Some things to note about this video:
1) I have never edited a video in my entire life. Please go easy on me.
2) Flip Cam + Moving Boat = some choppy filming.
2) Jaden screaming “WORK IT! WORK IT!” is one of the highlights of my ENTIRE trip!
4) Wanna know what we did with the fish we caught? Stay tuned.
Now enjoy…
Recipe for the fish coming up!

Great video Matt!
I don’t know if it was my computer but it stopped playing/buffering at 1:22 in and I had to visit the YouTube site to finish it.
Thanks for sharing, everyone’s pictures are fabulous but the sights and sounds of video take me a little closer to actually being there! I can’t wait for the fish recipe!
Best,
Ronald
Nicely done! The video is great and wow, talk about a great catch! Not to mention all the fish as well. lol!
LOVE the sound effects, looks like a lot of fun!
Aw, that’s my husband in there! Love the video. Hilarious (um, but I hear less so in real life) about the tiny boat.
YAY FISHING YAAAAAAY!
Good job on your first video
I, too, had problems streaming it from your site and went directly to YouTube (strange!)
ah! that looked like it was super fun
your commentary was much appreciated and I cannot wait to see what you guys ended up doing with the fish – I bet it was delicious though!
No problems here. Love the hearts on Clyde
That’s one gorgeous fish. I didn’t think I could be hungry again so early, but…
That wasn’t that tiny of a fishing boat but I have been enjoying fishing my entire life – looked like a 24 footer or so – probably 200,000 to buy and equip
Looked typical since in most boats the most that can fish at the same time is 3-5 anyways so a huge boat is not cost effective to run for fishing charters.
The bigger boat early in the video would have had a large amount of fuel per hour costs that would have made it tough to justify.
Of course you all deserved a giant boat!
I liked the video.
So that’s what I missed when I was getting my massage?
David, I think that’s what we were missing when we got soaked (and you got water in your ear) sailing the Hobie Cat. I swear just looking at that video makes me want to pop a few Dramamine. Great job on the catch and on the video Matt!
I would quite like to go fishing with Clyde or maybe I would just quite like to sit back and admire clyde haul in a big fish.
I am a generally silent but rather devoted fan of your blog after a friend in london sent me the link with an inkling I might just get hooked (bit like that fish eh.)
I love your surrealist photos, the one with the blow up doll for valentines and the recent one with the doughnuts are classic – (maybe thanks should go to Adam).
the sound effects made me giggle.
Titles, imagery, sound effects and editing were very much in the spirit of MattBites.com. Loved it. But, now I’m anxious to hear the recipe for that catch of the day. The anticipation of that story is increasing my appetite.
Nicely done video! I cannot wait to see what you did to the fish after the big hunt.
I love it! Such a fun spirit to the video and what a great day to be fishing. Can’t wait to see what you did with the catch.
why is it that all boat captains are hot? it must be some sort of pre-requisite.
Very nice job, Matt. I can’t believe the fish you guys caught.
Thank you SO MUCH, this is so refreshing !!!
Nice video too, and no problem to see all of it! Did you eat all this fish? we wait for reciepes…
Felt like I was there! Now to find out how you got that bump on your head!
Love the *zing* sound effect/Matt Bites text you put in. Cute! Great job for a first video!
xoxox,
Brooke
I was going to say, where was David?
Great video, great editing, what did you use for that?
I thought your first video was great – very funny and entertaining. I can’t wait to see what you do with those gorgeous fish!
I just found your site through Elise and I can’t believe I’ve never visited you before. What fun you have over here. I’ll be back…
Well done on your first video! Loved it!!
I just found you Matt and I must say- i have a new crush! Your site is awesome- and your video was pretty swell! Looking forward to working my way back into the archives. Thanks!
LOL great vid! Beautiful fish…ocean….Niiicceeee : )
I’m hoping you just dipped them in flour and deepfried them whole, like whitebait. Or maybe they were a little big for that? Hey ho, great vid. Looking forward to seeing what became of them.
1) You funny man.
2) Can’t imagine what happened to my invitation to come along on this trip?
3) While Adam was working on reeling in that enormous fish, you really thought that was the time to have him refocus to say “hi” to the camera?
Looks like an enviable time you all had! Hope you are well, Mister!
Great video! I loved the special effects. Looks like an amazing trip! Could you share what you used to create it? If you hadn’t told me it was your first i never would have known!
Hi Sirena! I actually just used imovie that came with my mac. Nuthin’ special
redhead worked it way good!!!
kisses, jaden
Matt, I think you’ve missed your calling! Okay, not really, your photography is amazing. But you’ve got a real talent for video editing. That was really your first time? You could certainly get a job on Blind Date
Beautiful video and catch, Matt. You’re right about Clyde!
I wanted to see Adam club it in the head!
Very cool!!
Hello Clyde!
Looks like great fun Matt!
I think you did a great job with the video, especially for your first time editing! I liked the “title” pages and graphics, too. That you were able to film on such choppy water and not get sick is an accomplishment in itself.
