That was a really cool shot. I have never seen anything like that before. The closest I have come is when I was pulling in a size 11 Rapala at the Saint Croix River years ago, and when I went to pull the Rapala out of the water, a loon shot out of the water behind it, scared the💩 out of me LOL
After further review, it was a juvenile being chased. At first I thought he was chasing a female. I wanted to remind them that they can fly. No need to paddle around at full speed.
I've actually had A Loon grab my minnow under A bobber one time , thought I had A big Walleye on when pulling it in and it was A Loon ! ....broke my line off then
What a fun video 😊

They are sneaky little creatures. I've had them chase my lures before, but it was close to the boat where I could see them.
Wow, cool shot!!!
Thanks Frank.
Haha! Excellent swimmers!! I even liked the loony tune 😛
Remind me to never mess with a loon. They are vicious creatures!
I had baby ducks chasing baits a couple videos ago.
But loons are Awesome Birds and I love seeing them.
Thanks for Sharing Rande!
That had to be funny seeing baby ducks chasing your lure. They must have been curious.
@GoMidwestFishing I think that was my "Back On the River video.
Some rad footage. 😎
Pretty freaking cool!
that's very cool
I thought it was a juvenile loon.....I was surprised at how fast that critter was!!😎

Get away from my lure, ya dopey duck! That chase reminds me of when I was a kid. I was way slower though. Thanks for sharing!
I'm just glad I didn't catch him!

They have chased my lure before , but never caught one. I couldn't imagine trying to take one off the hook. Probably better it broke your line.
Loons are smarter than the average fish! LOL
That is the looniest video I've ever seen! 🥸
Haha.. good one.
