      Thanks guys!! Tim, I'm not. I just take a lot of pictures. Lol I usually use an Olympus TG-3 for all my picks except a couple of these new ones and have all ...more my settings at the highest resolution so I can zoom in, crop, etc. My hubby has been wanting a new camera so he's been practicing taking pictures with a fancy Canon. It's all the camera. I think. Lol

    ended up calling cpw over this guy, thought I'd caught my record bluegill for a minute there. Cpw said it was most likely a aquarium or aquaponics release.

    Blue Tilapia with a earthworm

      My name is William. I'm doing some research on Tilapia and have heard some rumors of them being around the S. Platte. If you don't mind sharing, Id like ...more to go to she stretch of river you were at and see if I can find anymore. Hopefully it was only a one time release fish.
