Hehe...but it's warm and great outside!!! Gotta be better than talking to a puter woman.... My wife and I were skunked for almost 5 weeks, but still got out there....you may catch something huge!!!

Anyone up for a chat? I took the day off....

My wife and I only started fishing 15 weeks ago, so 22 weeks from now is a LONG TIME!!!!

Ummm...why dont you grab your gear and go fishing??? LOL.

Great report!!!! I'm happy to catch any fish!!!

Loved this report!!! Had a little of everything in it....some justice served, a frozen lake report and some fish at the BOQ!!!!

My 2006 season ends on Dec 31.....after that it's the start of the 2007 season!!!!!!

You'll have to ask yourself a few questions first.... 1) What conditions will they mostly be used? Sunshine, cloudy, low light etc... 2) What kind of things will he be looking at? Birds? Sporting events? Single objects, etc... 3) Compact vs Bigger binocs....is small size important? (ie hikers may want smaller ones if space is a premium) Binoculars are described with 2 numbers....for eg 10x50. The first number is the magnification amount...so in this example, it will magnify something 10 times..or make an object look 10 times closer. The higher the magnification, the higher that first number. The trade off is that the field of view will decrease. The second number is diameter of the objective lens (the bigger of the two). The larger the objective lens, the more light it can gather so that the image will be clearer. This is the number that will decrease in compact binocs. Now, for examples of who would use them....for a 10x binoc, if someone likes to look at individual birds that are motionless, you can get great detail. However, if you are trying to track something in the sky, it will be harder to find cause the field of view is smaller. Another example would be if its being used to watch live sports. You'd want a smaller magnification so you could see multiple people during a play...not zooming in on a players elbow. The objective lens size wont be much of an issue, since sporting events are well lit. You'd prob go with a compact version for sports. The faster the pace of the sport, in general, the less magnification you'd want, cause it's easier to keep focused on them. Low light conditions will require a larger objective lens (second number), but they are bulkier units. Bushnell is a good brand...but not premium, and just fine for most people. With binocs, you get what you pay for. Premium binocs may have special optic coatings for greater clarity, scratch resistance etc.... Cheap ones will try to get you on price, but quality is compromised. Anyhow, this is just an intro in binocs....goot luck!

Thanks for posting....even if the fishing wasn't good, I liked seeing fellow OFC'ers enjoying themselves on the water and indoors as well! Great report joey....next time you'll get 'em....I'm just sure of it!
