These cameras a good value? I need a new camera this year and don't know which one is the best bang for the $. Thanks.

I have one and I think the quality is very good.  However, I really only bring it when I am going to a new area and I want to check the quality and health of the weeds.  For me it is more of a toy than a tool.

Cheers,

I got one halfway through last year. I used it quite a bit. Awesome.

Changes fishing completely for me. You can see bites that you would never know occurred.

You can compete with your partner for the fishes' attention.  Saw a few big pike come in and stare, never biting.

I think the flasher is more important, more versatile, but the camera really makes things more fun.

Also, you can buy the aqua view underwater flood light and duct tape it to the camera for after dark. Big improvement over the built in lighting.
