Fish spotting at scenic places

On a visit to Florence Falls (Litchfield National Park, Northern Territory), we managed to spot some black bream (Hephaestus fuliginosus) in between the many tanned tourist legs.

Trophy shots of crocs

Hook-less fishing for trophy shots of saltwater crocs - a true Aussie activity in the Northern Territory. I actually wondered if anyone tried to attach an angling cam to that type of fishing rod? #Adelaide river

The making off - prototype 1

Check out this video below on how to hack a Rollei S-50 Wifi actioncam. We have soldered two wires to the shutter release and then drilled holes through the casing to connect a waterproof cable. The holes and connectors were sealed up with epoxy resin. The trigger was made of a piece of copper tin with two super magnets glued onto it, and which was framed on either side by two reed contacts embedded in epoxy resin. By pulling the piece of tin towards either reed switch, the camera fires. To the eye on top of the tin, a bait can be attached with fishing line.
