Eric Engbretson captures some amazing underwater footage, and now he's joined Youtube. His company, Engbretson Underwater Photography, has been capturing bass and other species in their native environment since 1993, and it shows with this stunning footage. Check out his Youtube channel for more videos of bass and other species.
Often in the spring, some lakes in northern Wisconsin can be astoundingly clear. Under these conditions, it's possible to get some truly outstanding video of the fish life underwater. In water this clear I feel like I'm in an aquarium when I'm below the surface filming these fish. In this latest clip you'll see chunky smallmouth bass in their underwater home in one of the clearest, sharpest underwater videos from a freshwater lake you'll ever see.
It's interesting to see exactly how bass pick up crayfish and eat them. In this compilation showing several different crayfish being consumed by Smallmouth Bass, you can see how the fish almost always head toward the surface. Small stones, plants, detritus and even parts of the crayfish claws that break off are expelled from the mouth before the crayfish is swallowed.
