Rainbows, Cohos and a Big King!

Hi everyone,

The following is a sampling of the fish we caught during week one of the Great Ontario Salmon Derby including one Chinook just over 25 pounds.

We have also been experimenting with a cannonball camera setup to add to the angles we already have and have included a few rough sequences in this video. The next video to be posted will be just a compilation of the best from those cameras - some cool footage and it's interesting watching the salmon and trout behaviours just prior to the strike.

For those interested, most of our fish during the week came from the balls set at 80, 90 and 100 feet in 100 to 315 FOW and the wire dipseys on the 3 setting back 250'. Predominantly a flasher/fly bite with greens being the most productive and a number taken on spoons, also glow green with dark spots.

Hope you enjoy,

This is fantastic film work as usual.. You guys deserve your own fishing show..

I especially liked the underwater footage of the salmon and trout smashing the lures..
Very cool stuff...

Thanks for posting.

I'm with Admin, love the cameras all over the boat.

The camera looking at the water splashing off the bow is amazing.

Nice video, may I ask?? If the camera is on the cannon ball..how much of a lead to the lure? would like to try this myself. Lure must be close to the release clip??
Thanks Greg

Thanks: Longshank, admin, Simcoe's Fishy Tale and Dinky. Sorry about not getting back sooner i have been tied up with work problems but enough of that. Thank you for the comments and we will be putting out a how to video to show how to hook up a camera to the canon ball for everyone to see "What works for us".
