Questions

 

Answers

 

How far can I see?

 

Naturally, the clearer the water, the farther you

 

can see. As 

a general rule, in water the camera

 

can see twice as far as 

the human eye — meaning that if you can see 3 feet down 
you will be able to see approximately 6 feet in front of the 
camera.  But this is just a rule of thumb. Water bodies vary 
in water clarity and other characteristics. For anglers 
studying bottom structure, 2 feet of visibility is sufficient 
for underwater viewing, though in very clear water, it is 
possible to see up to 30 feet or more.

 

When do I use the lights?

 

The Aqua-Vu lights in your Aqua-Vu camera are designed 
for use in low-light conditions. Turn

 

the lights on for 

enhanced visibility in low light

 

conditions.

 

Can I splice the camera cable to obtain more length?

 

No. Attempting to splice in additional cable

 

violates the 

waterproof integrity of the camera and cable. This will 
void your warranty.

 

How fast can I troll with my camera?

 

It depends on depth, and also on the length of

 

cable you 

have out, which determines water

 

resistance or “drag.” 

The deeper you go, with

 

more cable out, the more drag 

there will be.

  

That requires slower travel for good 

viewing.  Generally, for optimal viewing, we recommend

 

going less than 2 miles per hour. Remember, the slower 
you go, the more detail you will see. Also,

 

the faster the 

bottom depth changes, the more

 

rapidly you will need to 

manipulate the Aqua-Vu

 

cable.

 

Can I use my Aqua-Vu in saltwater?

 

Yes. All Aqua-Vu cameras are saltwater-rated,

 

constructed 

with stainless steel hardware and

 

materials that are 

resistant to corrosion. We

 

STRONGLY recommend 

rinsing salt water off

 

camera using clean water and a soft 

cloth after

 

every use.

 

Will my unit work in subfreezing conditions?

 

 

Aqua-Vu systems are designed to operate at

 

temperatures 

ranging from -10F (-23C) to 120F (-84C) degrees. Expect 
your battery life to decrease in cold

 

conditions.
