Bass fishing
Caught this very sucessful fisherman this morning. I pass this flooded field every morning and always have the camera ready and this is one time it payed off. The last four days there was nothing at all in the field. I will post another shot as well.
E5 70-300 @600mm eq 1/1000 f11 ISO 1250

Here is shot just after the catch. I thought it was different enough to be interesting. First one is cropped some this was not as it was closer.

Great catch. If only I was such a good fisherman. I hadn't realized they would take something that big.

Kendall - you get the most interesting shots. That is one big fish to swallow, but I've seen them do it.

Looks awfully big for a heron to eat, but go for it.
