It seems to only last a couple hours at most constantly running without the wifi on. Are you bringing out multiple batteries abs swapping them out? I'll be honest, opening the housing on the water makes me nervous. Sorry for so many questions at once

Get a 64 gig card.

No not filming non-stop

Battery life is about an hour, more with a 3+

Yes bringing multiple batteries

Opening the housing is no big deal, as long as you don't do anything stupid like doing it with wet dripping hands.

It takes away so much fishing time, setting up, positioning, maintaining and operating...Filming with the gopro is a huge pain in the ass. I hate doing it...but if you put in the work to do it, it can be worth it.
