I'm a newbie to the sport and have been putting a lot of time in the water, reading and online trying to get a solid fundamental understanding of Victorian fish (as you may have seen from my previous post), especially the tastier ones.
I heard (a couple of months ago), that Brett had compiled a DVD with footage comprising all the species of the Vic Challenge. With haste I Pm'ed him asking the costs etc. Before long (to be fair he took f@#$ing ages), I got a message with an apology for the delay and a welcoming response that he was happy to help and would even post it out free of charge.
I recieved the 15 minute DVD Today and it's more than lived up to expectations. The vis throughout is crystal clear and unlike many youtube videos is also partly shot by a third party so you get to see the man's hunting techniques, I swear he hover's over a KGW for a minute or so, acting dead until it presents the perfect shot.
Synopsis: The man is part fish and probably shouldn't be allowed in any competitions.
Negatives: He doesn't supply Melways references to his spots or GPS information.
Conclussion: Fantastic watch. PM Him to grab a copy if your starting out, or just want to see some awesome footage of a pro get some very large Vic fish.
