Had the new marcum last year , it worked pretty good , you can see 3 to 4 feet in stained water and be able to see your jig or fish, tried the Cabelas cams last year also , dont waste your money and time , you need the best low lux cam that money can buy or you will not be able to see anything and the Marcum uses the best of them. Bottom line I tried them for a while and not worth the time or money ... they are just a toy...
