Trout spotting in Lapland

In August 2017, I paid a visit to a fish farm in Northern Sweden. I was hoping that rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) would like to nibble on PhishPic's tasty bait ball. This time I rigged it with the Hugyfot Arius 1500 Divelight to turn on the spotlight. Check out the video below.

Turned out that rainbow trout were really camera shy. The bait ball filled to the brim with gooey pellet dough could not entice them at all. I know the whole rig still looks more like a BRUV (baited remote underwater video), but at least you can deploy it with a fishing rod. Liasing currently with a couple of talented engineers to realise my new, less bulky idea. So, watch this space in 2018. Happy New Idea!
