Underwater Go Pro Footage - Housings for Trolling and Anchor Images
Following my posts last week containing underwater Go Pro images of fish trolling and at anchor (http://fishwrecked.com/forum/targets-aquired-and-captured: http://fishwrecked.com/forum/targets-aquired-and-captured-again), there was a lot of interest from members about the housings used to obtain the footage.
With permission from the manufacturer, I took some photos of the gear as shown below. I know it took a lot of time to perfect the design and based on the footage we obtained they work really well. The downrigger is also an important element as you certainly don’t want to “donate” the Go Pros to the ocean.
I am still intending to post some video but haven’t had a chance to edit it all yet. These devices allow you to learn so much more about the ground you are fishing, and fish behavior.
Ability is what you are capable of doing. Motivation determines what you do. Attitude determines how well you do it - LH.

Top stuff mick, thanks for sharing that
but one question, what is the quick release clip used for just above the red weight??
I also presume that the green housing is only used while stationary..
I've spent half my life fishing.. The other half I have wasted..
