Title: A few videos of the last few times out.
Post by: swampbuckster on Feb 17, 2013, 06:40 PM
Ok, the camera quality on my phone is poor but here are a few short clips from the last couple trips out. Finally have found a productive lake and productive waters.
A small pike came to look at the deke but never wanted to commit to it.

Here is some giant gills and crappie that came in to the decoy. A crappie first, then a big gill swam through the corner of the hole, then another large crappie swam through. I did catch quite a few nice gills that day and saw three legal size pike in a half hour. The large crappie wouldn't hit but did pull two smaller eater size ones out. I go to set the hook but miss twice at the end. Lol.

This last one was from tonight. He was maybe around legal size but didn't want to risk it.

It's a start. Keep practicing and the videos will get better.

I am going to invest in a camera and come up with an overhead mount for next year.

I have done some using a video camera attached to my Marcum 825. Makes it so you are on their level. Good luck with it. A very fun past time, hobby.
