I have a couple of his previous videos that I bought from a RI tackle store while gazeing thru the glass counter one winter afternoon. When I bought them I never heard of the Laptew or Fish_eye and it was before I found s-b.com. After watching the (striper magic) video, I went back to the store and bought the other titles he offered.
This also got my children more interested in snorkling. New wet-suits (not X-box games) are on this years Xmas list! (I thank you for that!)
Some of the footage really is quite remarkable. I don't know how he gets so close without spooking them when I turn on my lights they take off.
The fact that he does this in OUR local waters makes him really unique IMO...it is one thing to go to Turks and Cacos Islands and film bone fish in 85 deg water with 200' visability on a sandy bottom in mid day sun, and quite another to negotiate the rocks the currents, cold temps and low vis around Cuttyhunk in the early spring and late fall.
I am placing my order today for the new one.
Between my newly arrived Post book and Laptew video's...I am set for the long winter.
