I have 2, but the one I use most is, a Canon 40d. Buying the camera body is the cheep part. Lenses, flash and all the other goodies really add up. I use a 17-40L for the Fish and Landscape shots. It's great going back through the old photos and seeing how much every one has changed. Go ahead and post some of your work Jeff.

Thanks Josh. Personally I think that Johnson Outdoors has done a great job improving there products.

Well Robert I have two reels that need rods. You could buy them for me:D:D Extra Inline planers are always nice. Extra divers work well also.

Tim, buy the looks of your boat and equipment, a good set up for you would be; 4 riggers with spoons on the poles that have 20 pound mono on them. Vary the length of your leads. The rigger pole that is deepest should be your shortest lead. Use the back riggers for your deeper sets. The two side riggers should be set 5-15' higher than the back one, and the lead should be 10-20' back farther. On the two rod holders on the side use: 1 diver and 1 core line. The diver rod should be one of the heavy rods loaded with 30-50 pound braided line on a line counter reel. Set the dive at 1.5-2 setting and run a flasher/fly combo 6-8' behind it. The rod holder holding the diver will get set at a 90 deg angle (horizontal to the water). That holder will be the one closest to the rigger. The other holder (the one in front of the diver holder) should get set at a 30+- deg. angle and used to hold the core line that goes out to a inline planer board. After letting all the core out, attach the inline planer to the line and let 100+' more out (let it out straight behind the boat) after you put that rod in the holder, it will pull out to the side. The idea of a good presentation, is to form a V. The deep rigger is the bottom of the V and the core would be the top. You will also have a horizontal V. With the back rigger the front of the v and the core the back. The theory her is; if a Salmon comes up to look at the back rigger, but doesn't like it, soon another presentation will follow a bit higher. Salmon will always feed up. This is a good search and destroy presentation. If all the fish are at the same depth, than target that depth. There are some very good "how too" in this section of the site.

Kevin, I belive your unit uses a compass to keep you on a heading.

The more big O porn , the better;) Welcome to our site.

It may be a good idea to PM Bill.

Welcome Scott, and thanks for clarifying that. I run mine at 22".

Tim It makes it nicer when you in-bed the pics in the post. Do you know how to do that? If not do this; hit edit and change the to on both the front and back side of the link.

Great image Captain Drew. And thanks for the report.

Welcome Scott.

His book "Keating on Kings" would be a good read for you also. He is from your area.

It's what fishing should be, FUN! Is that Dad and Grandpa in pic 2?

For those that don't understand what Kyle is asking. They come from the factory rigged in the less action hole.

I fixed the links Tim. She looks like she's fully loaded and ready to catch fish.

Welcome aboard Tim! You will find and get all the advice you need here. Unfortunately we still have 2.5 months before you can use it.

That was cool Rob. Was it hard to make?

Very cool Nick.

You and I think alike Frank. Try this link

Thanks Bob, and welcome to the site.

Kyle, I've asked this question before also. The answer I got was about %90 for the high action hole.

Why do you want the 6'6" rods?

Thanks for the report John. Nice work to you and Nick.

Great looking pup. Lab are some of the best companions out there.
