Looks like you're fighting with a big catch, Charlie! Don't let 'im go! I like the streaks of glare flickering through this image. I agree, this will be fun to see what people come up with.

An interesting photo, Charlie. Reminds me of an old bait casting reel I had as a kid (I still have it). Nice abstract image with the play of light catching my eye as it roams around the image.

I guess that this shows why these things are called thumb-burners. It does look like your drag is getting a bit too hot. This is what happens when you hook an alligator on a bass pole. This is a very interesting image and I can vizualize it hung in Dr. Frankenstein's lab.

Casting reels were a real pain. If you didn't get the right amount of thumb into them, you got a backlash tangle that kept you busy while the fish ate your bate. As a kid I dreamed of catching fish but caught few. when I grew up i got even a little .
