The lights are probably infrared lights (to help see in darkness).

I haven't noticed the fish caring -

Check out this recent video from my camera -

I've been using an Agua-vu camera for 3 seasons now and haven't found the lights to be much help.  The light just glares back at the camera lens even in very clear water.  Found this same problem with two different Aqua-vu's.  Hope you have better luck than me.
Happiest when on a frozen lake!

Very nice Jaimej!  The web page is nice too.  Did you do that for your family?

You got lucky I think on catching that nice Pike down there at Seeley.  Seems like all I've heard this year is people complain how you can't catch Pike in there anymore.  You definitely proved them wrong!  I might have to take a trip down there next year...

Good Fishing :tipup:
