I have just completed the design and fabrication of the new mount of my GoPro camera on my Kayak. I couldn't wait to get on the water with it to video a fishing adventure. Friday ended up being the day, though I could only fish until 9:00AM due to a scheduled meeting with a client.
The action was really good and I had a stretch where I was hooking up a fish on every cast! Though the fish were running a little small the action made up for it.
I did catch one of the biggest Ladyfish I can remember. I was fishing a 5M51 floating MirrOlure and this thing inhaled the whole bait and only had about 3/4"of the plug visible. Of course, being a ladyfish, she made some impressive leaps right at the boat. I also fished a 27MR MirrOdine which is a suspending twitch bait that is an outstanding lure.
The bulk of the action was small Jacks but even the little ones can pull pretty good.
I did a basic edit with Windows Live Movie Maker so I could post it for everybody. It is incredible how sharp the footage is from the tiny GoPro Camera when watched in HD.
I cut the action down to about 15 minutes to fit on Youtube so there is a lot missing but all the main action is there.
GoPro has recently released the Hero 3 and comes with some significant upgrades in an even smaller package if you can believe that. Here's a link to Amazon for more info:
