Camera for Tipups
« on: Dec 14, 2014, 06:35 PM »
I mostly use tip ups for pike im water ranging from 2-30 fow. Im considering getting a camera to help in placing my tip ups in along weed line and to watch how pike are reacting to my baits. Would it be a worth while purchase. Any suggestions. Id like to stay under $400 if possible?

I got the Vexilar Fishphone for the same exact reason.  Can set the camera out at the tipup and watch/record on my tablet in the shack.  Did it today.  The Marcum pancam is a similar device.  Each have their own features.

They do have a variable level light.  Its controlled with your phone or tablet.
