This will be a new feature starting today.

If anyone has a photo that has been previously posted during the last week on our site that they feel is worthy —- let one of the Moderators know without posting it here — and they will consider it for the weekly photo.

New one every Tuesday.

Lots of talent to share on our site.

A quick reference list of the Moderators might help. Notify by PM? Or other way?
Fishing tackle is an art form and all fish caught on the right tackle are"Gfish"!

Here's a couple of photos for this thread.

The photo labeled DQsVsM300 show a Mitchell 300 surrounded be D.A.M Quick reels (top-right going clockwise), DQ1400, DQ1202, DQ2002. DQ4001 and DQ5001.   

The second photo, labeled UL_collection, displays a variety of Ultra-light reels. Starting on the back row on the left is a Penn 420SS, in front of it a Penn 716Z, next to it a Penn 716 Greenie followed by a Cardinal 3 (Black). The next row forward is a Alcedo Micron, a DQ 1001, and a Compaq Atlas II. The front row shows a JC Higgins (Alcedo-like UL), a Shimano AX-UL and a John Deere colored Mitchel 408 representing the 308, 408 and 310 models.

Would all hell break loose if we hit the "report" button for nominations? I've never actually needed to report anything but I imagine there's some spot to explain why you're reporting?

I feel like that button might be atrophying here. We're a pretty considerate bunch of posters.

I will discuss this with the Boss and Moderators.  I kinda like the idea.  Bill
It may not be very productive,
but it's sure going to be interesting!
