The GoPro's are pretty versitile as Im sure you've seen and you can mount them just about anywhere.

The video was edited by myself using Adobe Elements 10.

Oh and I'll take sponsors for Vol2 if anyone wants to accompany a group of ragtag fellas back to the keys
You can count me in!!!! I've only been to the keys once and we stayed at Fiesta key, its was a blast.

I would love to try my hand at free diving. I practiced holding my breath in the pool this past summer and got up to 2 min 30 seconds. Of course that was holding still though.....but I still think I can do even better.

Blue Id love to tell you all my pool practice pays off......but it doesnt. Stamina yes, but breathhold, Im not so sure. Its alot different when you hop out of the boat into the abyss in an enviornment your not used to. But, I do encourage you to try it. It will change your life. I mean fishing and hunting.......underwater!!!! Sounds like a party to me.

Yeah, I'm sure it is A LOT different than holding your breath lounging in the pool. What is the max depth you guys dive down to?

Still workin on that but it gets better/deeper every year thank god. I max out at about 25' right now which isnt that great. My short term goal is to get to 45' and my long term is 75'.

Most of the fish in that video were shot in less than 20' and my Black came from 25'. You can do a lot of hunting down there in 10-15' though.

If you ever want to get into it lemme know and I'll help you get setup. Thats the nice thing about freediving.....its much cheaper and easier to do than SCUBA
