They are the best!

You're welcome. Sometimes taking a few extra minutes to find the right spot can pay off.

Right! Wonder how long he was eyeing that down before he darting at it!

lol right! He was on a mission!

Thanks Brian! Glad you enjoyed. The camera makes it very educational. Been learning a lot and having fun with it too! Stay tuned there's more coming.

@@BryanProkuski Those fish can hear you moving around. Every time you slap your leg or walk, they fish react. Its clear as day on video.

Sweet! Its a great setup.

Thanks Brad! I bet you do have some good fishing up there. Underwater footage sure does make it fun to watch. Glad you enjoy!

@@BryanProkuski I have awesome fishing 20 minutes away.

Awesome and Welcome! Glad you enjoyed. Probably not too much ice happening in Georgia lol but our lakes freeze here in MN so we got to make the best of it. It is alot of fun and quite the experience for those not from around. Wish you could try it out someday. Never to late to make it a bucket list item ;) Take care!

Right! Sure woke me up! Wonder how long he was staring at it for before he took off after it. Great learning tool like you said and lots of fun to watch.

@@BryanProkuski I'll tell ya what I think is cool to see is when those blue gills are sitting there trying to make their minds up and all of the sudden they bolt. You know one of them Pike or Muskie is right around the corner.

@@greenpea9412 Never fails when your gills scatter... Here comes Mr. Pike.

Thanks Gary, Glad you enjoyed!

Thanks

lol... Right! He was like that meal is gone, ill try this one. Nope ill pass. Cameras are so educational. Been learning a lot and having fun. Can't beat it!

This was a fun one!

Thanks Luke! Glad you enjoyed. Hope you catch few fish when you get out!

Thanks! It is a lot of fun to watch them. Ice fishing can be tough as you sit and wait vs move and find like summer. Hope you have some success next time out. Cool German Sheppard Pic. Take care!

Thanks Phillip! Glad you enjoyed. That pike came in hot. Was a fun one. Take care man!

I've herd great things about smelt too. If I can get my hands on it I'll try it this year.

Thanks Wheiler! Glad you are enjoying them.

Hey Travis, that's awesome, Glad you been enjoying! Cameras will make it fun to watch for sure.

Thanks Daniel! I love filming them. Glad you been enjoying!

Thanks Ben! Always fun to watch underwater view. Glad you enjoyed!

You are welcome. I'll be making videos like this all winter. Stay tuned.

It's illegal to do that here in Minnesota. Otherwise yes be a good bait. Match the hatch!

@@BryanProkuski oh ok yeah didn't realize

Awesome! Welcome Randle!

lol.. I thought of the jaws clip too. Would of played perfect here. Glad you enjoyed. Thanks!

I wasn't but should be with the price of lures these days.

Thanks Roland!

Awesome! Nice work. I haven't used this rap a bunch but I will be now. If anything definitely calls them in and they can hit the minnow if need.

Thanks Cathy! Glad you enjoyed. Tail Tip can really pay off when fish aren't looking to chase down a meal. Goodluck next time you head out!

It is on default settings. It's the lake that makes the pic look that look. Super clear lake. Best advice on a camera is close to bottom and the shallower the better. But some lakes are just not made for cameras.

I'm going be using the camera every time out only because I make these videos and really like to capture the underwater view. The Revolution Pro is a nice unit. It's got everything I like, small, light, back windup reel and video isn't bad either. Run and gun type cam. The HD7i Pro is HD so video quality is top notch but heavy and bulky. More of a wheel house cam or sit and chill. Really wish they make a micro HD. I'd get that right away! When using cameras the lake and depth play a major part on how the quality will look too.

@@BryanProkuski Thanks for the response! An HD micro would be awesome. Marcum has the Pursuit HD but the back reel is ridiculous. Cheers!

Thanks man! Glad you enjoy the videos. I film with a GoPro Hero 5 with external Mic. Underwater camera is Aqua Vu HD 7i Pro.

Thanks Pedro!

Thanks! I don't always cut the tail off but does help when they arent looking to chase down a meal. White wacky rig? Like same as summer bass fishing. May have to give it a try.

Thanks

Thanks Mollie, Glad you enjoyed the video.

Aqua Vu HD7i Pro. $850. 75ft of cable.

I have a buddy that is going hook me up with some smelt to try. Stay tuned!

Thanks Ric!

Thanks Sam. Glad you enjoyed!

I have a bobber stopper on there. The yellow thread kind that moves up and down on your line. I usually use the flasher to find my depth but I was watching it fall on Aqua Vu so I could see where I wanted it.

@@BryanProkuski perfect didn't know that thread can be moved up and down the line. Much appreciated

@@NA-sq1qs Yup, I'll cut the access thread off after tightening it down then move it where need. Good Luck!

lol.. I'm good. Maybe if it was a walleye.

Thanks!

This is the Aqua Vu HD7i Pro. These new units have HD which the micros do not. I have the 5.0 too. Wish they made an HD in micro size. I have captured some good footage on it but really depends on the lake and depth for me. In this video where I show the weedline to the right and left of me that was the 5.0 so you can see the difference from this camera on same lake.

@@BryanProkuski awesome, thank you for all the info!

@@BryanProkuski I think you just solidified that I am returning my micro revolution 5.0 pro.

Thanks Bob! Ya I don't always cut tails either just happen to be this time. Definitely a time and place like for it like you said. Marshmallow....lol that would be funny. Just may try that. Got tons of ideas and not enough time lol. Welcome to my channel. I saw all the comments from you. Take me some time but ill get to them ;) Take care!

Thanks Daniel! Glad you enjoyed it. I have been having fun with the underwater camera this ice season.

