Lake Almanor Fishing w/ Underwater Camera

Another fishing trip to the mighty Lake Almanor. We caught some great brown trout (including a 5#er), rainbows, smallmouth bass, landlocked king salmon, and catfish. We got some decent underwater footage using a cheap underwater camera case (brand: DiCAPac model: WP-410) and my trusty Canon PowerShot SD1000.

I love the videos and beautiful fish. Where exactly on the lake were you catching those beautiful browns? It looked like you were trolling a sep's dodger and a threaded crawler. Were you using a downrigger? if so how deep? I live about 75 miles from lake almanor and I would to get in on some of that great fishing action

@ravmox Good eye, yes, I like to troll a gold or 50/50 gold/silver Seps Dodgers with a threaded nightcrawler. We were using downriggers 25-30 down. My best advice is to google Doug "Almanor King" Neal and read his excellent fishing reports that he publishes weekly.

Hi Jesse nice video and fish.

What kind of fish is that ?

I like the Dicapac case it really make a

fishing video alot more closer to the water right.

Yeah the waterproof case is a lot of fun, especially with decent water clarity. ;)

Most of these fish are big, beautiful Brown Trout, but there are some Rainbows too, also a Catfish at 1:54, a Smallmouth Bass at 2:31, and landlocked King Salmon at 1:00 and 2:35. Lake Almanor is a smorgasbord of fish species. I have a friend who thinks it is too far from the Bay Area. Only somebody who has never fished there could think that.

How much are waterproof/underwater cameras, and how do you broadcast them on a different screen?

I love the video, Almanor is one of my favorite lakes. Those browns are some serious footballs. The good old Sling Blade and worm combo really kicks ass up there.
