I just bought the Fish TV 7" mainly for ice fishing but I have a few open water spots I want to play around with until then.

I bought mine from BPS but be careful because the first one I bought the connection between the camera and monitor was crap. I had to physically hold pressure on it in order to see anything on the monitor. I ended up bringing it back to exchange it. If you buy one, use their batteries in the store to test it first, it might end up saving you a trip for an exchange.

I hope this isn't a sign of things to come for the winter!

wouldnt mind getting one either but not sure who,s is best.I seen one that has 4 cameras at the end and a split screen so you could put it between 2 holes and seeboth at the same time plus whats coming and going.Pretty cool if it works.

crap, talking about winter allready

If you are looking for just your basic cam. Not looking to record or have a 360 view. the fish TV will do you just fine. I have one and never had a problem. I found it hard to keep the cam pointed at my bait at times. But fixed that prob with a 15 foot telescoping pole.

Yeah,

That on is on sale again at Cabela's. I have a buddy who just ordered one for himself. Looks like it's selling for $149.99. I believe it's the 7" with the SONY screen. Looks pretty slick.
