Top 10 additional FAQs:
Does it float?
No. The camera is designed to have a slight-negative buoyancy so as not to impede the movement of your lure. It does not float and has a slow sink rate when placed in water by itself. It's designed to follow the lead of whatever lure you are using.
What if I lose it?
To prevent loss, use a high pound test braid as your mainline and a lighter mono leader. This assures the weakest point between the lure and camera, and not the main line between camera and reel.
We also offer a 1 year camera loss protection through GoFish Cam’s website. GoFishCam.com/cameraloss
Can you watch it live?
Yes and no. When the camera is underwater it will be recording only. Once retrieved, you can download the footage to your mobile device upon exiting the surface of the water. It will live feed when used in conjunction with the included bobber accessory above water. This allows the sensor to be out of the water and will live feed between 20-30ft away from you.
How deep can you go?
Unit is warrantied up to 500 feet, but we have tested units up to 2000 feet with no issues.
Does it have a warranty?
Yes, all units are covered for 1 year on electronics, battery, and leaking. Salt or freshwater.
Do you have to replace batteries? How long does the battery last?
Camera is rechargeable via micro USB. It contains 2 internal lithium-ion batteries. At max resolution (1080p@60fps) a full charge allows up to 1.5 hours record time. Resolution can be lowered on the camera to 1080p@30fps or 720p@60fps which can allow about 2 hours.
What's the memory of the camera?
The camera does not have an internal memory. Customers will need to put in a micro SD card up to 64gb (not included with cam).
Do I have to use my phone?
No. You can also plug the camera into a computer like a regular digital camera to review footage or use a microSD card reader.
How does the camera record?
Camera records constantly but separates footage into 1 min clips for easy download.. (can be changed in app to 3,5,10 minutes or continuous recording).
Will it work in murky or dark water?
Yes. Camera is equipped with optional LED green light. Shorten the leader length for less water clarity to make sure the lure is still visible. (1 ft minimum)
