Some on big shares it and all of a sudden your hits climb by the thousands.

You really need to look at a way to make some cash on this.

They want to use my video so I said ok it they make a donation to BC whale research versus paying me anything.

Anyone know a pro fisherman whale research outfit in BC?

You ought to cash in on this if you can. Why not get paid for it and then take the money and donate it to a whale research group of your choice? That way they get their donation and you get a receipt for tax purposes.....win/win!

I admire your generosity but there's a better, more business like, way of going about it IMO.

Starting to go viral

Type "whale fisherman" into google and first hit down....

http://sploid.gizmodo.com/friendly-w...-hi-1532293759

I think your video is riding the "wave" pun intended of this video...

http://atlantic.ctvnews.ca/mobile/wh...iral-1.1704983

People are looking to cash in as people search for whale videos and get yours and in effect their advertising.

CRAZY MORNING

Woke up. Have an urgent email to call Global TV this morning about the video. I have a call from a Japanese TV show wanting an interview. I just confirmed the video to go on Daily Planet tonight (Discovery Channel).

Good thing I took today off. I am thinking I will be very busy.

If I project the revenue...looks like about $500...so it is not a big score. Maybe if it goes to 1 million hits...

Last I checked $500>$0.00

I commend you that you aren't overly concerned with the $$$. Kind of a neat thing to have happen!

Japanese media is trying hard to get ahold of me. They are trying to find a translator. Also want me to skype an interview.

not sure. CTV BC put it up without asking. Global BC is asking.

Japanese TV is trying to track me down...the time change is a problem. They are saying they won't pay because they are non profit.

BC Global TV just put it up on their website and will air tonight on TV. It will be interesting to see what happens with the traffic. I did not accept payment.

This video was taken by one of our salmon guides up near the Queen Charlotte's, fishing for salmon and ending up with a killer whale on the line for a short while. Supposedly he sold the rights to Canada Tourism or some such (Come to Canada and catch a whale!!!) and was getting residuals.
