Shane Procell Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 I observed some nice schools of bass in the canals along Tamiami Tr. in the Everglades. I wanted to observe them naturally so I put a couple of cameras in the canal and walked away for a half hour. I had seen bass in the tanks at bass pro shops and observed them in the weiva river but catching them schooled around the camera was pretty cool. In this video I saw the Florida Spotted Gar, Talapia, Bluegill, Myan Cyclid, Oscar, Black Bass and a alligator. I believe I spotted a pair of mangrove snapper, which does not surprise me since this is only a few miles from the gulf. 3 Quote
1234567 Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 Haha, those curious little guys swam right up to the camera as soon as you put it in! What was there that was keeping this school in that particular area? Nice vid, really interesting to see bass in their natural environment!! Enough gar you think! Quote
Shane Procell Posted November 14, 2012 Author Posted November 14, 2012 This was on the down current side of a road culvert, so they were hanging out for a meal. Quote

Super User BassinLou Posted November 14, 2012 Super User Posted November 14, 2012 Cool Video. Did you just shoot video or did you also get to fish a little? The bass numbers in the vid did not look like they were scarce. Quote
