Fly Fishing the Eastern Sierra
So I've been threatening to do a fly-fishing video for a while. I guess it was in the stars because I made this one by default. After switching cars and driving to our destination I had realized that my still camera was still in the truck. So here is my first attempt at taping fish! I had a video camera hanging around my neck and stuffed in my front pocket. Big pocket. So once the fish were hooked I'd pull out the camera and then switch it on and let it dangle. The video I cut out was a little nauseating. Kind of like the last Bourne Identity movie. Shaky Cam to the max. Some of the shots I was holding the camera some it was just hanging from my neck and I was trying to get the fish in the shot. Kinda fun.
Also the soundtrack is a tune that I wrote while my friend was in town with his pretty little daughter Amelia. Thus the songs title.
Hope you enjoy. It was fun to make and I think does a good job showing off some of the prettiest fish on the planet. Each one is like a canvas that is painted differently. A few of these fish are hybrid goldens. Such as golden browns, and golden cut throats. Beautiful. It's a little over 3 minutes long.
I have just viewed it online and the detail is pretty poor. If someone would like a DVD of this vid let me know and I'm sure we can come to some sort of an agreement. It's not high def. But the detail comes through.
