So have you recieved your copy yet?? I know they have been shipping and so far the reviews have been great.
Here is a review posted on another site.

I just finished watching the movie. It's awesome! It's also not your typical fishing show. It was an unexpected treat and highlights the enjoyable things about kayak fishing that makes it unique among platforms from which you can catch fish. Far from a technical program about how to catch fish from a kayak, it showcases the extreme angling that can be accomplished from a little plastic boat.

Even though it is only an hour long, Jim Sammons and his cohorts make you feel as though you are experiencing the fishing trips right along with them. This is truly genuine and epic movie.

Once content to paddle around and fish local lakes, I now know that I must see and experience some of the places that I saw on the Kayak Fishing movie. Better yet, I am tempted to dream about the many angling firsts that remain to be had from a kayak!

This will be one of the few DVDs in my collection that I will actually watch several times over. I can't wait to see the next one!

Here is a little about the movie

Kayak Fishing: Game On is an epic, new, fishing movie that follows me, Jim Sammons, and some of my friends around North America on the kayak fishing adventure of a lifetime.
In Florida we braved the treacherous Boca Grand Pass to fight with tarpon, all the while dodging power boats and sharks.
Our next stop was the big waters of Alaska off Prince of Wales Island. Here we caught more fish then we could count all while having close encounters with Orcas and Humpback whales.

Next you will see us on the Ottawa River in Canada. This is where I had a brush with mortality while running white water in a sit on top kayak. We ran down rapids to get to the fantastic bass and pike fishing available in some of the most beautiful areas I have ever seen. Then we go after the real fresh water predator, the Musky.
Next on the itinerary were the frigid waters of Chesapeake Bay on the East Coast. Here the target was big Striped Bass while we fished around submerged circa WWII concrete ships. Tough conditions forced us into a nearby inlet where I caught me first Red fish.
The final destination was the East Cape region of Baja where we once again tackled not only the elements but also one of the baddest fish in the sea, the Blue Marlin. When the fishing was interrupted by a passing hurricane we made the best of it and got some great kayak surfing footage.
The movie features action and adventure, while providing a unique glimpse into the lifestyles of some of the most dedicated kayak anglers in the world, including Greg Bowdish, Howard McKim, Kevin Whitley, Jamie Pistilli, Matt Moyer and more.
If you enjoyed Endless Summer or any of the ski films by Warren Miller, I think you will love this movie. It truly is a lifestyle piece, showing us fishing and having fun with some great people, in beautiful locations, all backed by an awesome sound track.


I hope you guys like it.
I hope some of your local retailers have it and if so get it from them but if not The movie can be ordered from my site
http://www.Kayak4fish.com or from http://www.KayakFishingMovie.com
If anyone would like information for holding screenings at clubs or retailers please let me know and I will get you the information you need.

Well let's just say we had a great time fishing with Kevin, the fishing though was another story. We had cold rain, cold thunder, cold water, cold lightning and lots of cold beers.

Well, as Im sure you know, hes one of the most accomplished/knowledgable/respected kayak anglers in that area, so if you had any issues with the actual fishing, Im sure it was impossible for everyone.

Kevin was great and we had a blast fishing with him, the conditions were out of his control of course.
We did on the last day finally manage to get some small red fish. Of course the day after we left the stripers went off for them. That's just fishing and we understand that.
The movie really is about the people and places, the fishing is just a added bonus.

Understandable. Im guessin you guys went during the Winter run, and you are right about everything being absolutely freezing out of a yak.
