    The aerial view is great, it gives the GoPro shots a lot more context of where you are in the river in relation to the fish.

    Wow Scottie, you've outdone yourself dude! One of the sickest videos yet, and I'm not just saying that cause of the gratuitous slow mo hopper eats. I love the message to find those out of the way holes and explore. That's the best way to get into fly fishing and stay into it.

    Have you ever considered a video on the basis and what is a good budget friendly setup. Also maybe a talk about rafts and what you like about your raft and why.
    I kayak fish a bunch but the raft world looks so cool

      @@Michael65429 politely disagree. Some cases of altitude sickness arrive after more than average exertion. I think it was the day before that they did a lot of trekking. This same thing happened to me in the rockies.
      But who knows, could've been a bug.
