Striper Jumps video 9/29

[JUSTINHALL]

Here is another video of striper jumps from Sunday, for all of you that can't get on the water.
I am using a top water and if you watch at 26 or 27 seconds in you see the striper hit the top water bait.

I could see the fish on the line at the minute mark....that has some good video! What camera is in that?? Can you control pan, tilt and zoom?

[JUSTINHALL]

At 54 seconds is when the fish comes up to the surface but at 26 or 27 seconds is when it hits the top water bait then dives down.
The camera is a Gopro Hero 3 Black, and no you cant zoom or pan it while in flight. With the Hero 3 you can do live feed via blue tooth to Iphone or Ipad etc but you cant zoom it. The Hero 2 is similar but no live feed and the colors are not as vivid. In this video there was no sun out at all was all cloud cover so the footage isn't the best the sun makes a huge difference. But if the same video was taken with a hero 1 would be a drastic difference and Hero 2 some difference.

Here is part of one frame showing the bait fish scrambling to get away. Looks like two athletes if you use your imagination enough.

I bet if one got real lucky and had a down camera you could get some extreemly good close up shots shots of predator and prey in the air. With a ton of fish jumping and x frames per second there would have to be some great shots.



The bottom one is blown up some

Ive been to Taylorsville lake a lot and seen a rainy day influence the hybrids into coming up in jumps on and off almost all day. Would a rainy day like that which is possible on Sunday possibly have the same affect on the stripers at Cland or does it not work like that there very often. Just asking, never been there after stripers in jumps during the day. Looks like a blast, just trying to take a guess at when a decent time would be to make a trip coming from frankfort.
Thanks for any insight.

It won’t make them come up all day but it will usually make them come up longer. Each set of jumps tend to stay up longer, more jumps occur and they last longer in the day. Same goes for over cast day and no rain it’s just the lack of sun that lets them come up longer and more often. On Cumberland the colder it gets the better it gets, so they are jumping now but the jumps don't last long by the end of October you should have good solid jumps. This time of year they can be unpredictable for most people.
The biggest thing is keep your boat out of the jumps if you watch the first video posted, I made a booboo and ran my boat right up into them. When I came off plane I carried more speed than intended into the jumps, normally this spooks them and sends them down. Most likely I would still get one but if there are other boats coming; they would not have as the fish would go down. When fishing with other boats be courteous and try not to spook the fish.

OMG dude.......try this. take your drne, add 30 feet 20 lb test, and a Redfin, and let the drone do the topwater fishing for you.

BTW, was that at the mouth of Wolfe?

Really agree with the courtesy thing. This is a recreational sport, for fun, so don't make it a life or death rudeness deal. Enjoy it and work with others in the area. Btw, the video show fish surfacing at a cove or mouth of a creek, at a point. So explore that type terrain all around the lake you you will probably see the pattern repeated where no other boats are at. Seek points near deep /channels that are the highway for schools.
