At Youfish.nu
all the world’s fishermen can have their fill at last. Here you upload
your own fishing film cuts, film spots and films. Or do as most others
– look at fishes, enjoy and appraise.

Max Gylling and Mathias Larsson are the brains behind Youfish.nu.
They are both extremely interested in fishing and at the same time IT
is one of their big interests. They are convinced that there is a need
of such a site.

“Bearing in mind the poor
covering fishing has on the TV-screen, I know there is an accumulated
need for fishing films. Most fishermen love to check out other’s fishes
and fishing situations, says Mathias.

“Besides,
today already many fishermen always take pictures of their fishes, so
there is not a great step to moving pictures.”

First in the
world

Youfish.nu is the first film site in the
world dedicated only to fishing. It is in English and just as on other
film sites anybody can upload their own film. After, the film spot is
judged by the viewers on a scale from one to five.

1 “A film that gets popular can rapidly have a worldwide
circulation: as on Youtube,” says Max Gylling.

But Youtube and the other big sites are too big. By creating a site for
fishing spots alone, we also create a kind of forum where fishermen can
meet. Some films can be interesting for everyone, but other films might
be appreciated only if you are a fisherman.

The
site opened recently, but already now there are several films from
Germany, Spain, USA and the entire Scandinavia.

3 It will take about a year to get established, but our goal is
that all people who’s got fishing as a sport throughout the world with
access to Internet will know of Youfish.nu, says Max Gylling.

A serious
hobby

For the time being Youfish.nu is run only
on a hobby basis, but Max and Mathias are aiming high. “The site is on
a very powerful server and already today Youfish.nu can receive films
in 20-30 different formats where the file may be maximum 100MB in size.
There is no special knowledge required to upload one’s film. You can
even upload a film directly from the mobile phone via 3G, which means
that just about a minute after you’ve caught the fish of your life, the
film can be viewed by others at Youfish.nu,” says Mathias
Larsson.

Max and Mathias are not completely new
in the game though. They already run the Swedish site
Sportfiskeforum.se, a site that has become one of the biggest fishing
sites in Scandinavia with up to 90. 000 unique visitors per month. With
Youfish.nu we want to reach even further. Here you can share your
fishing experience with the whole world!
