  Two for the price of one!

    Here are some ideas to get “budget” lines……….

    Go to your local fly shops and ask them is they have any of last years lines laying around.
    They may sell them to you cheap.

    Or ask them is they have any 2nd hand line from guys that have brought their reels to be respooled.

    D90.

    I’m not crazy about either of the kit lenses listed there, but the D90 will be a solid performer for you. You will definitely like the external dedicated buttons for ISO, WB, and all the other stuff.

    I have the 55-200VR lens and use it often and its actually pretty decent.

    Strange thread:))

    Dan- enter away dude:))) hope you win:)))))

    Why on earth would a regular Joe fly fisher with a great pic not enter for the chance to win some free gear. It’s a freakin promotional contest . This is not a new idea aimed at gutting the livelyhood of the freelance photographic community. Been happenning for ages.

    There have been a pile of words posted around these issues raised in a number of threads and forums. What seems a bit obvious and equally obviously irreversable is that the market for freelance photographers has changed.

    While internet access to a greater number of images from non-professional sources ( re- cheaper/more abundant widgets) has
