Autumn Fishing at Mountain Island Lake

Sunrises, no matter how much a cliche, are still gear, especially when you experience them.

Still Life with Largemouth

Spotted Bass

Double Trouble Largemouth.  Mine's bigger Sean!

The big ones are hiding already, small ones gettin there last fill before cold sets in..

Turtles are glorious creatures.  They sit peacefully on a log and bask in the sun as the world turns

At 6:45am water temp was 72F, air temp 61F.  Air was crisp, sky clear, and you could tell that the fishing was in flux.  In any case, a lovely day to be on the water working at our weekend office.

Mountain Bike

When not on the old Raleigh beach cruiser, this Gary Fisher 'Wahoo' is one of Mr. Vague's favorite modes of transport.
