Tutorial for fishing for Bass with an Aquavu?

[carlcmc]

I was at Cabelas on Sundary for my wife's birthday and ended up getting the Aquavu SC-100. (Ya buying something for myself on my wife's birthday=a very understanding wife).

BTW i did get it for a great deal. got it for 350 (list price 599, ticket price for some reason at cabelas at 499, used the promo card of spending 500 and get 150 cash card.).

So now i have this underwater camera with a color screen.... how do I use to help my fishing?

What would be things you guys would recommend I do that would enhance my understanding of fish and be most productive in catching.

I realize that for shallow water it is of limited benefit. Plus I do well enough in the shallows. What about underwater humps and deep weedlines. Do you just anchor or do you troll slowly looking?

Impart some wisdom to me and I'd appreciate it!

Congrats on a great purchase!

I use mine a ton!I dont have the exact model you have.. but I do have an Aqua-Vu. Often time you will mark fish out deeper and wonder what they are.. drop the camera down and see for yourself... I use mine to look for trasitions.. IE from sand to rock Or any other kind of trasition.

Any place out deep you think a fish may be, drop the camera down and take a look, you can see how they are relating to the structure, weather they are tight to the bottom or suspending a bit. If you are trying to learn to fish deep, an Aqua-vu is a must. Fish only areas you know fish are, then its just a matter of finding what they will bite on.

I have found so many wonderful fishing spots with my Vu I know you will enjoy it!

as for your question.. I usually just slow troll over an aarea.. either a wind drift or with the trolling motor.

Thanks for the info. I hope to get out and use it at some point after spending the money on it! May have to try it on walleye as well...
