The ultimate BC fishing adventure for two UK boys
« on: November 21, 2014, 08:51:33 AM »
A month ago, after planning it for a long time, I invited a couple of talented boys from the UK over to experience the fishing we have over here. Carl and Alex, brothers, age 19 and 16, are avid anglers and also aspiring videographers. Their goal of the trip was to catch/see one salmon and one sturgeon. We kind of accomplished that, and a bit more. ;D Check out this 30 minute video they just put together, which summarizes their 10-day ultimate BC fishing adventure! :)

Very good production Rod. What camera/lens did you use for the footage?

Thanks all. While I shot a good portion of the footage, the entire video was put together by these two guys.

Very good production Rod. What camera/lens did you use for the footage?

The cameras used were Canon DSLRs, there were a few, 550D, 600D, 650D. GoPro Hero3+. The lenses for the DSLRs were mostly the 18-135mm.
