Plus.....if a dink comes to take the bait, i jerk it away from him. at least with perch anyway.
I have we will say a few of the Aqua Vu's, I used my quad yesterday to watch a trout come in. when the water is murky you just have to set the camera closer to your jig. I have a mount that I set mine on when I'm fishing on the bottom so your camera wont move and spook the fish. The trout I caught yesterday made a few strikes at my camera for some reason. It was cool to watch.
nope. i put a spell on your jign rods LT to automaticly reel in when that bass is comn' in. good luck
any of your cameras have night capabilities? (lights?)
If you mean using just a light down or above an icehole to attract baitfish and catch fish (no camera) that gives the G&F guys heartburn and is quite illegal here, although cameras equipped with lights of both varieties is ok. I have also heard of wardens who feel cameras equipped with ANY lights are illegal, and then there's the argument lights don't attract fish, they attract bait which, in turn attracts fish., as I said, it only takes one G&F guy to disagree with that concept.

You should decide to I bet you could get into them pretty well.Have you ever caught very many through the ice up there LT?---
I have a aqua vue that has taught me a lot about what the fish think when I am jigging a rod. Have had good luck even in 40 plus foot of water at boysen with being able to see as far as 20ft . Also had it as little as 2ft in bad murky water. Once to sun gos down I pack it up and put it away. The lights only let you see about 1ft max and the fish spook coming in that close to the camera. I break out the showdown once it gets dark or it is murky. The camera will help with other things that a flasher wont like what is on bottom, finding that rod that got pulled down the hole and hooking that rod and pulling up the fish that took it. Hey the fish gods were on my side that day. Goodluck out there and stay safe.
