Video goodness: Riding High
Anyone remember life before Vimeo? Nope, we don’t either. Just check out this little beauty, Riding High, which perfectly harnesses Vimeo’s HD capability to bring you a five-minute distillation of excellence in fishing cinematography…
Never before have we come across a piece of footage on the internet that so perfectly captures the multi-hued perfection of the mighty poon. Or the sense of speed and downright nastiness these fish possess – that raw power that’s so difficult to describe. This little film does a great job – you can even blow it up to full screen without doing the usual thing of instantly shutting it back down again because the resolution is so out of whack.
A bit of background for you: filmed over the course of an entire tarpon season from the lower Keys to the Panhandle, Riding High shows the entire tarpon migration and a bunch of fishermen chasing them up the coast.
Anyway, enough of the waffle, time to watch:
