Nice fish Parker! Good background scenery too. I agree with what Dan said about filling in foreground (your face and fish) with the cam flash when bright background is present, or back lit by the sun, it's important for brightening up the chromers.

And Salmo? Hell to pay?? What "Hell"? I just took exception to your bash of STS, and rightfully so. Especially in light of you mentioning in your e-mail to me that you haven't even looked at an STS magazine for years! How does that work? ... As for the double standard, I don't ever recall bashing you or any named individual (as you post accused above) within the NMFS or Col. Tribal Comm. when I rightfully criticized the wrongs those entities have brought upon the sportfishers; that have paid for fish that we are being denied our Treaty and Federal Court ordered even split of. Just like you didn't name Bill or I in your take of STS. So I fail to see a "double standard" at all! Your critcism of STS (of old - what is was years ago) is your rightful opinion; as is rightful defense of that publication. Mine and other member's criticism of NMFS/Col.T.Comm. was more obvious fact than opinion - without naming you or other individuals. NO double standard! ... Not an angry reply here - just want to set this straight. Peace. - RT
