Fishing rods are one of the hardest items I do to get perfect. The combination of a slim tubular items with multiple colours, metals, cork or eva etc make it challenging. I began shooting them during film days before digital, my setup still remains the same… a fully custom made Lightbox.
In light of the difficulties of rod photos, I love the challenge, but also anything to do with Emeraldas gear just ads to the enjoyment. One thing I do love is squid fishing and all the tackle involved with it.
