I love fly fishing! I no longer have the time to fish as much as I would like to. But growing up, it was my main passion. This is an "Everglades" model made by Ted Juracsik on the east coast of Florida - they make the finest fly fishing reels in the world! Big thanks to Suby for assistance on border!

I like the way the light falls on this one.
I don't know too much about fly fishing, but it always looks so calm when I see it portrayed on TV.

I love your photo, the metallic look is great as well as the presentation. I did fly fish a couple of time, but I enjoyed sitting at the water edge more (looking around and taking photos). Thanks for your nice comments on my photos.

Hi Jerry. Thanks for your comment on my site. Made me browse through yours too. I like this one especially, but as you might have guessed, I have a certain feeling about macros. Another thing: Your passion for your wife Linda shines through several of your pics. Wonderful:-)

@Henrik: Thanks Henrik - I'm delighted to find your wonderful blog! I appreciate you visiting me - I always get inspiration and some tips from talented people like you! Linda still trips my trigger....
