Looks like a peaceful way to spend your day.
Hey Doug, this is really cool looking to capture a fisherman in action.
It's funny, I used to fish, growing up in Minnesota with our 10,000 lakes, it's hard to fish.
But what's funny now is, I couldn't imagine having the patience to fish anymore. I just couldn't do it! But I do have the patience to wait for hours on end for the right light when photographing, so I guess I do have some kind of patience still?
PS. If you click on the Create Thread too quick before you click on the "Insert Full Image" button, so now the photo gets put in as a Thumbnail, it's easy to fix. Just click on "Edit" at the bottom of your post. Then click on "More Options". This will bring back up the edit window with the photos you uploaded as thumbnails below the post. Now you can click on "Insert Full Image" and the photo will now be full sized and not a thumbnail. Click Save and off you go.
Believe it or not, I also sometimes get too fast with the Create Thread button, so I have to go back and correct mine occasionally too.

This belongs on the front of Fishing Magazine, (if there is one) there's a whole lot of people that could relate to this and wish they were there.
I might de-blue the peak a bit...
To Jim's comment... Fishing and landscape photographers have much in common, especially how often we get skunked
I think that both like to be in nature and know the life cycles of the seasons. We enjoy the settings and often have to get up early, but it's also the head space when we have something to do that we think is meaningful. Basically to justify all the money we spend on gear/toys and the cost of getting there.
I have no interest in fishing or hunting but can see how the experience is similar to my own.
