Comment on Aqua Vu Fish TV 7 Underwater Viewing System by John

Just got my fish TV 7. Very pleased with the unit. Works great right out of the box. The picture is clear, better than I expected. I read someone attached a peice PVC pipe to it so you can direct it better. I,m going to go one step more and add some extra lights to it.I just tried it in the pond thats frozen over and it worked great. I can,t wait to take it to the river and try it in my favorite 40 ft catfish hole. This unit will be a good tool to have on my boat. For the price,you can,t beat it. I will recommend this unit to all my friends.

It’s true that everyone has his/her own confidence lure. This spinnerbait may not be yours but I’m glad it’s mine.

I used the 3/8 oz. The parrot colored one was the best color, along with white and sexy shad. One weekend on a local lake in mid-September 2011, I caught almost 100 largemouth bass to 4.5 lbs – average weight was about 2-2.5 lbs – on these spinnerbaits. They were schooled up in the main lake, feasting on baby sunnies. I even had a double-header on the spinnerbait! A 3 lber and and 1.5 lber. It was that crazy.

I also had some success with a black Tour Grade spinnerbait with double Colorado blades. Retrieved straight at medium speed, I had some tremendous strikes on it. But the night bites were nowhere near the number during the day. A trailer hook was a must for the night fishing as bass often missed the mark or just bumped it the first time only to come around and hit it a 2nd or 3rd time. Typically they were hooked on the trailer.

Good to hear from you Geoff, I’m glad that you’re having success with this bait. Strike King produces some real winners that are always in the front of our tackle boxes. Unfortunately, this spinnerbait is not one of them for us. But that’s the great thing about fishing, just because a particular lure doesn’t work for one angler doesn’t mean it won’t catch fish for another. Look forward to hearing from you again in the near future.
See ya’ on the water ….

I agree that the skirt gets tangled up sometimes. Every few casts I have to straighten them out.

Otherwise, it’s an awesome bait. I’ve lost track of how many fish I caught with this thing in 2011. They always hit it hard and harder. Largemouth bass, walleye, crabbie and big channel cats all loved smashing it.

Also, I never take off the trailer hook, it’s a must to have!

Can’t wait to use it again for the 2012 season.

How’s it going Raul, our pleasure on the review and I gotta tell you, this is one of the baits that I’ll be throwing a lot starting the first of the year. I believe that it is going to be one of the best for the 2012 season. Stay tuned though, we’ll be posting more on that as the new season progresses.
