FISH ON! It's always an adrenaline rush to watch my bobber sink below the ice. Photographers share that feeling with rare photo opportunities. It was a cold January morning, I knew exactly where to place my minnow to draw in the lunkers below the ice. One could say I'd done my homework. Within a minute of my minnow reaching the proper depth my bobber dropped. Out of instinct I set the hook and fish on! It was a small perch. Not what I was hoping for but nevertheless I was beaming with excitement in anticipation to my next catch. Lowering my minnow back down the hole, I hear a vehicle speeding across the ice towards me. I look over my shoulder to see a Delorean. Instantly, it reminded me of the movie "Back to the Future" and the quote "where we're going we don't need roads." I needed a picture of that amazing shot. A Delorean driving across the frozen lake, what are the odds?! As I start to move towards my camera, bobber down! I had to choose between possibly catching the fish I had been waiting for or a once in a lifetime photo opportunity? -It was a small perch... |
