Photoshop the pics or use the night setting on your camera

Any chance of you showing a photo Rich, may make us understand a little better?

Maybe the flash is to strong and there is to much light bouncing off the fish

Could be your white balance on your camera is incorrect...

Here is one I took last week at mine and Trish's syndicate Lake in France ...for a night shot ,,,I think its o/k     ( its not been edited )



here is a day shot

a typical fish from there in the day






this was a good night shot on a self take except being out of focus



and then this happens a lot of the time

goes kinda washed out, is it just cos its too far for the flash to work as admitally, the self take was quite close...

on the mat but

It's your flash bouncing off the fish by the looks of it

We can all see the fish and you know you caught it

Isn't that all the satisfaction needed?

ye, but tbh if i am bothering with a picture, i would want it to be the best, seems a bit degrading to the fish, propper dark fish that look mint end up looking like pastys haha

so would it be best lowing the flash intensity
craftycarper

If your camera had a night portrait mode that might help or lower the flash intensity or try without flash... most cameras have a no flash mode

Lower the flash intensity or set it to a soft mode!

Make so much more difference
