Title: Underwater camera
Post by: Noah H. on Nov 13, 2021, 02:17 PM

Good afternoon!
I was thinking about perhaps getting an underwater camera.
1.- what would you recommend?
2.- I tried a friends once but I couldn’t get the dang thing to look at my jig.  Any suggestions?
Thanks!
I’m only hoping to get one to learn about fish behavior and learn from it.  It also would be pretty cool to watch
Thank you!
Any tips or suggestions are appreciated.

Recommend our EYOYO Underwater fishing camera! It works very well for that price, only $130 bucks on amazon!

I have run an aquaview 715C for about 3 seasons and love it, 3 others I know of have followed suit.  It's fast and easy to setup, I like using the simple plastic camera compass I can have the camera up and running in two minutes.

I strongly recommend eyoyo. Best deal you will find. Excellent customer service too.
  As far as finding your jig, search for a homemade panner.  Several ways to make one, mine is just a bucket lid with a slit and a cleat to attach the cable.

I've run a ton of them. Right now, I have the Marcum Pancam. I works great but battery life sucks.

I also just bought the Aqua View 10i. Pretty excited to try that bad boy out.

Marcum 485 is so so.

Also the one for iphone is pretty slick.
