Head Shots.
It's a photographers term for a picture of the head and shoulders. A close up.
Lure makers like it because it shows their product in action. Nothing sells a lure like seeing it hanging out of the corner of the mouth of a big fish.
As the water temperature got up around 79/80 degree mark, the peacock bass and the red devils became more aggressive. Nothing big, everything was in the 1 to 2 pound range, (the largest was just a little over 3 1/2 pounds) but we had lots of fun and lots of action. As I said, the fish were not trophy size, but there were more than enough smaller ones to get some great pictures. (remember, what ever is closest to the camera looks the biggest) LOL
Aloha,
Stan
