I actually like this one most of all.
Personally, a shiny new gold hook (Eagle Claw brand) would work better, and this could be framed in my opinion.
This says a lot without a caption, so it could be hung in lots of people's houses. :)

Thank you. I'd actually have to look and see what I've got, I don't think I have any that are shiny except for these. The other hooks I have are the typically matte finish brownish color, and these blue ones. I have silver ones, and I was going to use one, but those are on steel leaders, and I didn't think the shot would look quite right with them. But, maybe I'll give it a try.

You know, I never looked at it that way. I was thinking more along the lines of "I've got issues, I think I need a psychiatrist.".

I use the same blue ones (Tru-Turn) for plastic worm fishing, and I only have some small gold hooks from years ago, so I definitely understand. :)
These really look fine, I would just think that a gold one would make it where it could be framed, should you want.

From boredom comes psychiatry ALSO works! :D :D

Well, I've got a silver treble, a silver bait hook on a leader, and I grabbed a colorful spinnerbait to see how I'd like the shots with it. We'll see what comes out of these.

The top silver hook one makes it for me, I like that, MUCH better! :)

I can't imagine why nobody else isn't commenting, I think it's pretty inventive myself...

Well thank you very much. I'm not surprised nobody is commenting, I'm sure a lot more inventive stuff is being posted. I don't think my stuff is all that hot most of the time, and probably isn't suited to a lot of tastes.

Thank you. I think I need to redo a few shots, I've been using my macro lens, and have to keep backing up to get a better shot in the frame.I might switch to the nifty and shoot some more.

You are having WAY too much fun with that ring. I think you should put all of these (including the ones in the other threads) into a series.

Some might say you have a bad opinion of marriage from these.:lol:

Nope, not a bad opinion of marriage at all. Just a person with a camera trying to be original and inventive.


It's funny how people always have to tie mental condition to something fun.

What kind of series do you suggest? A "marriage sucks" type of thing, or a "This is what people say of marriage"? I'm not all that bright when it comes to thinking up names for stuff, I just go with what pops in my head. Got any good suggestions or captions, please let me hear them. I'm always eager to see what other people come up with for my images.

the spinner bait works great for me as it portrays all the glitter and allure that is used by the fairer sex to get us guys to take the bait so to speak....ROFLOL
