Default marlin eats camera....

Hi guys,
I know some of you are out there are pulling your go pros underwater. We do the same and have heaps of great footage. Thought i would share this one as the marlin eats the camera, we pull it off him and he the drops back and eats the pitch bait...

Sub Cam Videos


Cheers,
Jason

He looks like he took a shot at everything in the spread!!!
I don't think there's much they won't eat when they're that hot! Boat fenders, boards w mirrors on em, bowling pins, anything goes!

Amazing. Given the noise and turbulence of the wake you always see in these videos, it's amazing marlin are there at all. Apex predator indeed ...

Another thumbs up Jason, very cool footage of both the camera bite and the skippies. One day you're going to record a school like that swimming behind the boat only to run for its life when a big blue appears!

This must be the best way to get a fish eye view of the lures. I wish tackle companies catering to the blue water fisherman, like Melton's, would put up troll cam videos just like Roddy has done for a couple of his lures. I really wonder if we set the lures relying only on the trolling camera - positioning them so they look as good as possible from the towcam perspective - how would they look from the bridge?
