A bunch of nice pics here!! I was inspired to check on some more then came across these all from one trip. I was lucky not to get wet on this one, but the action provided some nice views -
Note they are in reverse time order - forgot about how they load!

I just use my phone right now and am really careful, but I am looking into buying a waterproof point and shoot camera and leash it around my neck. I have had my phone slide off my leg right over the edge while I was releasing a red one time. Not a good feeling!

I use an old iPhone 4 that I can’t give away. But I really have Ron Envy, don’t get him started or you will have it too! :) I’m saving my pennies, no, make that hundreds. :)

My camera is an Olympus TG3 so water is not an issue. It rides in a pocket on my pfd (also strapped to it) and so is always handy.

As stated above there are many great pics here! Thanks for all the posts.

I use my galaxy s8 active. It's supposed to be waterproof to like 5 ft or something like that. I really hope to never test that tho.

I've had dedicated waterproof fishing cameras for 15 years. When the office added Olympus digital cameras, I bought the factory-refurb Stylus SW for around $100 because I was familiar with the software.
(before that, occasionally took out my film SLR in a bayonet bag)
My last 850 SW is still working, but the water seals are going (all the programming icons have worn off the dials).
Last summer for my b/d, gave myself the new Olympus TG-5, and it's remarkable for a pocket camera.

With good shopping, you can get the Fuji for $100.

Keep on a lanyard, and just drop them after you take your photo.

I keep coming back to this thread and looking at all these great moments we've all captured. They are truly amazing!
Heres one where arrived too early at a Matagorda and overslept in my truck in the parking lot. When I opened my eyes I saw this.Image I should've been 10 miles down the beach already but what a great horizon to wake up to.

It is. I've fallen off boat docks while working and mine handles it no problem. Salt water may not be as kind . . .