I believe it's a #5

Thanks Steve! Aqua Vu HD7i Pro. This lake is really clear which helps too.

Oh yeah. When your fish scatter, you know a predator is coming through!

Remote control key fob. It will work with any underwater camera.

Like the guy below stated too. It turns with a wireless key fob and I don't see why it wouldn't work with any camera out there.

Parenteau Pup

@@BryanProkuski don’t understand

@@kylecarreon7021 The Rod is a DellaBay Custom rod. The model name is "Parenteau Pup". Link in description.

Mr Heater Big Buddy

Awesome! Have you been fishing shallow and weed edges? I love Rattle baits in 6-12 ft of water. Otherwise if you find the panfish, bass wont be far.

@@BryanProkuski Ok thank you. I hav tried everywhere there and have used some of your baits you use in your videos but I will give the rattle bait a try. Thanks!

@@vinnypell8713 Bass are more of the harder species to target in the winter but fun when you can find them. Keep trying, maybe move lakes if need. Stay shallow, rip rattle baits while minnow on dead stick next to you and look for weeds. Also, use DNR lake finder to figure out best lakes for bass in your area if you don't already know.

@@BryanProkuski Okay thank you for the info! Hey if your ever in the Annandale area, we would like to host you on our lake for a bass session! Afterwards my dad could hook us up with dinner on the black stone grill. He makes a mean tenderloin.

Right. He didn't get big for no reason. Funny how he spit that out too! Minnow was like...Thanks. Other bass....Thank you.

Yes you do! Love this hat. Go Bears!

This is the HD7i Pro. I have not tried it at night but might have to do so.

Thanks! Those bass fighting for it was pretty cool to watch. Awesome, What did you get?

@@BryanProkuski a better go pro and underwater unit can’t wait to get some footage

@@keapaishere Sweet! Always fun to get new toys. Enjoy!

@@BryanProkuski yup And finally see those dinks that keep robbing you 😂

Cabelas or any store you get your lures from. It is a Rapala Rattle Rippin Rap - Firetiger

lol I know right. Little Ironic. We use the term deadline for the pole we dont move or jig. Minnow does the work.

Haha man i got to get one of them minnows.

10" on this lake

Thanks!!

yes

lol touche. I meant watch some underwater fishing.

lol... Nice ears. I'm in the shallows so close to shore, Kids came out sledding lol.

Thanks Doug! I am using the Aqua Vu HD7i Pro. This lake is really clear too which helps.

@@BryanProkuski Ya convinced me ---- I'm buying one.

@@debrameyer3729 Enjoy!

Great minds think a like!

I believe it's a #5

Thanks Ron!

@@BryanProkuski Yvmw sir. New subscriber as well.

@@roniler7960 Thanks Ron!

@@BryanProkuski Yvmw sir.

Even with his tail cut he was quite the swimmer. I dont always cut them off but sometimes when strong swimmers I do so they dont get tangle up in my jiggin line or easy for fish to chase down.

lol... Technically Bluegills and sunfish are different but unless its a pumpkin seed , there all blue or suns to me. This one was actually a bluegill though.

@@BryanProkuski haha alright thanks!

I was too slow lol. Spit it out before I could set the hook. They do love them some live bait for sure.

Yes, you are correct. Unless it's a pumpkin seed (which are my favorite) I tend to call them all Bluegills or Sunfish.

I like that. Some one else mentioned silver. Might give that a try.

@@BryanProkuski Ive seen someone use a new purple color one & swears by it,Catches/caught alot of perch as well as walleyes. Although his is smaller in size,maybe even called a rippin rap micro.

@@roniler7960 Purple is great color for walleyes. Lot of micro raps out there. I'll check them out.

@@BryanProkuski Nice to know as would've never thought to try purple on my own. Whatever it was he used,The purple color was new either this year or last year. I want to say was last year.

Awesome! I may pick up couple more then. Think I'll try silver too. Really like that color for jigging spoons. I'll be back for round 2 on this lake.

@@BryanProkuski i also use corn nibblets on them to!

@@Fyyt Really. You fishing Trout?

@@BryanProkuski no, just pickerel and sauger, Jack and perch! Try it wouldn't hurt!

@@Fyyt Sweet! You may just see that in one of my next videos!

Hook wasn't in the stomach. I bass fish and know all about cutting the hook out. I am a big advocate of if its deep to cut and let rust out. I fish a stretch of river for smallies and have caught the same fish with the hook still working its self out. It does work!

No

no

Correct, If too deep, cut and let rust.

@@BryanProkuski yes if u can best thing would be take ur plyers and cut the hook itself off as close as u can to the flesh it's stuck in without harming the fish so that it has less metal in its mouth helping it eat better just a better option. If u can do it fast and not hurt the fish

Brandon Bryan Suggestion-- Cutting the line off at the mouth, or further works really well for me when I catch a limit of fish. Usually when you’re putting fish in a basket. I don’t try and perform surgery to get my hook out anymore . I either cut the line ( close) or unhook the leader and put them in the basket. If you have a fish that’s hooked deep, and don’t try to take out the hook with a hemistat, they will live fine. Yes, I believe light wire Aberdeen hooks will rust out. Gold plated hooks- forget it Charlie. They don’t rust. I have a feeling that all these guys out fishing that perform surgery and then say “ see ya later buddy “; those fish are dying in a day or 2. If a fish is deeply hooked, take it home and eat it. Don’t let it go to waste. Nice videos Bryan. You seem like you’re from The Southside ( of Chicago) or your family was. Especially with that Bears hat ! Keep up the good work with the videos !!
