Sweet vid! You just got yourself a fan here. Way to piece it together. It is hard to get the fish on camera. I realize it's a chunk of change but the remote for the gopro has been useful to me - you can turn the camera off (but still listening for the remote), start/stop record, switch modes, etc.

Your vid is already in the top 10% IMHO but you asked for suggestions, so here's all I've got: Great job varying camera angles (something I need to work on). If you can snag some underwater footage when you're hand-holding it (or whatever you're doing when it's on a pole or something) I've found the underwater footage to be captivating and unique. I like the voiceover at the beginning; don't be afraid to narrate every now and then while the action is on. And finally; the best vids I've seen on here and YouTube in general tell a story (another thing I need to work on). I love the timelapse at the beginning, and the timelapse at the end - keep that up. Make the day on the water a narrative from start to finish.

Really good, I'm looking forward to more!
