Eric,

I’m fortunate enough to have a pro photo shop about two miles from the office.

[Buzz Bryson]

Since I can’t imagine reviewing photos on the trail or water, I’m limiting my thoughts to being “on the road”.

[Buzz Bryson]

Not to jump in front of Zach, but since I’m taking a lunch break, I’ll chime in.

I’ve used most of the short/wide Nikkor lenses, since I shoot quite a bit in boats, and can only back up so far.

[Buzz Bryson]

Tim,

I’d agree on 5-wt.

[Buzz Bryson]

And here’s a 100% size crop from that image.

Here’s one from 12-24 that FFSW used as double truck (well, if I attached it correctly).

OK, trying again.

[Buzz Bryson]

So where’s Ian.

[Buzz Bryson]

Tough order.

While most tripods are aluminum, carbon fiber or the like, the aluminum might not be anodized, and will thus corrode.

[Buzz Bryson]

Sure, tripod is Gitzo’s Basalt Model 1198 (almost as light as graphite, somewhat cheaper (not much)).

[Buzz Bryson]

Of the Nikon DX (digital) zooms I’ve tried, the 17-55 has been the sharpest.

[Buzz Bryson]

Zach,

You do realize that you’ll be fishing in the heart of Southern Baptist country.

[Buzz Bryson]

Tim,

I fish with sinking lines all the time.

[Buzz Bryson]

Gary,

Ditto what Zach said.

[Buzz Bryson]

The Roanoke River in northeastern NC has a big spawing run of stripers in the spring.

[Buzz Bryson]

All I can say is that we were very careful to stay in the middle of the boat when we were there.

[Buzz Bryson]

I’m not FFF certified, for no particular reason.

[Buzz Bryson]

When I was down at Baja with Rick Pope and crew last summer, we went squid fishing.

[Buzz Bryson]

Zach,

See SW post.

[Buzz Bryson]

Zach,

You’ll need to look at the camera’s histogram.

[Buzz Bryson]

Did I mention that the pro lab here in the Raleigh area has cut way back on E-6 processing?
