The Kickstarter-funded 'GoFish Camera' is a rugged underwater action camera for fishing. The durable camera was designed by two brothers who wanted to use technology to explore what was happening underneath the water.
The GoFish Camera is intended for trolling, bottom fishing or cast-and-retrieve fishing in both saltwater and freshwater environments. The camera itself is designed as a cylindrical shooter that you can attach to your fishing line. The waterproof device contains stabilizers and a 170 degree wide-angle lens that allow you to capture your angling adventures in crisp 1080 p. The camera works up to 150 meters below the water and even contains infrared lights so that it can be used at night.
While action cameras for fishing are not exactly new, the GoFish Camera helps you capture underwater action like never before.
