  1. Windows also has a movie maker that comes with the OS. I believe it is called windows movie maker. It works on the same lines as iMovie.
  2. Fish from the bridge to the boat club all the way back towards the parking lot for the boat launch. It's away from all the picnicking people and plenty of fish to be had! What are you using for bait? Jerk baits seem to be the key for me. I had to work it slow, pausing long in between jerks. When that wasn't working and I could see the followers, I downsized my jerk bait and started to catch fish. Here's a video of my first outing there this year!
  3. My only complaint with the gopro is underwater. The footage is terrible. If you are looking to get a lot of under water shots you might want to look into an after market flat lens for the housing, though they are fairly expensive. If you search gopro focus fix or gopro blur fix on youtube you will find some DIY videos on how to fix the problem as well as before and after clips. Other than that I love the camera and can't wait to put it to use this summer!
  4. Thanks everyone. I'm loving the camera and can't wait to make some more videos! I used a gopro HD hero camera and adobe premiere for editing. Keep a look out for more videos!
  5. I got out yesterday for a few hours and decided to try for some pike. I bought myself a GoPro camera boxing week, so I figured it would be a goo opportunity to test it out! Here's a video of one of my catches. I ended up with 3 pike, all around the same size. Enjoy, and hope to have some awesome fishing videos this season! Diltsy
  6. I put together a fishing video from my last outing from shore. Thought you guys might like to see it. I filmed it by myself so it was difficult to get everything in there! I won't even get into trying to edit it on my slow computer, lol. Hope you enjoy. The next one will be better, I promise!
  7. For all the guys wondering about the gopro - I have also been looking into getting one but was really unimpressed with the image quality underwater. That would be the main reason for the purchase for me, so I was a little upset. I found this video that shows how to fix the problem. - If you read the description it links you to the work that was done. This camera seems like a beast for things above water, but if you're like me and looking for some below water action just keep this in mind!
  8. Thanks guys! Wayne, we could have ten tapes full of good video from that day! So many fish!! Johnny Bass, I waited two yaers before joining my club... I guarantee when you join, you will regret not joining sooner! Hope to get some more shooting done next year, maybe get some ice fishing videos up!
  9. So I had a school project to document a lifestyle, naturally I decided to do it on fishing! I have joined a bass fishing club this year decided to have my main focus on tournament fishing. I thought some people on here might like to see it, so here's the link! Also if your internet connection is good, be sure to watch it in HD!
  10. Hey Urban fisherman! I am a broadcasting student going in to my second year. I really wanted to work in film when I decided to go to school, but now I think a fishing or outdoors show would be an amazing job! Any advice for going that direction?? Anyway you can get me on set to see how it all comes together?
  11. Thanks everyone, thanks JP. I decided to soak the line in hot water for 5 minutes and it seems to have fixed the problem! I'm not sure if has completely fixed the problem or not, but it has definitely helped. The line doesn't just fall off the spool anymore. I will have to wait to give it a full test. I will let you all know how I make out! JP, I am definitely going to give fluoro a fair try. When you say 8 is the most you will go... is this because the line gets stiffer the higher the test?
  12. Thanks again for they reply's. I decided after reading up on a few sites and from paulyboy mentioning it, to soak the line on the spool in warm water. I'll keep you posted on the results.
  13. Thanks for the reply's. I am putting the line on a spinning reel. And braid with a fluorocarbon leader is the way I usually do it... but after watching Getting School'd, Jp and Dave made me think I should try just fluorocarbon.
  14. (Gasps for air) Ok... I think it's done, for now. I don't know what happened, I spooled it up just like I normally would, the only difference was I decided to use fluorocarbon! I have read all the benefits to fluorocarbon and finally decided to put it on my new drop shot rod and reel. Everything started off good but before I knew it the line was twirling up on itself! I heard there was line twist with fluorocarbon... but this was just ridiculous! I twisted to spool around a few times, straightened it out and spooled it up. Now I ran the line through the eyelets when all of a sudden my reel began to vomit all of the line onto the floor! I was entangled in a fluorocarbon ball. Anyway, I kicked the lines ass and secured the end of the line but I am worried it won't make it through the night without spewing the rest of the line up. So what did I do wrong?? Is there some sort of trick to it? I was putting 8 pound P-line 100% fluorocarbon on and all I can think of is I should have had the line put on in the store. Any tips would be greatly appreciated! Ryan.
  15. Is that one of the rapala ts2 rods? I think I have the same one paired up with a shimano curado. First one I bought, the glue on the trigger part of the grip came loose. I returned it to bass pro and they exchanged it for me, been using it for about 4 months now and no problems! Lovin it, and the price was definitely right.
  16. I tried the same the other night, very tough to know whats going on at night. But if you can master the hook sets on that scum frog blind.... imagine what you will be able to do in the light! lol
  17. I am close to Danfourth and main actually between Victoria park and Main
  18. Thanks syn, I think I will give toronto islands a try.
  19. Hey everyone, I have been reading posts on this site for while now and have been meaning to make a post on some of my success from this year but have been just too busy. I have just moved from Welland to Toronto to attend film school. My question for everyone is, are there any good bass fishing spots around Toronto from shore? I am living in East York. I have been looking at some maps and trying to find some posts on the matter but just can't seem to find too much. I don't want anyone to give me their secret spot or anything but just a point in the right direction. I read a few things saying that you can find some largemouth at the Toronto islands, but when I checked satellite images it seems like a big area I don't know where to start. And I couldn't find if you need a permit or anything to fish there. Any information will be greatly appreciated, and if anyone lives in the area and wants to get out and fish I am always looking for fishing partners!
  20. I have been working on spinnerbaits a lot this year and this is what I have come up with, for those murky water conditions you want to use a darker color skirt. I came about this for the same reason as you... lots of rain and muddy water. I simply tied a white spinner on and a black each on a small piece of fishing line and dropped them in to see which one stayed more visible the furthest down. So that is why I choose black. Then for blades you will want a gold colorado blade if it is sunny out, and a brightly painted (chartreuse) in cloudier conditions. The colorado blade with send off a lot more vibration as well as slow the presentation down a bit for the fish. Been working great for me, I fish mostly for bass and catch the odd pike here and there. Hope this helps!
  21. I have a home made pontoon may brother and I made for my canoe out of ABS pipe, works great. Where abouts do you live? I'm willing to sell it if you are looking for a cheap alternative.
