Playing with trout

**Mark Kranhold** · 06-27-2015, 01:45 PM

I was having a little fun on our creek feeding the trout some trout chow.All these fish are wild and it was fun to watch the different takes while feeding, the slurpers and some toilet bowl flushes. Most of the big flushes happened when a lot of fish were present and it became more of a territorial survival instinct. Anyhow just killing time with the camera and thought i would share.

Very nice, Mark. It'd be cool to have a place to watch and observe and photograph feeding trout like that. I bet it's hard to time that slurp just perfectly.

Very cool Mark! I would love to do a project like this! A good gopro on a telescopic pole might be fun. You could follow the pellet at close range. My new gopro has a Iphone ap. I can control the camera with my phone, as well as see what the camera see's. It also can take continuous photos at a rate of 30 frames/sec. and the image quality is stellar. Once you saw the fish headed for the food, you just lay on the shutter button on the iphone and rip out a couple hundred shots. LOL Might be a two man job...
