That is awesome! very happy for you. 

For me, I have a GoPro running at the back of the boat. When I lost fish I would go back and watch the video. I found that sometimes when they got off I noticed I was allowing the rod to straighten out either from me bending over and the rod no longer had a parabolic bend it it or The rod hit the windshield or other part of the boat which again allowed the rod to unload. Another thing I notice for me was I had the drag too tight and was horsing it, I basically pulled the hook out of his skin. Just a couple of things top of mind that I had to work on.

Oh Man, sorry to see that. Can you bend that fender out so that you can drive it?

Are you burning baits?

John Wilson I am finding to do it right I need external storage and a decent computer with phone and cameras and a LOT of time!!!

I do not have a code and I purchased something from the BLat store. That code did not work.

The editing is a full time job. Also storage of the videos is cumbersome. 

Glad to see that fish in your hand and smile on your face.

Kevin Skovenski I built you a replica Sick Stick which is a BLat rod that is no longer manufactured. Mack has a Slick Stick that I designed. They are very similar in action and power. The handle designs are slightly different and I think I have a couple of extra guides in the tip section. Mack's was a customized Slick Stick with Mack colors :-). My wife did the marbling in the split grip section.
