I can't wait for the Iphone 6 Lifeproof case to come out.
Thresher in avatar and Soupfin Shark in signature both caught and pic taken by me.

Always looking for new people to fish with!

It sure seem like there should be a floating case, isn't the S5 the water resistant one? I thought the made it just to entice me. I'm dreaming of a super useful kayak phone but IDK except for phone calls do you find it helpful?

Well, it's nice to be able to check in with family and take pictures of my catches, or if I don't catch anything, take a picture of a pretty sunset in hopes people get distracted by it and not ask if I caught anything.

Oh, and I also personally use it to mark the location of where I catch all my fish. I figure after a couple years doing this I might see a pattern!

I use Trimble app for gps/chart plotter.  Take pics of catch and scenery.  Use the phone to convince the woman I'm safe, lol.  Also one more piece in the safety arsenal. Makes a good Fish ID device too, if you ever land anything unusual.

Great idea on the use of a phone. I just got the 6, so need to wait for a wp/water resistant case to come out....

I only use my phone because my waterproof camera died, and I have not bought a GoPro or something else to replace it. Looks like I'll have to go to the craft store and try and find some orange high density foam for now....

It is out, only on their website.  Not for the plus though.  No life jacket yet.  It is thinner and lighter then the previous case which is nice.
