An underwater tour of the Big Spring, Kitch-iti-kipi!
Watch as dozens of lake trout, brown trout and brook trout swim in the aqua colored 45 degree water.
A kaleidoscope effect of ever-changing shapes and forms are caused by the clouds of sand kept in constant motion by 10,000 gallons of gushing water from the spring floor.
I don't know if you realize what you've done here.....this is the best underwater capture of kitchitikipi I've ever seen. The water looks especially clear and I don't think I've ever seen that many fish around before. I'm going through all your videos this weekend!
Thanks Steven! I hope you enjoy my other videos!
I've been to Big Springs dozens of times but I have never seen it like this. Spectacular.
This looks straight out of a sci-fi movie, it almost doesn't look real. Amazing job
Thanks EJ!
Wow, stunning. Best footage of this on TH-cam hands down.
This is epic in every way
Simply stunning! Love the drone to GoPro editing!
This is positively FABULOS!
Thanks LadyYoop, glad you liked it! Big Springs is a special place in the Upper Peninsula!
@@upperlimitsmedia4652 Pretty much EVERYWHERE is special in the U.P.!!!!
Amazing and beautiful quality video!
Beautiful!
Awesome video!!! Plan on visiting the place same day as this comment. How did you video this? Is anyone allowed to do this or did you have to get special permission? Have a great day!!
Thank you! The video was captured with a combination of drone and GoPro cameras. We have found that the rules change over time at various locations. So It's always a good idea to speak to the the people in charge of the property before filming.
This is amazing footage! We were just there and underwater cameras are now banned. Would you give permission to use 10-20 seconds of your footage to be included in our upcoming video about Manistique, Indian Lake, and Kitch-Iti-Kipi?
That would be great. Please mention channel in post.
@@upperlimitsmedia4652 thanks so much! I definitely will do a mention and a thanks!
This was very, very cool. I was there over 30 years ago but I never saw it from this perspective. How deep is that water? Thanks for filming this!
About 40ft!
This puts a new look on something I've seen so many times from above. It's a shame that it's so short of a video tho. But still super cool view. *More next time*
Plans are to make another in the future.
@@BlaineGagne very cool, look forward to it.
Doesn't seem there would be enough prey to support that size population. Are these fish kept alive by people feeding them?
I believe the fish are fed by the local DNR.
Wow! I was just there yesterday! How did you get a camera all the way down there?
Wilton, we used a GoPro camera enclosed in a diver's case with a bit of weight added.
Do they allow diving there normally, or do special arrangements have to be made?
I believe they have scheduled dives to clean up any debris but signs state no fishing or swimming in the spring. You could try contacting the MI DNR to see when the dives are.
Did you dive this for video or drone?
We use a drone for the opening scene and a GoPro 6 for the underwater shots.
How did you record the underwater portion?
GoPro in a diver's case.
How did they let you dive in or use underwater camera?
They dont allow anyone in the water except on that wood log bridge
The footage was taken a few years ago with permission. They have gotten stricter over the years including drone usage, etc from people not respecting this common courtesy.
It’s worth being arrested to throw a line in
Those fish are starving, super slim bodies with big heads. Lakers dont normally look like that. Seen this in lakes that have little prey fish and too many predators.
Adam Jones so they don’t have an exit to the lakes?
When I went, everything but the lunkers really deep down we’re killed by the otters. Took a bit for the population to bounce back.
I was told that the trout that are placed in here are old. This is the "geriatric home" for old trout from the fish hatchery. Quite a few look rough, so I buy into that idea. As for the food situation, yes, this is an unbalanced ecosystem. Little food for a lot of big fish. The worker there that I talked to said that quite a few of the fish find their way to the outlet and end up back in the lake. Those that don't...well, they're old and going to die soon anyway.
The DNR puts the lakers in there for the tourists to look at, some eventually make their way back to Lake Michigan
Was saying the same thing to my self
Where does it flow into?
It flows into Langes Bay which is a part of Indian Lake, then into the Indian River and finally Lake Michigan.

Looks great underwater
