On Camera Mic Placement

Is it possible to mount the Rode-NTG1 shotgun microphone on Panasonic DVX-100B so that it does not stick out in front of the camera. I want to use it to film skateboarding with a .3 fisheye but I am afraid it will show up in the shot with the fisheye attached. For following with the skater a boom/boom operator is not really a possibility. Before you immediately think didn't he search, I did, although I found a lot of useful information on audio and shotgun microphones I didn't not find a definitive answer to my question. Any help is much appreciated.
 
Have you actually tried it and seen that the mic is seen in frame?

I'm sure that you could get an extension/shoe of some kind to get the mic a little higher.
