Re: Striper limit question???
 
The people complaining should have seen the deck shots of the 60's , oops I meant dock shots . And back then there were no size limits. But then again that was before the large volume of commercial guys.

My suggestion is to make an effort. I learned alot from Dave May who took the shots for the Asbury Park Press. He did a photo shoot on my boat and what beautiful pics. we had. It is the same for all fish from tuna to fluke.

Agreed that action shots make for the best photos. Perhaps look into mounting a gopro or two and just let it run on a loop? You can crop stills from the footage and post very short clips of notable catches. This way you don't have to reach for the camera while trying to run a fishing boat!

Couldn't agree more. I have zero issue with people keeping their legal limit, but why not just post a picture of live fish and then it is nobody's business what happened after the photo op. Dead fish look kind of gross anyway :-)

worrying about opinions and pictures I bet our Dads and Grandfathers who showed us the ropes would of smacked us and called us wimps. This is why things are like they are now. Everyone worries about everyone else. Try your best to obey the limits and mind your own business

I love the gopro and i agree with you.The problem is when you are chartering and doing two trips a day your exhausted.When i was doing it i wanted to get some rest and getting up at 4am everyday will kick your butt lolIt don't get no better when get past 65:eek:

I hear ya captain, rendering the footage is a bitch...I've done some cooking videos and even the footage from my dashcam can be extremely time consuming to edit/upload etc.

Since you're on a boat you can keep the gopros powered indefinitely, and use large capacity SD cards so storage isn't an issue. I'm thinking that mounting 1 or 2 on the boat to capture the action hands-free would be a set-it-and-forget-it solution.
