Want to see what's really going on under the water or ice? You
can eliminate some of the mystery beneath the water or ice and
expand your knowledge by using an underwater fishing camera. An
underwater fishing camera can be a wonderful tool and great fun
too. An underwater camera can show you many things about your
fishing techniques. It can be your eye underwater and you won't
even get wet.
See more fish, catch more fish, and have more fun fishing with
an underwater fishing camera. You can put yourself eye to eye
with the fish in their natural environment. You will be able to
identify different species and how they react to your bait
presentation. With an underwater fishing camera, the ice angler
easily can determine the size and species of fish. (Fish can be
detected with sonar, but it cannot identify what kind they are.)
What is the lake bottom like? Sonar can tell you whether the
lake bottom is relatively hard or soft, but it's difficult to
tell whether the lake bottom is sand, gravel, or small rock. The
camera shows the bottom easily and can help avoid problems.
The underwater fishing camera is also great for entertainment.
You can watch fish and their reactions, even if they aren't
biting. It is also great to just record your fishing adventure
so you can bring it home and show all your friends and family.
There are different models of underwater fishing camera and
video mechanisms for you to choose from. Use an underwater
camera for fishing or diving purposes, or as a supplemental
piece of equipment used for ice fishing.
You should be able to see under water from about two feet up to
50 feet. Average viewing distance in fresh water is five to ten
feet. In saltwater, the average is seven to fifteen feet.
You can easily attach the underwater fishing camera to a
standard down rigger. Using a standard release clip in reverse
the camera is attached to the cable just above the cannon ball.
The current will make the camera look backwards at your bait
while you fish.
For high-speed fishing your underwater fishing camera can be
towed through the water on the HST (high-speed tow) accessory.
With the HST accessory you can tow the camera up to 12 knots and
have your lures drag directly behind the camera to catch any and
all strikes on video. The camera can look straight down or to
the side, and even look slightly back up towards the surface.
They are fully adjustable and versatile.
There are several options for controlling the camera while in
the water. There's a stabilizer fin for high current areas and a
camera rotation handle for low current areas. By turning the
cable with the handle the camera head will rotate with the cable.
Some underwater fishing cameras have the ability drop cameras
with as much as 1000 feet of cable. Beyond 500 feet you have to
add special video amplifiers which add cost to the system.
A submersible, waterproof video camera will mount to any
standard camera tripod and work just as well above the water for
surveillance, sport activities, wild life viewing, swimming
pools, and even for security around homes and businesses.
