I have not yet heard back from Rich, but as I see it there are 2 possible scenarios.
If Rich does like the idea and can do it on here, I think a video uses up a lot of memory or web capacity. Whatever the terminology, I dunno, but a 10-15 minute video would be max and maybe that's too much. I know from joke videos some of you have sent me, it takes like 2-3 minutes to download a 30 second clip. So 10 MINUTES of video would take a half hour or longer. And being limited to 10 minutes, I could only go over the basics and very briefly. So I will also make available VCR tapes and dry to burn some CD-roms with the full 30-45 minutes of edited info. I will do this even if Rich does put a video on, so those of you that want all of the in depth info will have access to it.
Now depending on how many people want these, I may ask that you guys at least send my enough money to cover the cost of the CD's, VCR tapes, and postage. Other than that, I don't want anything. It's a learning experience for me and for my buddy who likes the idea of becoming a filming and production guy for me. I have long wanted to start a show, and this can be my intro into learning how it goes on a very limited and basic level.
I am NOT worried about any copyright, legal issues whatsoever, so if you want to copy them for your bass club, or friends, or my favorite, a local kid....GO FOR IT! But most importantly, put it to use, and then go DO this on the water!
If it goes well, maybe I might even consider a small series of other techniques and particular patterns I feel confident in and have "mastered" in my opinion. When I say "mastered" there is no such thing. These fish will ALWAYS educate, humiliate, and humble you. But I mean, I have a better understanding than most other anglers.
Other ideas are:
Tubes/Grubs
Jerkbaits
Deep water structure
Top Water
I will NOT be doing C-rigs, spinnerbaits, or crankbaits. Though I am proficient with these baits, I am by NO means good enough to be giving advice IMHO.
I will even try to get Mark Kurtzner to do a little cameo on drop shotting! LOL
Buzz can do bloopers and how to wear SOSpenders!
