How many times have you been out fishing for bass on your favorite lake or stream, caught a great largemouth or smallmouth and just wished you had a picture when talking about it later.

Ok, part of the reason may be to ward off your friend’s comments about fishing tales and fishermen being truth-twisters but the real reason is to save the memory …

(Especially these days with the threat of Alzheimer’s lingering in the distance!)

Modern World of Digital Photos & Bass Fishing

In today’s modern digital world there is hardly a reason why most of us shouldn’t be in a position to “snap the pic” to preserve our catch in digital form …

One reason is the camera feature present in most cell phones today (though the images maybe marginal) while another pertains to the affordability of decent digital cameras.

In the following video, Wade Bourne, noted outdoor author and host of MyOutdoorTV.com provides a few pointers on how to catch great outdoor digital photos:

Pretty cool huh!

So remember the main pointers Wade provided via the video:

• Number of megapixels (> 5 MPs)
• Cost (although I would argue today a decent digital can be had for $100)
• How to frame the picture (get close!)
• Use the flash to offset the bright background typically found in the outdoors under sunny conditions
• Shoot images holding camera both horizontally and vertically …

Now you can be capturing the photos to save your own bass fishing memories …
