I can not agree more with this statement.  PW makes some awesome vids, and I wish I had his dedication.  I have soo much gopro footage dumped onto a hard drive, and maybe one day I will finally get around to editing it...  Nice vid as usual PW!

 

Once I have the footage I have no problem sitting down at night and editing. (I'm not great at it but I'm not terrible either.) It's actually getting the fishing footage that I don't like doing. It's a chore from a yak for sure. I always plan on it but on be I'm on the water I just wanna fish!😊

Cool video..... I wish I had your motivation when it comes to making these videos. I do a lot of dirt bike racing and have made quite a few cool videos but it's so much easier getting good bike footage to edit. It seems like doing fishing videos takes a lot of my time away from actually fishing. 

On a sidenote.....Man I need to learn to fly fish! Catching those carp on the fly looks like a blast and I  Iive in a perfect location for it.  I'm only a few miles from the Missouri river and lots of small sloughs. More carp than I can handle and I never fish for them.

Yeah anything fast paced like dirt bike racing would be way easier to get the footage.  Basically, I record every minute and change the view several times.  But the editing is what I really enjoy.  Gives me a chance to put my own touch to the footage.  Deciding on the music, the transitions and what not just makes looking through the footage easier.  Most of these videos are 10-12 hours of footage chopped down to 2 mins.  I'm still learning and find I watch more YT tutorials on camera stuff now than fishing.  However, I don't sacrifice any fishing time.  Just record everything!
