Speaking of Threshers - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Jim Sammons LJKF · 04-25-2012, 08:07 AM

I was contacted by a publisher looking for good hi res kayak Thresher shots. Unfortunately I have not fished them in a couple years and had a major computer crash, no back up, and lost most of my old photos. If any of you happen to have something you think is book worthy give me a shout and I will forward the contact info to you.

Vincentek9 has possibly the coolest aerial photo of a thresher I've ever seen. Definately bok COVER worthy.

I was thinkin the same last night I believe it is on a post called shark towing co or something similar, I think it is the best shot I have seen

Certainly a worthy shot, not sure it is what they are looking for as you don't see the kayak, worth sending in to them to see.
Well if you guys know him please make sure he sees this post. Thanks

they want yak shots like this...

or shots of threshers in general?

this season should produce some goo pics. alot of people have the new technology that became more readily available and there seems o be a good number of interest in targeting them this year.

Thanks guys, I got an email saying they have what they need. So unless you have a top tier photo that you think could knock off what they have....
Thanks for the help
