Ever wonder what is down there?

A bit of video at about 80 feet in LJ.

Do you always carry the setup? I want to check it out again the next time we fish.

Yeah, they will not allow it on mobile with the soundtrack. Sorry.

I usually carry it with me if I think there is a chance for decent visibility.

Yeah, there are 2 sharks, lots of sheepshead and a couple of rods and reels if you look real close. On the original it is easy to see the stuff, but something gets lost in the translation.

Hell yes I have. I've always wanted to dive LJ, with my GPS in hand...
Greg, you took it to the next level!
How did you do it, the video stream is pretty stable.
Don't tell me you had GoPro hanging on your bounceball rig...

GREAT VIDEOS!!!

Toes alert, look what we had come under our light the other night...
We estimated 6-7 ft, it hung out with us for a good 30 mins...
When I saw it, I dropped the chicken I was eating out of my hand...
It came right back and inhaled it promptly...

Very cool. Pic of your camera rig?

Lat/lon of the rock pile at 8:30 in the first video?

It would also be interesting to do that across the a branch of the canyon, or the channel in SD bay.
Or trailed a 3-4ft leader with some type of lure to see what the fish do.

What are those yellow lines at 2:09 in the first video?

They look kinda like anchor lines but they're almost vertical.

There is another probable 7gill in the last minute or so of the first vid, but kinda hazy. I will take a couple pics of my setup in the next day or two and post them. Basically the camera is mounted to a finned downrigger ball (4lb). I do have the option to attach a quick release for attaching a bait behind the camera too, but it is as tough to deal with as a bounceball rig with a flasher.

You should have seen the hammerhead that wanted to jump in my skiff last year at night! Scared the piss out of me! Sharks at night get pretty fired up! Not fun!

AWESOME video Greg! i have dove La Jolla a lot in my short years here in paradise!

Those sharks are all over the place! The last one I saw was while night diving for bugs.... I guess the hoop nets chummed them up!

Ok, here it is.




Made a flat lens out of a piece of good plastic and the top part of a multivitamin container. Epoxied the two together and then attached to the GoPro housing with Plumbers Putty. Used enough connectors to get the camera above the downrigger ball. Connected a 3-way swivel via 35lb mono to the ball, 65lb braid to the first connector below the camera and the third to my imitation downrigger. The braid to camera connection remains loose unless the mono should break (kinda like an anchor connection). Should the ball become stuck, I can break the mono and pull from the camera connector. This may allow me to pull the unit out backwards, or at least pull the camera from the ball (only sticky tape holding mount on).
