Looks very good to me hope you win. What kind of bobber were you using. Need to get some before the outing.
Hey all you Michiganders, I just entered this video in the Crappie.com, TTI Blakemore, B'n'M video contest. How about a little feedback.
YouTube - Kayak crappies, for Crappie.com
It is not about the equipment you have to use,
It is about how you use the equipment you have. :D

A clear bobber of just about any kind will do. As long as it is not overly big.
I will often use a regular stick bobber if the water is dirty or it is windy, but when in clear, or shallow water on somewhat calm days I have much better luck using a clear bobber.

good luck, you did a good job with the video, hope your sun burn wasnt to bad
Got a little cooked that day. But well worth it. Figure I can fry my neck once in awhile since so many fish are willing to get fried.:D

Looks like a professional job to me! How did you have your camera rigged up? I tho't all weekend about those clear bobbers of yours.
Only managed one crappie this weekend. What's up with that? Should have been in the channels in shallow water with a clear bobber.
Life has many choices, eternity has two...choose wisely.
Unapplied biblical truth is like unapplied paint...how many gallons do you have sittin' around? U.D.
Well Don, it was a slow weekend for me also. Only managed a few good ones and a bunch of dinks yesterday. About 50 total with the majority of them being in the 6 inch range. As for the camera mount. A lot of trial and error narrowed it down to a regular camera tripod just sitting in the back of the kayak filming over my shoulder. Seems to work pretty good. Not to great when it is windy because I do not have a remote microphone so the wind howls in the video. Just using a cheap Nikon Coolpix camera. Later this summer my son is going to invest in my video making by upgrading me to a production quality camera and new computer and editing program.
Here is a pic of a couple of the better ones I landed yesterday.

Nice vidio Slabs
Thanks Bob, hopefully we can put together another one when you come up this summer. I might even have my new camera equipment by then. Look forward to fishing with you guys again.

well my weekend of fishing hasn't been going as plan, i ended up working Saturday till noon and with the wind i ended up doing house chores.
Sunday morning i was up well before daylight but the rain keep me from heading down to gun lake to check on yankee doodler, so i stayed home until 10.00 when the sun came out so i shot over to Duncan lake for some easy fishing.
I ended up boating 4 fish until my trolling motor quit , then my ff started acting up, i never had any problems till i put my new boat stickers on #(13) :D:
