Hi all here is my quick river made sniping tool.
80mm pvc with clear end and strapped my dive torch on the side.
you know what its like trying to find a target in cloudy/murky water...just push it down to a inch above the bedrock ,light on and perfect vision.

I should post a picture of my under water viewer I've made. Very similar, minus the torch :)

You need to glue a piece of gold onto the glass, so your always seeing a bit of colour, :-)
