Did the Total Solar Eclipse 2017 Affect Fish Behavior?

 

In this video I participate in a research project organized by Eric Gooding at the University of Missouri, Columbia. The Rules: Fish from at least 1 Hour before to 1 Hour after Totality. Fishing must be done with live bait suspended below a bobber at a depth of 2 feet. The bait should be cast towards the center of the body of water. Record time and species of all fish caught. Will the solar eclipse affect fish behavior? Watch as I attempt to find out.
