You should also look into smartwatches, like the Garmin Instinct. They have fishing modes and GPS tracking, which is handy for finding preferred spots.
Smartwatches sound amazing, but arenāt they often too delicate for rough conditions? How do they hold up?
Thatās a fair concern! Many smartwatches, like the Garmin, are built with ruggedness in mind. They can handle a fishing trip just fine.
I have to add that some folks swear by the Oceanic Geo 2.0 for diving and fishing; the price is higher, but it performs exceptionally well underwater.
Thatās great info! I hadnāt heard about that one! How long have you had yours?

Iāve had mine for over three years. Itās still working perfectly after multiple deep-sea fishing trips!
Donāt forget the classic Rolex Submariner. Itās definitely on the expensive side but is iconic in durability and style.
But do you really want to risk a Rolex while fishing? Seems a bit excessive to me!
I think a Rolex at least deserves mention, but maybe better for formal events rather than fishing! Itās definitely not the practical choice for the water.
True, but think of the stories you could tell! I mean, who wore a Rolex while catching fish?!
