I bought an inexpensive camera like $70 from Amazon, I download a free software to overlay and cut videos, my first trying it at HMB Harbor for macks with my Son...Not as great as GoPro quality but it will do. I cannot but $499 camera at least not this lifetime. it came with cases that will fit GoPro which by the way alone will cost 40 bucks as GoPro accessories. I cant find fishing song about son so I pick this one lol I hope he forgives me  :smt005 Just a trial error for now

Hey Darius, it's the memories that count, not the quality of the camera that took it. And best of all, the time that you spent with your son.
Great job with the video.

Going Fishing?
Winds from the south, hook in

Wind from the east, bite the least.
Wind from the north, further off.
Wind from the west, bite the
    best.

Nice quality video, but the music selection was horrible.  I just hate country music.  But nice video!
So long and thanks for all the fish!!!

Totally thanks kuya D. I've been spending lots of time with him lately. He is already asking when will I take him kayak fishing.

Costco online has GoPro 3+ with 2 batteries with a double charger for 299.
I bought it at 399 just last December. But your cam looks just fine. My only complaint with the Gopro is poor sound recording with the waterproof enclosure.

Garmin has the new VIRB coming out (or out already/soon) but it's still in that $300-400 range BUT works with GoPro mounts!

The one I bought was under $70 cant beat the savings for sure.
