GeoFish: MEXICO trailer

The mission at MOTIV Fishing is simple: Create a new genre of fishing media that is appealing not only to fly fishing and conventional sport fishing enthusiasts, but also inspiring and captivating to general audiences, fishermen and non-fishermen alike. I really hate these guys.

Wading with Sharks, and Other Fun Things. Barjack the Angler Bluefin Flat Indian Ocean April 3, 2011 Intro: Heat Exhaustion, The Cuda, and Blue Water.
