The best waterproof camera I’ve had is my Olympus Tough TG-860 with its flip screen.
It was replaced by the stylus tough TG-870
But I don’t think you can get them new anymore. Mine is 6 years old and still takes great pictures so a secondhand one might be a good option for a TG-870.

The TG-6 takes even better photos but it doesn’t have the flip screen and it’s a bit heavier.  A much better all rounder camera, but for a specific fishing camera I’d try and get a TG-870

My Olympus Tough is similar to Sandy's, but doesn't have the flip screen ...... which I've noticed is a very useful feature for water/fishing pics.

There is a TG-870 on Ebay just now Steven  :z16
