About a year ago I looked like a spaz until I got an OTW lesson from Buttchaser . It is amazing how easy it is to land Halibut when you are not doing everything wrong (who knew?) . Now I try to only do about half the wrong stuff (like having the gaff and game clip ready when the fish hits the surface).

Nice Video Greg
Where was all the thrashing and heavy breathing and wild gaff swings?!? Yeah, you look a little too calm out there, but I havent caught a legal halibut in well over a year, so what do I know New(ish) boat looks sexy! |

Sweet! Liked the vid and nice butt!
Hey how did you attach your gopro? I like the setup... I might have to get mine back into commission and try something similar. |

I used a piece of 1 1/4" PVC pipe that I belt sanded down to fit in one of my flushmounts just behind my seat. Then I heated the PVC and bent it so that I could get the camera just where I wanted it. I used a 1 1/4" Sleeve at the top with a reducer 1 1/4" - 1" and then an end cap that has a flat end to stick my camera mount to. Then I used 2 pivots, from the camera hardware, between the camera and the mount to allow me to tilt it two ways. I have not bothered to glue any of it cause it friction fits so well. |
