Catfish in the river Mulde (underwater footage)

Last year I filmed a couple of times in the River Mulde. The conditions were not the best, but is was really interesting and it was fantastic to find three catfish under the maze of the underwater trees. This short clip shows the smallest one.
Catfish missing prey - rare underwater footage
Переглядів 185 тис.28 днів тому
European catfish (Silurus glanis) is considered to be a very effective predator. Recently I filmed a lot during the night and managed to record some excellent footage of successful hunting. But most of the time it missed the prey and many fish managed to get away. This short film is about these survivors.

I'm still testing the 50mm f1.8 sony lens and I'm still undecided about this. Luckily, my GoPro12 was also with me, but I forgot to re-install my AOI add on lens underwater and the battery died too fast, overall it was a successful dive and underwater shooting.
Night dive with catfish

A catfish with my dive buddy, Torsten. I tried an 50mm f1.8 lens for night dive that didn't work well. However, I took my GoPro Hero 12 with me and it worked better, tan expected.

    Which brave soul went into the water to film the Wells? That is a monster of a fish. I recently saw a 8ft 10" 280lb monster pulled out of a river in France. I would not like to be in that water. Look at what happened to Jeremy Wade in River Monsters, the thing turned on him and he was by the river bank so imagine in deeper water and that large mouth with its rough sand paper mouth gripping you, you would be a gonner.

      It's highly unlikely that a catfish would attack a scuba diver. Usually my problem is to approach the and film them from a close distance. Most of the time they just swim away. This one does not care during the night dives when hunting. Daytime he is more shy.

      Northern Germany here. Zander and carp are also not native to our waters, but they are here for such a long time , that people forgot about, that they also were aliens in the first place. I do not know, how zander got here from the East , though, but carp were introduced during the Middle Ages by monks in monastries to serve as food during the Christian feasting period , when the consumption of meat was forbidden. Many of our North German fish hatchery ponds or fishing club ponds were created during those times and are still being used today.

    Call me overly cautious but if Im scuba diving around Wells catfish that can get over 200lbs and legitimate reports of ones over 300lbs exist and Wells catfish are absolutely notorious for being very aggressive towards humans (saw a 10'+ specimen caught by Jeremy Wade still waist deep in the water when released did an instant about face and try to attack him) only way Im scuba diving in such waters is if I KNOW there aren't any records of any Wells catfish being caught over 100lbs a 300lb Wells catfish might not be able to swallow a scuba diver but it sure as hell could ruin your outlook on life

      It would be extremely rare but yeah those Wels are no joke. They could potentially damage your equipment or even knock you unconscious. If catfish are the scariest thing in the water you’ll probably be alright though. Where I live we’re more worried about gators and sharks 😅
