Using the Ballast Weights and Stabilizing Fin
When Aqua-Vu’ing while ice fishing, or other stationary situations, such as fishing from
docks, piers or anchored boats, additional weights are usually not necessary to reach
desired depths.
When Ice Fishing
Ballast weights and stabilizing fin are often removed for ice fishing and other vertical
applications. Stabilizing fin, though, is often used by ice anglers for vertical, or “down”
viewing.
When Open Water Fishing
Most open-water viewing, however, is done while drifting or slow-trolling, or while
dealing with stream current. In these moving situations, the camera is best controlled
(held down to lessen “cable drag,” and kept forward-oriented) by attaching both the
ballast weights and stabilizing fin (included) to the camera.
Attaching Ballast Weights.
Line up holes in ballast weights with the predrilled holes in
forward fin (on underside of your Fish-Cam camera). Bolt the weights to camera.
Attaching Stabilizing Fin
. Slide plastic stabilizing fin onto tail of camera. Line up
predrilled holes in fins with predrilled holes in stabilizing fin. Bolt the stabilizing fin to the
camera using the included hardware.
Down-Viewing
Simply insert the cable into the rear
slot on the stabilizing fin; this causes the
camera lens to point down, or toward
bottom.
Insert cable into slot
in stabilizing fin.
