Why Surface Irons?

http://www.bigwatersedge.com/bwevb/p...&pictureid=737

Why is fishing with surface irons so addicting? Is it the insane battle with a hard fighting fish on the end of a long rod? Is it the satisfaction of hooking up on a jig that you had to buy 10 other jigs just to find the greatest swimmer? For me it is none of that. For me, it is watching your quarry turn on your jig at the sight of its wild kick, and then the explosion of water hopefully following your anticipation. This is what I live for everyday in the pursuit for the next great adventure on the water.

Now equipped with a GoPro, I am able to share with all of you the thrill of the hunt and the satisfaction of victory. I have been waiting a long time to be able to capture video of these excursions and now I am finally able to show you. It was the camera’s first day out and it’s only going to get better with more time. Now I know what I have been missing out on for the last year. The editing was a chore that’s for sure, but fun. So here you guys go! The greatest surface iron video clip ever.

OOOOO! I like a challenge. That would be awesome to get some video of that. But super difficult.

Cool vid. Thanks for sharing. :jig:

Thoroughly enjoyed that from start to finish Kevin! Never a dull second.

And from the words of an old rock group (Eagles) "life in the Fastlane guaranteed to blow your mind"

Nice catch, when you landed that fish I was worried you were gonna take a hook to the nuts for a second...:eek:

:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek: I've never seen anyone get the strike on video before. Epic!!!!

Just like dry-fly fly fishing. . . Nothing beats the anticipantion and the visual of the fish making its move. . . . except for actually hooking the M'r F'r.

I think I'm all about the
:jig:

Like watching a surgeon ......

Nice video! I love seeing a YT boil on the iron.

nice video. whats the rod and reel combo?

Custom LB 100 cut 6" off the tip. Saltist BG 40H, 30 lb Izor first string. This rod is my light rod and is only meant to throw Tady C, A1 and similar weights. It is definitely not for the faint of heart.:sifone:
