Great vis, swells weren't too bad and the sun was shining.  But No schooling fish.  Searched a ton of holes, and no one was home.  I saw a bunch of perch and one black/yellow.  Let them live.  I did have fun diving with my friends though  :smt004  And I did step up my video production game  :smt003

Nice skillz with the video! That hi-speed time lapse thing was cool. For the panoramic shot, did u use a tripod, or r your hands that steady? Looks like great visibility too.  Thx for sharing.
Btw, kinda spooky when there's no fish around the area... makes u wonder whether they sense something we don;t know and split- maybe the oncoming storm? Anyway, great video!

Superb video shots +5, what mode or GoPro you have? Still have the rings? Is it not the 1080?

I got one over there...if we go together I'll show you...after I take the eel out of it.

 :smt002

Glad you got out...you'll find the fishies next time...FWIW I've had days over at that spot where I had to work my ass off just for a few dinks...especially in that main slot straight out from the shore...I've had better luck over on either side.

LOVED the video effects buddy!!

Sincerely,

I have the HD Hero, I film in R3 mode incasde something cool happens while I'm recording I can slow it down to super slow motion. I'd love to be able share a slo-mo head shot of a WSB with you guys ;) or if I get buzzed by the landlord, or see a billfish ect. I was just too lazy to edit out the ring.

Hamachi; I used an egg timer attachment on a tripod to get the sweeping effect with my GoPro, I set it to take a pic every 2 seconds.

Awesome vid! Looks like great conditions. Too bad the fish did a disappearing act on you.

Dude...those gloves crack me up!

I sliced my middle finger on a barnacle or something and thought to myself "it's finally time". New gloves will make an appearance in my next diving video :)

Chadrock; Slowing down is not an option. I gotta fulfill my new years resolution and get out and play more! I'll see you around!

Very cool editing! Always nice to get good conditions, takes some of the bummer out of not seeing a lot of fish.

Looks like a beautiful day fish or no fish.  Thanks for the report and video clip Jeff.
