How many of you don't take pics of your catches? Or how big does fish have to be for you to take a pic?

Like to take pics of the bragworthy, the unlikely and the unusually striking. Just with the phone camera.

Depends on the fish.  If fishing is hot, usually just pop out the hook and continue fishing unless I land a tank.

I seem to be opposite from most people who commented. I never used to take pics and sorta wished I did later. Now if its a nice fish or its easy to take a picture I often will. Same with videos, I just enjoy watching and reliving some catches.

on the same note. taking pictures of the fish are for our own memory. posting certain ones on OFF is a different matter all together..

i had the worst camera ever when i caught my first steelie, i mean it was decent and the fish took me on a massive run downstream and i was more concerned about the fish flopping back into the water than i was about taking a decent picture well i got a mediocre one but thankfully Rusty was there and managed to get me a pic, I've since upgraded to a phone with an amazing camera waiting for action

I usually take pics of the scenery...I don't really take pics of every fish I catch...I'm more concern of putting my line back in the water and keep fishing. I just don't feel the need to take pictures of fish anymore. Whatever time I have fishing...I put it all in it.

ill echo most. Usually first fish of the day I will snap assuming its not an embarrassment. After that, only take pics of fish worthy of having their photo taken. It takes 3 seconds to snap a pic, why not. I have alot of pictures I have never shown.  I like sending shots to buddies. Little honest fun chirps for the boys.

With that being said, I am definitely guilty of adding "not ultimate" photos to the "ultimate" thread - sometimes a fella gets stoked on catches and wants to share - no harm in that.  I like that thread though, everyone showing their catches. It should be renamed and a new thread created... "Elite Fish" or something, to capture that "Ultimate" we were going after.

im always learning. The pic tells me how I caught it, when, where, etc, so I take lots of pics. The fish I consider 9s and 10s are the ones I try to share.

Hmmm...considering that I usually fish alone, there are only a few pictures as I do tend to try and get them back in the water as soon as I can. There are a few fish that I would have loved to get a picture of...however....being alone and my phone being 50 feet away..LOL...not so much! Back in the water they go! But I do have the memories!

I usually use my phone because its easy to show your catch to your buddy who cancelled on you last minute . Sometimes I'll rub it in with a text. :mrgreen:
