Currents FishingWe take the Trident underwater ROV for its first dive to learn the controls. First dive site is in 20 ft of water off saquish massachusetts in October of 2018. The weather was overcast and was breezy so not high light conditions. We also did not upgrade the controller firmware to take advantage of 1080p video. This video is completely out of the box 780p with no color correction to give you a sense on what the drone can handle. We were able to quickly get into some sea life and find lobsters, crabs, flounder, skate, sea pearch. Ended up being an eventful first dive we hope you enjoy.
