When Pike Attack! (Underwater Video)

November 21, 2016 By JD Leave a Comment

I tried to get the Northern Pike to bite my topwater mouse on camera, but they liked eating my [easyazon_link identifier=”B00R8I6W5O” locale=”US” tag=”fiwijd-20″]Waterwolf HD[/easyazon_link] video cam instead!

Underwater Salmon Bites: King chasing down a spinner

November 6, 2016 By JD Leave a Comment

You can learn some very interesting stuff by seeing whats going on below the surface. Check out this cool sequence I shot of a king salmon chasing down my Spinner Dave’s Custom Designs spinner. Again I used the trusty [easyazon_link identifier=”B00R8I6W5O” locale=”US” tag=”fiwijd-20″]Okuma Waterwolf[/easyazon_link] Camera and rigged it in-line on my leader about 3 feet up from the lure. I trolled it downstream at about 3 mph and got some sweet footage…

 

He’s in hot pursuit…

Right in the corner of the jaw…

Notice how the line in this next shot has gone slack as the fish swims towards the boat…

Now he knows he’s hooked and the big head-shakes start…

The violent head-shakes are why the bite look so cool on the rod!salmn-chase-8

Check out this rad footage of salmon and char chasing and biting my spinners. I recently trolled No. 7 spinners downstream with an Okuma Waterwolf camera rigged in-line and there’s definitely some cool stuff to be learned by seeing what’s going on down there!

Underwater Video: Lake Tahoe Mackinaw 200 Feet Deep!

July 27, 2015 By JD Leave a Comment

We just never know exactly what’s happening under the surface do we? I was over a big school of mackinaw on Lake Tahoe the other day and they didn’t want to bite. It seemed as if they had no interest whatsoever in our gear.

Boy was I wrong! I dropped my trusty [easyazon_link identifier=”B00R8I6W5O” locale=”US” tag=”fiwijd-20″]Okuma WaterWolf[/easyazon_link] camera down there and found that the curious little buggers were, indeed, very interested in my gear…more specifically my sinker! Check it out!
