| How many of you have caught a nice fish while fishing alone and tried to take a picture of it? After the first production run of TripleD's I ran out to the lake and popped this dandy in less than an hour. Gotta say... the bait passed the test.

Normally, I'd just release the fish without a photo... but felt this one needed documentation so I tried to use the timer on my camera. I'd like to see some other self portraits for comparison (to either make me feel better about mine or make me look like an idiot). There has to be a good way to do this. Any suggestions?

P.S. Have I hyped the TripleD enough yet (ha ha). Let me know when I'm bordering on obnoxious[:praise:] |

| I sit my camera on the console and kneel on one knee to get to the same level, about 6 feet away. Trial and error will get you so you know how far away to be. Try a "dry" run on the boat with your hands in the air or hold a 4 ft ruler.

| Both of yours look allot better than my solo shots. I have ones of fish cut off, parts of me, parts of the fish..etc.etc. I have given up trying to take good pictures alone and just take one of the fish in the water before I net it.
JLong...
You have me excited...What is Triple D and how do I get one?

| What I tried that seems to work the best is to keep the camera as far away as possible, center it over something in the boat (like a seat)....then crop the picture after you get it developed or downloaded. That way you won't cut off any parts.
