december musky underwater 

Thanks!

Thanks Paul for the kind words. The best part of fishing is being able to spend time in nature doing something you love. I wish you catch a big one!

Thanks Northern Mike, I am glad to hear that. As I am learning from others, I also want to share my knowledge.

MCO Thanks! I try to learn from your tips and videos.

Thanks Sergio! Glad you like it ... and the rig works great.

Glad you enjoyed it! I have to say I was very lucky to capture footage of that fish. This is perfect example of active musky that is determined to get the lure :)

Glad you enjoyed it!

Thanks Randy. It was a very nice day and I got some good shots so I just wanted to share it ...

Thanks. Tried to show the sequence of events as they happened ... glad you liked it.

Thanks. Yes, you will get lot of beautiful footage and discover new dimension of fishing :)

Thanks. I was using this setup for the second time only ... pretty sure I am going to use it more in the future :)

What brand is the underwater camera by the way?

Waterwolf uw1.1 . Got mine from: www.thefishinhole.com/index.cfm?action=products.get&kw=/WATER-WOLF-CAMERA/&mr=WAW

Thanks!

Thanks Tony. I wish every musky is as determined as this one ...

Actually, this footage was recorded 2nd time I was using underwater camera. I think I was lucky with that shot :). Have a good time at Kagamaga. Greetings to Dave and others.

Thanks Kim!

Thanks Edward. Yes, lots of nice water to catch them in the Kawarthas.

Thank you, glad you like it..

Thanks!

Thanks. I usually use heaviest, but for that particular video I think it was medium one.

Thanks. I am sure there will be better and better cameras available in the future to capture moments like this one. It is not too often that muskies are so eager and determined, and I was lucky to get one on the camera.

Thanks!!

I am using water wolf 1.1 camera. Absolutely agree with you on triggering the fish by banging rocks. I am relatively new to musky fishing, caught my first musky in 2015, but seeing how this fish reacted was definitely an eye opener for me.

Thanks. That is water wolf 1.1, unfortunately they are discintinued. They were great in low light conditions as you can see here

@@PJFishing clear waters. I am not sure I would get footage like that in the Ottawa. Where is this?

@@JontheWater true, water needs to be clear. This is Balsam Lake, very clear, especially in the late fall

Ah, you mean Batman and Robin rig :) Actually it was very first time I was using that rig, too. I learned recently about it from my friend from Mississauga chapter of Muskies Canada, Bill "The Silver Fox", who came up with it and is catching lot of nice size fish with it... In order to be allowed in Canada, one hook (middle) has to be removed from both lures (max 4 hooks per rod). I am pretty sure I am going to use it next season :). I am glad you like the video.

Do it all the time on a 3-way swivel Down lure and trailer lure Very effective! Spoonpluggers all over the country run 3-ways Check local rules for hook limits. Have doubled many times. LM, SM bass and Pike have not doubled on a Muskies ...But I will!

I used Waterwolf UW 1.1 and kept lure maybe 1.5 - 2ft in front of lure. Unfortunatelly, this camera is discintinued, but good news is that version 2.0 of the camera has been recently announced. Has some very promising improvements, but didn't have a chance to test it yet.

water wolf camera, and I purchased it at thefishinhole.com/

I just searched up the cameras, and it seems they are not easy to find now. But, when I went to water wolf facebook page, they are saying that they discontinued old camera and expecting new version to be available soon. I can't wait for this, as I liked the old one (despite its flows)

Absolutely true.

Those were my exact thoughts with the figure 8 while watching this!

The camera is Water Wolf 1.1. They are discontinued, but 2.0 is available in Europe, hopefully soon in North America too. There is similar camera from Aqua-Vu, but I haven't tried it yet. Rigging is simple. Just attach it to the end of the line and then lure to it.

@@PJFishing thanks this really helped how much is it

Thanks. I used waterwolf 1.1. It works very well in low light conditions.

@@PJFishing Thanks!

Thanks. Balsam. Lake, ON.

J Dean: send me your email address, will send you the photo.

Thanks 👍

Thanks. So far as I remeber lure was between 12 - 14ft

Balsam

awesome nice fish!!! I've fishing canal for pike but never balsam

Believer in a tandem setup. I had to take one hook from each to satisfy fishing regulations
