My wife and I celebrated our one year wedding anniversary last Sunday. We went fishing with my father-in-law. Three of us caught 4.6 tonnes of cod in 16 hours.
We were in the North Atlantic Ocean, north west of Iceland (see map). I always wear my Submariner when working in rough and difficult situation. It´s my trusty toolwatch. Here are some pictures and a video. Enjoy

Here are two more pictures. But I could upload the movie. It says "invalid file". It´s a movie shot on my Iphone6 .mov. Any help?
Thanks

If you can, just upload it to YouTube and post the link here. Oh and a belated happy anniversary.

Uploading videos is not supported on most forums so the easiest way would be to upload your video to YouTube and to post the link to the video.

Did you make sure those fish weren't wearing GPS collars and that they were not beloved by the world?

Yes, the fish was sold on a fish-market. My father-in-law is a fisherman, and this is his living.

The biggest cods were around 30 kilos (60 pounds), we sell the fish on the market for $2.27 per kilo. So the biggest fish has the value of about $68

Daytona4130 · 31 July 2015, 11:56 PM

That's a hell of a lot of fish! Happy anniversary!
