Suggestion On Hand Held Photos

[J&T Fisher]

I just got started with underwater photos while the fish is still on the line. Here's a trout from last weekend. I am learning to use the Olympus TG-830 and practiced in a swimming pool. It does a great job with stills and movies.

Cool picture

I just use my phone as I always have it with me and I think the fish slim is much easier to clean off the phone that a camera. I just hold the fish out at arms length and shot that way. It's really hard to judge the size that way, unless I lay the fish down my arm so there is a comparison. Once in awhile I am with someone who can take the picture if it's really nice one.

Earlier in the year I was taking a pic of every fish I caught but that got rather old, so now I only do the exceptional ones
