If that was scarring up on the head and snout, you gotta think this fish wasn't the brightest bulb in the pack.

I could see the fish down the hole clearly; I'd guess it's a low to mid 40" class muskie.

That was really cool. You could actually see the muskies eyes looking toward the camera every time you started hopping it.

Nice...I really thought that fish was going to blast that camera a couple of times...maybe think about adding some rattles/ flashaboo. Thanks for sharing!

Jigging the camera is not a good idea. I have had them totally smoke it before!! I watch but don't jig the hardware anymore when I see them down there. Sometimes jigging doesn't matter though and the cam just gets ate, LOL.

Steve, do you have any footage of a fish striking your camera? I think that would be cool to see.

This is a great video Steve! I was thinking the fish was in that mid-40" class as well. I kept expecting the fish to eat that camera, and it looks like you were going for that, lol.

Awesome job!

Very cool vid for sure, ya really should have tried some sort of figure 8

The marks on the head are likely caused froma a close a call with a spear

Nope. No one spearing up there at all.

That is cool to see how you kept calling her back in !! How long after the musky left did it take the bluegill to come back around...?

Maybe an ice fisherman caught it but only had a 4" hole? Ultimately they broke the line?
