Fishing Lures With Box

Any ideas on how to store Star Wars figures?

Jul 22, 2009 by feeddaneed | Posted in Toys

My son is acquiring a large amount of the figures, and he would like to store them nicely. We are not worried about keeping them in Collector Condition, but we would like to keep them organized, each with their own respective "extras" (guns,

actually all these ideas are perfect but with weapons and stuff I would definitely get like a small ziploc bag that they have for small jewelry making for all that stuff and mark them to whom they belong to ;)

Custom fishing plug/lure drying box

This is a custom fishing plug/lure drying box that me and my friends put together. This is version 3.0 of the box. The box can dry up to 8 lures ...

Fishing Pictures, More Than Fish…

Friends- Go for candids and action shots especially those where the background really compliments the image.  If you’re on a boat you’ll be close so point and shoot cameras are fine as are SLRs with smaller lenses including wide angles.  Try to show your subject naturally participating in the process of fishing- casting, tying a knot, fighting or releasing fish etc.  My fellow angler  shown here was photographed before a classic Naples sunrise with a wide angle lens, flash and high ISO setting.   Questions about that?

Tackle- Big reels like those used offshore, flies, lures and rods  all make great subjects.  The key is to artistically put them in context.  A row of Marlin caliber reels against a blurred dockside background is catchy as are rods silhouetted against early or late day light.  For lures and flies, they can be positioned in your palm, on driftwood or dangled from a short length of leader.

Scenery- Here on the coast  a silhouette against our brilliant skies is a surefire ticket to a great photo.  If you’re on the beach try a shot framed to feature the angler and the foamy  surf line for a pleasing composition.  Out at sea?  Your subject backed by heavy breaking waves or frantically feeding birds will help tell the story.  Tip: Protect and fastidiously clean your camera gear on these jaunts.  Consider a sturdy dry box as your camera case.

When you add more than fish to fishing pictures you tell the tale of your outing and preserve more than just the catch.  So get out there and take advantage of SWFL’s weather, outdoor ambiance and fishery.  If you’d like to learn more about using the equipment or applying the techniques mentioned here to other forms of photography,  say “hello”…
