Go Pro Hero 5 to Phone Underwater Camera Rig

Been itching to get more underwater camera actions shots. Wanted to try a camera setup that uses the Wi-Fi connection to a mobile phone to get live action shots of what is happening underwater.

Understood the Wi-Fi connection is lost soon as the Hero 5 goes underwater. The Go Pro will keep recording but you can no longer control the Go Pro with your phone.

Found a workaround that uses cable like in Cable TV cable to maintain connectivity when the Go Pro is underwater.

Made a rig and planned to field test is soon as the hand heals but while testing the rig my sinking the camera in a bucket, learned the Wi-Fi connection stayed connected.

I did not lose connection until I was 20+ feet away from the bucket. Will have to test this in a pond. But, this is promising!

Do check back, plan to try testing the connection with and without the rig to see if the Hero 5 stays connected!

DIY Live Underwater Video Feed | GoPro to Phone Rig | Field Test

Finally, I was able to test the DIY GoPro to Phone Rig that would allow me to control my GoPro using my phone as well as allow me to see the live video feed to my phone.

Simple rig that used PVC, COAX TV Cable, a metal extension with a GoPro mount to hold the GoPro and another mount to hold the phone.

While testing the rig in a bucket the GoPro would stay connected via Wi-Fi as far as 20 feet without the rig.

However, in the field, the camera lost the Wi-Fi connection. I needed the DIY GoPro to Phone Rig to stay connected.

The rig worked!
- I could start and stop the recording, turn it off and surprisingly... back on too!
- I watched the live video feed; no fish but it was a field test more than a fishing trip.
- And, even stay connected up to 10 plus feet away. I did not have to have the phone touching the cable.


Links are included in the description and a live stream I hosted to detail how I made it...link.

In preparation for the approaching Trout Stocking Season, put a video together about three Oklahoma rivers - two that offer year round trout fishing and one seasonal fishery.

Do check it out; we also included some key items to be aware of in the the Trout Area Regulations and General Trout Regulations posted by Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation online at this link.

May be useful to first timers thinking about fishing this Season!

Good Luck and Good Fishing!

YouTube Shorts video of a TBT to a trip to the Blue River in Oklahoma - specifically, the Catch and Release Area. Lots of trout even close to our feet, but none on our hooks. No worries. Trout Season is just around the corner!

YouTube Shorts video of our DIY GoPro to Phone rig for getting a live feed view of the underwater action when fishing a pond. Cool stuff... this rig telescopes and uses a Hero 5. Check back as we are trying a variant of this one that uses a GoFish Cam and a telescoping fiberglass pole.

A Suggested Fishing Fly for the Blue River This Trout Season #shorts

YouTube Shorts video of a suggested fishing fly that worked well for us on the Blue River in Oklahoma last Season! It's the Pat's Rubber Leg fished with minimal movement under a strike indicator.

Do stop by Scotty's One Stop at the entrance to the Blue River and pickup the pattern in olive, cream, and brown. Great patterns to have in your fly box for those light striking trout!

YouTube Shorts video of a simple but effective pattern for trout - Simple Mop Fly. This one has a little dubbing to give a little more appeal finicky trout! Worked well for us on the Blue River and local ponds this past season!

Micro Fly Rod and DIY GoFish Cam Phone Rig | It Works! | Field Test 2

Another round in the field with the DIY GoFish Cam and Phone Rig that allows us to see the underwater action while fishing.

Brought the two piece micro fly rod to work the feeder creek for a Bluegill that we would use as live bait.

Caught two little ones but let them go in hopes of a bigger size fish. Then. caught a little Bass before finally catching a Bluegill for live bait.

After deploying the rig, soon had Bluegill as well as several Bass check out the live bait.

Liking this DIY GoFish Cam to Phone Live Rig. Will say this round was a success!

Checkout the video!
