Over the past seven years the rods have fired off a number of times on-camera. The most memorable being 'that run' (see https://thecarpcatcher.co.uk/thecarpcatchers_blog.php?post=160). It's always a dilemma for me as often the camera is just put down in an instant without the thought of filming. I am then faced with the task of moving the camera whilst playing a fish, a precarious past-time for sure. Fish are often dropped when concentration is lost. However i feel it would be nice to get more of this footage in my films. Perhaps it's time to get the tripod out more eh :-)
