How do you share video?

I got my first Go Pro fish footage today. Unfortunately it a how not to video. I tried to gaff about a 28 inch Halibut and it didn't stick. then, the gaff gets wrapped up in my line while the fish is trying to run. In the end the fish got away. I'm thinking my gaff needs to be sharpened, in the video, I clearly hit the fish square. It just knocked it into the boat. Even though I look like an idiot in the video, I'd like to share it, but I have no idea how to do it.

If you hit the fish in the head (sounds like you did) it will just bounce off. Halibuts head are rock solid bone. Go for a belly shot next time

Maybe a Boga Grip would be a good purchase for you.

Yup. That's exactly what happened. I usually hit the stomach. I just blew this one.

The Gaff works for me. That a first out of many fish gaffed. I need a longer gaff. 24 inches isn't quite long enough.
