Best way to track this shot

[matakus]

Hi Guys,

Im having trouble getting a fixed track on this shot. It was filmed on GoPro HD.

Due to the caustics and resolution and grain, water distortion etc, im having alot of trouble getting a locked track. I have tried undistorting the plate, CC'ing it to remove most of the milkyness, 3d tracking, planar tracking and standard trackers but can't track anything that looks fixed due to the ground distorting with the water.

Any ideas would be appreciated. Obviously last resort is handtrack.

The camera animated manually?
