Multi-media specialist Tim C. Smith is on the fishing adventure of a lifetime aboard the long-range California fishing vessel, Excel. For 18 days starting Feb. 1, he’ll be sending daily reports – including video recorded by a drone camera. Catch the action exclusively at TheFisherman.com.

The fishing trip of a lifetime is approaching fast. One of the tools we will be using for capturing video from outside of the boat will be this Phantom II quad copter. We now have the ability to get camera angles that, at one time, could have only been possible with another boat or helicopter. Let’s hope we don’t fly her into the water! Remember, starting February 1st visit the TheFisherman.com to follow all the action on the Excel fishing Trip.

Having arrived safely in San Diego, Tim Smith, John Nappo and the boys from Trophy Tackle board the Excel and prepare for the epic long range fishing expedition ahead.

With everyone aboard and gear loaded, the crew of the Excel stocks up on live bait and departs San Diego Harbor for the tuna grounds.

Steaming south to Cabo San Lucas, the tireless tackle preparation continues but this didn’t prevent the boys aboard the Excel from enjoying a traditional Super Bowl tailgate party.
