We carried out a wide-field TV observation of the predicted activity of the June Bootids meteor shower from 12h UT through 17h UT on 2004 June 23. We detected 9 meteors, along with 4 non-shower meteors. Although a broad activity was recognized until 16h UT, there was no June Bootid meteor during 16h - 17h UT. It seems that the activity ceased at around 16h UT. The activity of this peak was not rich in bright meteors, compared with the 1998 outburst. The average influx rate of meteoroids during 12h - 16h was 2.3×10-6 km-2s-1 (mag < +3). The relationship between the observed activity and several theoretical predictions is discussed.
