GoPro Perch Strike/Hookup Video

[Brandonkop]

Here is some underwater footage thanks to the GoPro, we didn't even know all these fish were down there. Even though the water was clear with the snow on the ice it made them difficult to see in the fishing hut. I sped up parts and slow motioned the strike and hook sets. Makes it a little more interesting to watch. Good clear footage. Gopro was just sitting on the bottom. I have more footage from after we put it on a tripod but it was getting darker. I'll make that one some day. For now this is what I got.

It is under 5 minutes long, no narration.

Wicked Video. I sure love the GoPro's. Do you have the 3? I have it and they have an Iphone App that you can use via WIFI to view what the Camera is seeing. It's a little delayed but works well for setting up angles and different views. I'm just not sure the WIFI would have a strong enough signal in the water let alone the ice.

It doesnt . I built a custom rig for that exact purpose only to realize as soon as it hits the water, signal is lost.

A silly question.....how did you know what your go pro was pointing at....could you see it down the hole, or was it just luck it ended up the right way?

Actually I had the first GoPro wrist cam and then When they came out with the GoPro Hero that is what I got. So I have not upgraded since then, but this GoPro Hero Black edition is tempting me. I think I'll wait and see if they come out with a version 4 next year. But this black edition has amazing definition from the image reviews I've seen, and the WiFi capabilities are great. Too bad it doesn't work in the water.
