    Fish - no problem

    Ducks - no problem

    But be aware of moronic fishermen who throw unwanted fishing line into the water.

    Over half an hour to recover boat but no serious damage (A good reason to have a fuse fitted)

    This is Keystone Colorado. The beach area and the pond is restricted to mostly no fishing (there were some casting for kids on the far side of the pond.

    The Gato is the Revell 1/72 scale.

    like "Salmon" (Tom Chalfant) said, its "the" pond at Keystone Colorado, where my local club has its annual regatta.  all the fish there are fat and happy because there is no fishing allowed, but there are "feeders" around the pond, where people can buy fish pellets and feed them.  that's the trick we used,  throw a handful of pellets in front of the camera sub...

    the camera sub is a Norbert Brüggen Delta, with a gopro mounted on it:

    another shot with a fish next to my 1/96 Blueback, which is slightly more than 27" long... the fish followed it around like they wanted to be friends with it:

    HAHA, wanting to "be friends with it" is an understatement Tim. I think they were in love!
