Nice fish mate.
62 will give you around 2.5kg as a rule, though it can vary from 1.95 to 2.7 depending on how well they've been feeding..

When I watch the video, i got to said it better then the kid bream smasher video. I would suggest that it would be good if you use two camera with difference angle

it looks bigger cause i had to wear the camera over my life jacket and it was just inches away from the reel.
ill have to find a different way to mount the camera so its not so close. im not a fan of the headmount for the gopro..
Yea I was wondering that. I noticed your video has low angle, coz of the chest mount, wouldn't it be bothering.
If you don't like head mount, maybe setup cameras on the boat then? With camera holder steady balancer thing. My mate got one, pretty impressive.
Obviously your video wont be first person point of view though.

i have one of them, just havent found anywhere to mount it on the boat yet, also its not waterproof. so once salt water gets to it its game over.
i have a mount on the boat, you can see it in the video on the centre console but my boat isnt big enough to capture proper footage (unless its mounted all the way in the back of the boat) otherwise all you can see is the persons back. this just seemed logical for now.
will investigate into some more mounting options.
this was very last minute, hence why it was strapped over my lifejacket.

Cheers shorty!
I find it so strange that only a few cm difference in fish can make them weigh very different.
ive been fortunate enough to land a few 60s now
the 67cm weighed close to 3.7kg, another 65 was 2.9kg and i believe hawksey had a similar sized fish which weighed 3kg i think from memory..
as you said it must be how they have been feeding 100%, this one was certainly not as heavy as the others i have caught, i didnt weigh it though..
But at this size they are TANKS!!!!

id rather the other person get stuck into some fish rather than film. there are some exceptions ofcourse, sometimes you just need a second hand :tu:

i do remeber that fish, was from gunners from memory..
if i seen you at the pier i would have taken you. i could have fitted another person, usually i have a full boat.(3 people max)
the weather wasnt nice though, with 3 people its a nightmare in conditions like that.
