Title: Saugeye The Movie
Post by: Downthehole on January 10, 2018, 07:27:53 PM
All,

Here’s a link to some video clips I took with my Marcum Recon 5+ on Indian Lake last week:

I posted a review of the Recon 5+ in the reviews section last week. The clips were recorded during daylight so after early morning bite and before evening bite. The recording quality isn’t the best as I’m still getting the hang of recording/editing. I tried all sorts of lures and jigging techniques but couldn’t get them to bite (Made me remember I’m still a Newbie). The reaction of the fish is interesting when they sniff the bait. I thought it was a scent thing so I wore rubber gloves and still had the same thing. My thought on the Recon 5+ far is the great thing is that you can see what’s going on down there, the bad thing is that you can see what’s going on down there....

My money is on Bobby. I guarantee the ultimate “fishing tackle hoarder” has spear fishing equipment buried somewhere in his garage.

Your video is exactly why I refuse to buy a camera. It would drive me crazy watching that.  Lol

Lol. Yeah its bad enough when you can see a mark that won't eat your bait. To actually watch it on TV might push me over the edge

The interesting thing is that I saw fish on the camera that didn’t show on the flasher. I did have the gain turned down and in 5’ of water the cone from the ducer isn’t that big.

Agree... it's bad enough seeing them on the electronics and not getting bit.  Those were some nice eyes!

Nice video Andy.At least with the camera, you can tell what is not biting. Without the camera, I can try and convince myself the non-biting marks are baitfish. LOL

It’s been interesting with the camera to say the least.....
