Abstract
An underwater camera assembly to be pulled through water in a forward direction in front of a fishing lure is provided. An elongated main body holding a camera in a waterproof manner has a line attachment system positioned on the lower part of the main body. The camera assembly has a front tongue extending downwardly and forwardly from a lower, front part of the main body and configured to exert a downward force on the main body pulled through water in the forward direction. The assembly comprises stabilizing fins extending laterally from a rear-end part of the main body. The camera assembly has a very low mass while still providing improved stability and depth control during trolling.
