How do you guys get your picture so clear mine just go blurry when I go that close in.
I usually take a picture from further out and then crop the image, seems to work better than getting in too close, I use my iPhone to do it so it's easy to edit pictures, don't know what it would be like on an actual camera.

Ps those pike flies are spot on jimjams

Thanks, I have a lens for my bridge camera and a tripod to take the pics as my iPhone wasn't doing the job lol.

Yes Harpo, I've just got a set of cheapish gemini's, with a big behringer mixer! :)

:D I've got 1210's and a small Behringer mixer!
Better keep this to the 'what have you mixed today thread' :lol:

Scott, it's just an empty cupbboard with storage from lidl and a shelf thrown in! Simple's.

And yeah harpo! 1210's are the dog's danglies but i gave up my vinyl's a long time ago! My set up's on gumtree at the moment trying to gauge interest!

nice fleas, Jim! how are you attaching the goo-goo eyes? I've found giving the head a bit of pre-treatment with uv resin provides a  more resilient seat. when I've just stuck them on with insta-gel (proper waterproof stuff this!  :wink:) they still tend to get ripped off after a couple of attacks?

I've tried different ways of attaching those eyes and never seem to last, the last time I was fly fishing for pike I tied tube flies so it had the trailing treble and used jungle cock for eyes, lasted all day. Don't know if the eyes matter to the pike??

they seem to prefer ear-plugs in my experience... :lol:

Same as you Dave! I tend to build up a little base with uv, then super glue it to that, then a dab of uv again aroun the edge!
