Making Great Movies ' Fishes Video graphing ' Under The Sea , The question of where to photograph fish is moot if it is part of an existing planned survey, but for anyone specifically aiming to take good photos of a certain species of fish, water conditions are of the utmost importance. Shooting in already familiar watersheds can be best as it can be easier to predict water conditions, but looking at stream gauges and comparing flows to historic data can be useful.
Typically periods of low water are best for photographing fish since turbidity is at a minimum and often fish are more concentrated. Low flows also make it easier to hold steady in areas of current that might otherwise be prohibitive.
While it may not be the case elsewhere, here in the southeastern US, rain typically ruins water clarity for several days afterwards, unless you can find a watershed that’s fully protected forest.
When the water looks like chocolate milk elsewhere, mountain streams in the National Forests or parklands are often still running clear. Also important is finding an area that has plenty of overhead light so your camera isn’t struggling to capture the image. Direct sunlight is typically best, though overcast days may also work for photography so long as tree cover doesn’t block too much light. And of course, to photograph your fish, you must first know it well enough to find it.
It seems like this should go without saying, but it can sometimes be difficult to balance the requirements necessary to find both a good body of water to photograph in that also has appropriate habitat for the fish in question.
