Can't go wrong with the bag of rice, broski.martalus wrote: ↑Tue Apr 28, 2020 4:02 pmSo the third phone was an i phone 8 in an otterbox case and it survived the dunking. I was fishing a lake about a month ago with my kid and I saw the game warden coming to check licences. I opened the zipper on my vest to get my phone out, where I had a soft copy of my licence stored. Then I see my kid get her foot stuck in a root and almost fall in the lake and as I reached down to get her the phone came flying out was quickly staring up at me under three feet of water. I immediately turned it off which was bit awkward once the game warden arrived and asked for my licence. I told him the story and that I hadnt printed it yet as my office was closed. Luckily he believed me and didnt give me a ticket. My four year old also distracted him by asking him why he had hand cuffs and a gun and about twenty other questions like four year olds do. When I got home, I put the phone in a ziplock bag full of rice and a few days later I turned it back on without issue. Apparently the newer i phones are more water resistant, but the key is to turn them off intermediately.
Back to the Musky-looks like a nice spot. Are there wild browns and wild rainbows in that section?

I have a Samsung Galaxy S9+ smartphone and I use it underwater all the time. Felt real strange purposely sticking it underwater the first few times but now it comes natural. I get some nice release photos and videos such as this one: https://www.instagram.com/p/B5FujGyA_4_/
