Alright the picture is crap i just never expected it to happen,the heron was standing on the boat and i took some pictures,then thinking nothing else would happen i started to walk away the heron dived into three foot of water grabbed a fish and flew out off the water,it took me by surprise as you can see.

A few years back at one of my local fishing ponds one o' the buggers swooped down and did a disappearing act with the carp I'd just hooked and was reeling in ... swine!

Yes, if the boat provides a good vantage point and the bird has learnt that it is not threatening it will use it to fish from.
