Hot summer Tuna Video!

tracker · 08-08-2007, 03:15 PM

Well I did a little more work with the underwater camera in this video. I have one spot in the video where the music cuts out and all you hear is what the camera is hearing. The tuna there has a worden lure out of Yakima, that it has taken. That came in the captains buckets last year at the OTC. So I guess it works! I learned something though that I had not thought about? The lure has a rattle inside or the sound you hear is from the hooks rattling about. I have not checked the lure yet. Anyway, my wife thought that moment needed no music. So the lack of melodic sound waves! Enjoy the video.

Dave, I think this is one of your best videos my friend. I really enjoyed it and the underwater shots were fantastic. Nice job.

Great video, Tracker!! The Jerre Ann makes it to the silver screen. Too bad it hasn't been in the water since. Problems with the wiring harness. Ah, the joys of shaking out a brand new boat.

Great underwater shots and you almost picked up a projectile yawning action shot to boot.

WadeP · 08-08-2007, 04:24 PM

V e r y nice video!

Flysnrides · 08-08-2007, 04:26 PM

Enjoyed it very much !!!:lurk:

liked the shot underwayer of the gaff hook waiting for the fish.... no wonder they fight so hard at the boat !

Great work, thanks for sharing with everyone, awesome selection of music too

Nice work, that was awesome.

Very nice job, I just wish my 256k was able to keep up, start, & stop the whole way. Thanks for sharing.

tracker · 08-08-2007, 05:03 PM

Yep 256k will take quite a while to load it. Maybe click on it before going to bed and then watch it in the morning. I am not lowering the quality of the videos anymore. That will make it harder to load with dial up!

pijon · 08-08-2007, 06:28 PM

Great video!
They just keep getting better. One day these will be on northwest sportsman or some tv show like that.

SeaFever · 08-08-2007, 06:40 PM

It's not that slow, takes 4 or 5 minutes to load, & then the video is stop & go. defaneatly don't lower the Quality. I remember when I had dial up not so long ago, & I dredded when someone had a bunch of pic's to check out, click, & then go have a cup of coffee.

glad those day's are gone.

Very Nice

Thanks for sharing

Moldy45 · 08-08-2007, 07:51 PM

WOW! that was one of your best Dave and the underwater cam is a nice touch

Sea Jypzee · 08-08-2007, 08:24 PM

Fantastic video.

Sublime · 08-08-2007, 09:26 PM

Tracker, those gaffing jobs are Truly Phenominal!

:grin:

Great video

tracker · 08-08-2007, 09:44 PM

It is what it is! The guys will never hear a sharp word from me as long as the fish hits the deck instead of still swimming around in the sea. I guess I could just show all the head gaffs, and yes there are some, but that would not be the reality of it all. I just pick out the clips that fit what I am trying to show! The belly gaffs really dont hurt a thing, but we do lose some meat with the loin gaffs! Such is life! My world does not revolve around the "Perfect Gaff". That said if there is a good head gaff the guiys hear good things about it. Its all for fun and a good time. Does make a guy wince when it happens though!

cdog · 08-08-2007, 11:53 PM

Great video. Thanks

Get'em how you can. I love you videos and the music match is great. I am happy to wait for it. Some times better just takes longer and it's a good thing.
Thanks Tracker

EXCELLENT.....

tracker · 08-09-2007, 05:38 PM

Thanks for the replies guys! Hope to get some video of what all the lures in my arsenal look like while running in the water.

Sublime · 08-09-2007, 05:48 PM

Haha, Love it, either way, friend... Just givin ya (poop).

wdlfbio · 08-09-2007, 08:34 PM

Nice job Dave. Where's the bloopers and deleted scenes sections????

I think your video shows a pretty good description of what is meant by blue water:grin:

How about dropping the camera back on a handline that has a downrigger clipped to it, then clip a clone or swim bait into the downrigger clip. This way we could get a video of the bait being attacked. That would be sawheeeetttt!

I've actually thought of that, myself. However, with the type of camera Tracker has, as well as my own (I think), is only 'waterproof' up to 10 ft. I'd be worried it might go lower and have water creep in. I'm working on a waterproof housing for the video without having to buy one, since they are so expensive~

SecondSeason · 08-09-2007, 09:11 PM

dave i have been out of town all week and now just managed to watch this great video. it is one of your best for sure. the one thing that keeps bugging me is that gaff from above it reminds me of bad **** from the 70's only its a gaff instead of a fuzzy microphone..... ha ha

thanks for the seasport fotage.

fish-on-bend · 08-10-2007, 04:56 AM

Very nice. Great music and nice touch with the underwater shots.
REALLY makes me wish we had been able to go out past the halibut grounds last week. I had to buy a tuna at the dock just to bring one home last week. Maybe I will get one more shot with Herring Problem unless someone else offers me a seat before then,

tracker · 08-10-2007, 05:50 AM

The other problem with dropping the camera back on a line other than the depth issue would be stabilising the camera. Would be really hard to watch a video that is spinning around and around. Would not be good having veiwers puking all over their keyboards!:grin:
