GoFish Cam Review - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Pretty cool little camera. Initially had some issues when I first got the camera which were all on the programming side of things but seems like the programming has been fixed.

This camera has built in wifi so you can connect to your phone to view the footage while still on the water.
Also has a "nightvision" aka built in green light.

Cant wait to get this thing out when the water clears and some aggressive lings around it.

I believe it is illegal to view a underwater camera while fishing. Check DFW regs.

In the age of drones and smartphones, I was joking. I heard this rumor long ago, so I looked it up. Here's what I found.

Bottom question was about video on crab traps.

I know Carrie Wilson. She has been with the dept. for a long time I think.

I used to use underwater camera in my hoop net on mainland. I looked up the regulations and did not see any thing about it before.

I even thought about getting the camera for casting, but it is too expensive, if one looses it while casting.

Since I don't have a boat, I did not get one.

never heard of that either, this has to be out of the water to view the footage on your phone but connects to your device between drops and can be saved, so would be no different then a diver having a camera.

As for the corded cameras, never heard that they are not legal in California but would not surprise me.

Watch out for tide pods they looks so taste. That is the logic California uses, when making all its laws.
