Which camera for yakking?

Go-Pro is good for video, but very iffy for photos. In the right light, under perfect circumstances you will end up with a decent photo. It even has a bit of a fish-eye effect, so it will make your catches look bigger.

The go-pro has no flash, no zoom, no image stabilization, does VERY poor in lower light conditions, and you need to be uncomfortably close to the subject to get them framed in the photo right. If you want a camera for taking photos, I'd look at someting else than the go-pro.

I've had an Olympus Tough for a few years. Haven't had the same bad luck as Wade though. I've beat the snot out of it for a few years with no issues. Image quality isn't that spectacular though, but it has worked for me.

I've read the Canon has the best Image quality of the group, but I could never carry around that big blue thing.

I think I may swing by costco to check out the Fujis, see what all the hype is about
