At least he caught a fish.... woulda been cool if the fish swallowed the camara ya reckon? It had a big enough mouth........

How long before someone claims that a full-frame camera would have caught a bigger fish?

At first I thought you were swimming, but you had it on your fishing pole. That is a good way to see whats down there! Awesome video!!!!

That's pretty funny.

Andrew Lang · 12-24-2009, 07:55 AM

Wow!!!

these units are tough. my last optio died after it fell onto concrete in a parking lot, only after it was encased in ice for 2 months, fell 60m onto a scree slope covered in snow and spent 2 years strapped to my harness out of a case while climbing.

tough cameras... and i will be buying another one.

ragingtornado · 12-24-2009, 11:08 AM

hah! was it used as a spinner or something?

PentaJP · 12-24-2009, 11:12 AM

Amazing and very funny

This could be a good ad for Pentax WR cameras. At least I am very impressed...

ilya80 · 12-24-2009, 01:48 PM

Yea used as a lure when spinning.

It has actual movie from the camera itself when being used as a lure. When I seen it I went WOW.

Nels · 12-24-2009, 02:29 PM
