need help with camera

[bignate]

I just bought a Aqua view scout 2 a couple weeks ago, it is great for the most part. The only problem that I have is that when I have the camera down a hole that is within so far about five feet of my jigging hole the fish are timmid and wont bite, if I take the camera out they start byting. The camera is like a big bluegill, would this scare the fish?  Anybody have any ideas?
Thanks

are you fishing in a shanty with the aqua view in a hole that is in the shanty?

thats weird...i havent had any problems....but then again my cam isnt shaped like a fish...

Yes I am in a shanty , I have tried in there and outside the shanty, I thought about maybe disguising it as a log or weeds.

lol, no the outside camera has always worked for us.... 9 times out of 10 the fish attack the camera then eat my bait

I fish Crystal a lot which is pretty clear,and I have had gills and perch come right up to the camera even bump into  it.  I do have the Blue Gill also.   How long have you had your camera??I have had two cameras and never thought that they scared the fish.

I have the Aqua View as well....taking it back today actually.....getting the Vexilar instead....camera stinks in my opinion....but that is just an opinion.

I don't feel the camera stinks because it's fun while perch fishing.but if I could only have one I would get the vex first.

You know actually that could be a factor. If your camera actually does stink, the fish may be offended by the odor!
