FISH TV Camera

[mike jupiter]

saw this camera for sale at Dick's sporting goods. anyone own one? positives? negatives?

[jigginjoe]

ok don't own one but for $79 more you can get one that does'nt run on 10 D cell batteries and has a very nice case to protect it.Oh and has a 7" screen

got my own aquaview its alright, but i looked at the gauge of the cable used on the Fish TV, seems to me its built just like its price, cheap. but really for 100 bucks i guess if money is tight, then its a road that you could take.

Hey Mike; I don't have a fish tv but by the time you buy your 10 c batteries I think you would be over the $119.00 it would cost you to buy the Cabela's 5.5 inch camara, It has a soft case, better cable, and I am not exactly sure how many chew cans or crushed pop cans it takes to stick under the tv to put it at an angle that you can see it. Also the Cabela's one has the Cabela's name on it so if you have any trouble with it you can just take it back there.

I looked at them and after you buy batteries for them they are not really that cheap. I got a Cabelas camera which is equivalent of a Marcum VS350 for $119. Plus if you get there coupons it gets even better.

The FishTV also has a 12volt Power cord so you can power it via a standard SLA battery. And the cable is a different grade, but the camera is epoxy filled so even if you do get a nick in the cable it's not going to migrate to the camera.

A friend just bought one of these. It has a 12v power cord you can plug it in to a vex battery. It does have a really clear picture, but I havent seen it under water yet, I will this weekend. I will post my opinion of it then.

[Neiko]

Cabelas has theirs on sale on their HSOforum today only for $119. If you go to their HSOforum and click on th Hot Shot Deal it is listed there.

Wow! Thanks for the heads up Neiko. Just bought the 7" from Cabela's online and saved $60. I'll pick it up in Rogers when I go to Mille Lacs next!

[bigfish24]

just got one last weekend works great clear pic underwater. cant beat for it. you guys are just [PoorWordUsage]ed because it came out after you spent on the aqua vu

[NAPAFISH]

This along with Weed ez is great for the consumer. Hopefully it will lower the prices on Ladredge and Aqua views

I got to see this in action yesterday, the lake we fished in was not very clear, and you couldnt see very well with it, but I havent ever used any other camera on this lake to compare it to. I will need to see what it looks like in a clearer lake before I give my opinion of it.

For those of you who have these, is there a good carrying case out there, or a carrying case for another brand that works well with them?
