Alright...I went ahead and took all of the video I had, and the video Mangina gave me, from our 2009, 2010 and 2011 Belize outings. Put it all together and came up with this. I know it is probably too long (18 minutes), but it is for the guys who went, and I wanted to make sure I got all of the Permit footage into this "Short Film". However, if you are on the Drake forums, you certainly have 18 minutes to spare...

I need to teach Mangina how to "frame the action" a little better. That's right I am calling you out...I also will be investing in some better cameras and equipment. All of this was shot on a small handheld 1080i camera, or a Digital SLR that also shoots 720p video. I am going all in for some 1080p gear!!

While I am no RA Beattie or Will Benson...I have been having as much fun filming my fishing friends as I have had fishing the last couple of times out. Guess I need to take care or I will forget why I am out there...

Grand Slam

Hope you guys enjoy it!!!

Holy cow! The only thing greener than that water and countryside is my ENVY. Thanks for posting that...took a little sting out of another mid_February snow storm.

Great movie man. Nice footage of the fish, casts, locale, and, of course, Jet. Watching that just makes me jones to get back down there again.

My 6yr old fish crazed daughter and I loved it.

the only thing I've learned from reading this entire thread is that the hokey pokey isn't really what it's all about.
