With sight fishing, I can see the vertical plane, but I lack access to the horizontal plane. To counter this problem, I have 2 solutions.

First solution is to use a periscope to sight fish around Simcoe in shallower depths, but I'm limited by the length of the periscope.

Second solution would be using an action camera to relay what the camera sees to my phone. Only problem is wifi can't be transmitted in water. I'm planning to make a rig to accomplish this, but don't have much experience with wiring.
I'm looking to buy some rg174 coaxial cable to transmit wifi signal from the action cam to my phone.

*Takes a deep breath*

So anyone have input or past experience with this?

The length of one's periscope can be limiting if used in the wrong hole
