That was a pretty cool screenshot. Were you able to catch the fish on your bait after it ate your camera?

I didn't have a bait down, as I was just trying to get them interested in the camera to get the shot....and it worked.

had the same thing happen over Christmas, frikkin recorder battery died about 2 minutes before, did get a phone camera pic of him wondering why the fish didnt taste very fishy. pretty cool to watch when they do it. had one rip the cable out of my hand when I turned it one time too. but then they ignore a perfectly good bait right beside them. fish!!!!
