Not camera shy

[LMITOUT]

Had a little visitor show up on my camera this afternoon and decided to stare into the camera of my MarCum 825sd instead of turning around and taking the tasty bait hanging behind.

Thats some great video. Nice markings on that pike.

I take it you didn't end up catching him than huh? Still, very cool. Thanks for sharing.

They can be annoying with the camera down there, muskies are almost as bad.

Wow, that was cool thanks for sharing

[walleyehunter80]

ha you should have jigged it!

[LMITOUT]

I did jig it a bit and he took off. Didn't like that one bit. Came back a little later but then eventually swam away.

Hahah I love how it was just staring at the camera! Super funny.

really cool video. it had some great markings.

The first video is funny. I wonder what is going through the fish's head. Can you record videos on those cameras or did you just use a phone or something to record the screen? That's cool.

[Rippinlip]

Very nice. Thanks for sharing.

Great videos. What kind of a video camera did you use to record it?

[LMITOUT]

I used my cell phone's video camera. (HTC EVO)

The weird squiggly lines and fuzzy picture are due to trying to record the picture off the screen. The actual picture is better.

The underwater camera's lights were off when the pike was swimming around. I should have turned them on when he was staring into the camera to see what his reaction would be, if any.

Cameras can be quite entertaining when the fish aren't biting and darn near shocking when the pike are biting! I was out over the weekend and had a pike on my camera that just sat and watched my minnow for what seemed like forever. As I grabbed my rod out of the holder to jig my bait he accelerated like he was shot out of a cannon and took off with the minnow, jig, bobber and about 15' of line. It was amazing to watch! Good times even if I didn't catch the fish.

I wish that they'd show on stuff like that on these metro access cable channels.

This was one of many that scared away my panfish and posed for the camera.

LMITOUT, you weren't playing Barry White in the fish house, by chance, were you? I think that pike had more than a passing interest in your camera...

[Yetti Master]

Cool Video. He's so close to the camera he looks like a cartoon! Funny! Too bad he wasn't hungry.

If you look at the picture in my avatar long enough, you'd almost think that he'll start taking to you. Like was said, almost cartoon like or something you'd see on a TV commercial. It was pretty comical watching him stare at the camera for so long.

Great videos!
