Blues underwater video

Rapinn Mickey post gave a little bit of consolation that I am not the only one not catching bass. Last night was the first night where i've seen them willing and in numbers but bigger that 12 inches like the first wave we got.
Bluefish?
They just about ate every damn bucktail I was willing to give them.
All while testing this new camera by Water Wolf, i have no idea how they did not cut it off considering they swallowed the whole camera more than dozen time on video
I am thinking some of you canal guys will be able to get some sick footage once big fish roll around

Crazy- we finally live like George Jetson. I think the age old controversy about if there is a tail slap will soon be answered.

If Zeno is getting skunked, I really take solace in that but I feel your pain my fellow LIer!

I make sure my underwater cams have wire/7strand 700lb test as leaders. Nothing is going to bite mine off, come on Mr. Mako.

i hear you but i really have no interest in actually hooking the fish on camera and have it spin for 5 minutes. That's why all the hooks are cut off. If you look closely you will see that the blue in video is hooked onto hook shank, there in no barb or point..lol

Zeno, how does that camera affect plug action? Are you planning on trying to do a bucktail video? Seeing that jig and pick plummet into a hole and come up with a fish on it or see the bucktail get ambushed....that has to be cool.

depending on the design. as far as bucktail unless you going to use a 1/4 ounce bucktail its going to be really hard

I'd say about 20...most times completely swallowing it before spiting it out

That was great
thanks for sharing

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.
