Underwater Kings Salmon strike footage- Homer, AK

[Kardinal_84]

Went king fishing Friday and Sunday. Managed 10 kings, kept 8 in about 7 hours of total fishing over the two days.

Not the best footage but I did manage to capture a few underwater shots. Better on hi-res and bigger screen. The bait was only about 8 ft back so the water was pretty murky for this area at least.

So first video is just the underwater portion.

Second video is the longer video with both above water and underwater footage. I was using my GLoomis GL2 4'6" ultralight for my downrigger kings.

I used a gopro 4 silver mounted on a downrigger ball.
