Float Tube Electronics Setup

Hi all I thought I would share some photos of my electronics setup on my new tube.  I spent a lot of time getting it right but now everything works quite well.

The fish finder battery and transducer mount is from Fishfindermounts.com.  The fish finder is a Garmin Striker 4.  I cut and resoldered all the cables to a shorter length and covered them with cable wrap.  On the mount plate that came with the tube I mounted both front and rear facing Sony action cameras.   Both cameras have separate power supplies so they can run all day without having to remove and replace batteries.  

There is a small screen/controller velcroed to the seat side of the fish finder battery box.  I can see a view from each camera, and with the push of a button I can stop and start both cameras simultaneously. I can also switch between still images and video mode with the controller.

It was a lot of work getting it right but I am very happy with how it turned out.  Please let me know if you have any thoughts or ideas!

Wow, looks like an awesome set up Dannicus,

Looking forward to seeing some of your videos. AJ

That’s a sweet setup. Love the fish finder . I have the same one and it works great. Still learning some of the features. I’m sure it is more capable than I’m allowing it to be.

Yeah Max, I really use it most for depth, bottom contour and water temp., so I know exactly what you mean. One of these days I am going to have to dig into it some more and figure it out a bit better!

Sweet setup and thanks for sharing.
