Water Wolf Camera 2.0 Field Trials!

Updates for the day

Brief Description - After an initial trial at Lake Glenn, I began tinkering with the Water Wolf Camera 2.0's mount. The OEM version tends to foul when casted because of the metal rod that protrudes from the back of the mount. Will need to test it but for now, did have fun getting to this point with trips to Lake Glenn and Bethany Lakes!

Location - Fished Lake Glenn in Arlington and Bethany Lakes in Allen

Weather - Overcast and cloudy at Lake Glenn and bright and sunny at Bethany Lakes

Gear - Cabelas Bait Casting Rod/Reel Combo, 65 lbs Spiderwire, and a Rapala Husy Jerk 2.5" Suspended Crankbait at Lake Glenn and various lures/flies at Bethany Lakes including the Rapala.

Catch - Two Bass at Lake Glenn and one Bass and one Bluegill at Bethany Lakes

Notes - Need to adjust the leader from 20" to 12"-14" for clarity. Also, need to modify the mount; camera fell off after catching the second Bass at Lake Glenn.

"Picture/Video of the Day"

Fisherman Beware of Turtles!

YouTube Shorts video where I place an underwater camera – WaterWolf Camera, under a float with a hook baited with bread. Soon realize… Turtles can steal a bait quickly!

This was several years ago when I still had the camera; I lost it while kayak fishing and never recovered it. Since then I have replaced it with a GoFish Cam. It appears the WaterWolf is no longer available… BUMMER!

The location was a pond in Murphy, TX that has a good population of Bass and Catfish that tend to be bigger than other ponds we have fished.

This round was a bust though… the Turtles managed to steal my bait without getting hooked.

Check out the video and note how the Turtle seems to position the bread to where he can easily remove it from the hook!

More Underwater Fishing Video.... #underwatervideo

Been trying various cameras and rigs or underwater fishing videos like we did when we had the Water Wolf Camera. Ended up losing it last year, so have made several rigs for an old GoPro Hero.

So far, able to observe fish and their reaction to treated and untreated Scud patterns as part of our test of the Gulp Garlic Marinade. Plan to continue “testing” as our results are inconclusive.

Did get the itch to try capturing a live bait strike with a Bluegill… no luck this round, but did find old video from the Water Wolf Camera as a consolation.

That said, since no Water Wolf Cameras are in stock, and learned GoFish – with a wireless feature, has cameras in stock. Placed an order!

Do check back, plan to do more “testing” of the Gulp Marinade and live bait action shots!
