Fished three water bodies the other day in the beautiful Texas Hill Country. The bite was GREAT! Caught a bunch of nice Redear,Bluegill,and a couple of bass. Water bodies were in good shape,clear water,with good current. Fish were in 4 to 8 feet of water holding by or in grass beds. Both float and bottom techniques were used. Fished from 7am till 1pm and caught around 50 nice fish. Fish were fat,healthy,and full of fight.Left them biting. Worms were the bait of choice. Most were released but some were kept for the dinner table. Having a GREAT Hill Country sunfish bite. It just don't get any better. fish

Banker some phones allow you to touch the screen and focus only on the spot you touch. Try touching the screen on the fish and then taking the shot. Might help the focus, might not, but easy enough to try!

Nice redear! cheers


I like my fishing like a whino likes his wine!

Thanks Hunter,Bod,and Red snappa for the replies. cheers Red snappa: I use a very cheep camera. It is small and very easy to you use. coolio I also have my right index finger in a brace due to a small bone fracture. bang This has made it hard to adjust the focus for close up shots. juggle Got two more weeks to ware the brace. nuts Even without the brace I would manage someway to mess up a picture! hammer
