I can however sympathize, it looks like a pretty small boat with only two guys fishing and filming. This is the same way we do it here at fishing fury, and its not easy to get all the best shots. You have to make up for it with some good editing. I certainly wish I was out there in search of those huge tigerfish. Also the trolling methods remind me a lot of trolling for musky or even marlin.

He lost several fish over several days despite trying different tackle and methods including different reels (they show about a dozen rods/reels at the start). The reeling upside down is pretty funny though, but he must prefer a reel with left hand retrieve but there wasn't any conventional reels except right handers. Its just some highlights from his trip!
