Another great day out at the river today fishing with some friends. A beautiful day it was again and what better way to showcase the Chilliwack River to some friends. Our hunt today was for some White Springs, the lower river offered the best success for newbies to hook up to a spring. Lickman was a good start but offered us with Pinks only, hiking was in order if we wanted some smelly white action. 2 hours later and several pools/runs up we connected into some springs, one chum and several cohos. Friend hooked up into his first coho of the year and he was excited as we worked this run from top to the tail out, the springs caught were not as fresh as I expected but nevertheless it provided some action for my guests.
Here is a different angle to our "bragging rights"
Enjoy..

That underwater video is great.

Took a lot of work to take thos video well appreciated ;)
-
Great video shots again Scales and congrats to your nice coho catch. Looks like you are into a new hobby of filming, buddy. Didn't know you are that good a camera man after having fished with you all these years. ;)
-
Nice job. By any chance, were you using the Lumix TS1 camera? I've got one myself, and it records video in HD. It takes great photographs, but I have yet to master the video and underwater photography! ;)
-
Olympus 850 if I remember correctly.

Thanks, trying something new, enjoying swimming with the fish and trying to get that perfect shot. Hopefully the fishing community will appreciate a different angle of fishing. Rod and some members have done a super job of fishy shots on this site which I always enjoyed looking at so keep it up fellas. ;D

Loved the video Scales.
On your advice I picked up a Olympus, but got the 6010. I'm in Hong Kong right now and your model is no longer available here. Will be back in Vancouver tomorrow and looking forward to getting onto the river and seeing if I can take some great shots too.
-
is the Olympus 6010 a waterproof camera ?? I dont think we even have it here yet :-\ We do have the super tough line from Olympus though which are nice and can take alot more abuse then the previos series of waterproof/shockproof
-
The Olympus uTough 6010 is same as 6000 except with a few extra features. The 6010 is advertised as able to be submersed to 3m and shockproof to a height of 1.5m. Not sure when or if it will be offered in Canada/USA.
I was deciding between the 8000 and 6010. Decided on the 6010 because it was not as heavy and cheaper. The 8000 is more robust though.
-
only to a height of 1.5m :-\ thats what mine is shockproof to (5feet) the super tough ones are supposed to be shockproof to 3m (10feet) perhaps you read it wrong or something. they are great cameras because i have dropped mine a bunch and yes they are good to -10 because mine sat in the snow for a few hours one day LOL

Check it out..

Glad to hear you tested the Tough brand out for me. ;) I am guessing you have the 8000.

I looking at the 8000 model which has the image stabilizer built in rated for depths up to 30 feet. My older model did hit some reefs in the caribbean but it's still functioning well with some battle scars on it.

Nice video scales. :)
Hope to see some more.
Thanks, working on the coho video, a bit harder to find a perfect candid shot, just some blurry shot not worth posting yet. Perhaps someone can add to this for us to see.
::)

I dont have a super tough which are the ones good to 30feet underwater and for a 10foot drop. Or at least thats what they say. I have an Olympus Stylus 790SW so it only does half the super tough. That doesnt mean it hasnt been dropped though LOL
My favourite thing is getting fish underwater shots ;D
