Default Some Cool "Go Pro" Style Offshore Action

From Australia.......

Look at around 54 seconds into the video. Does that guy wrap the line around his arm?


A friend of mine had his GoPro with him on our recent Pocomoke River trip. I'm VERY impressed by the quality of video.

I do not think the mate was wrapping line like you think.

Done right - the wire man wraps the leader in palm of each hand - gathering leader each time to bring fish to boat side. He can release it easily - if need be.

I love how far the back of fighting chair got tossed.

Thanks for posting - cool video.

Yeah it was too hard for me to see what he was doing in the video, and since I've never gone "Big" fishing like that before I had no idea what he was trying.

The biggest fish I've ever fished for was Goliath Grouper down in Naples, Fl and I caught the smallest one at well under 200 pounds. They didn't jump at all....they just puuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuull like a sumbitch.
