    You should do this for every spillway. I love seeing what's down there.

    The underwater gopro footage was amazing! I'd definitely like to see something like that again. That big head carp definitely counts as a spillway monster. Cheers

    Nick, thank you for your video's!
    My 11yr old daughter and I REALLY love watching your videos together. The videos are clean and thank you for not cussing like an old salty fisherman.
    She is my fishing partner and hope's one day to catch a monster of the deep.
    Keep up the good work

      My 100 year old grandfather who recently passed loved catfishing. My mist cherished memories are going fishing with him. I still remember how his 77 F150 smelled. Get out there with your kids and grandkids as much as possible. Those memories you make will be the most valuable things they’ll ever have.

    Hopefully one of these times I can see you out there. They used to block the whole river off right before the creek branches into it down the bank a little bit. There is actually a wall about where the hand rails end about 3 feet off the bottom. But just as your underwater footage shows it's primarily where the big head like to hang out. Occasionally you will see a school of silvers pushes up in there aswell.

      It's in Illinois. Not many catfish in this part of the spillway but it's always full of carp year round.

    I love underwater videos. It's always nice to see the fish in their own environment without having to pull them up every time to get a look at em. Plus, it gives you insight and helps you increase your chances of success in the future. I'd love an underwater strike video, too, at some point. If you could manage to pull that off without too much hassle on your end, that would be an awesome video for your channel

    Great vid! Tried the same with my GoPro while ice-fishing a few years back. Had the same initial problem with the camera spinning and ended up using a pole (cut down a tall sapling at the shore). It looked real crude but worked perfectly (just remember to keep the string attached, as a safety, in case the camera gets knocked off the pole!) I also ended up using a divers flashlight after a few tries with a watertight one and as I recall, the difference between the two light sources was huge. It’s always a blast seeing underwater footage of the places you fish 👍🏻 Thanks!

    Tie the camera about a foot or two from the hook and see if u can catch the inspection bite and catch all while viewing the fish.
    Another idea is secure a lead weight a few feet below the camera so when its on the bottom the camera will be in a great depth to view the fish insead the bottom of the waterway. None the less, a neat video and i do hope you do another!
