Strike Cam

[BassTracker]

I have a strike cam that hooks up to the tv in my tinnie, its been lying around for a while. But seeing as the tinnie hasnt been getting much use and a few mates have wanted to use the cam I thought Id come up with a more portable solution. Thought someone might find it interesting.

Monitor cost $100 but its gets hi def tv as well as being a monitor, also has usb and card input, strikecam with about 50 meters of cable is close to $200 case was $30 from bunnings prob another $30 or $40 in bits and the rubber is just camp site flooring

camera is pretty good, you can use it on a pole to check the bottom of your boat or have a look around, its wieghted as well so you can hang it right off the back and drop it down to whatever depth you want to look at, you can connect your line quick release style (on the downrigger) and watch whats checking your bait out.

ks mate, you'll have to come for a run and have a look

[woody1]

Nice idea! I'd love to be able to see whats going on with my lines, also good for checking your retrieve with plastics, never quite know what it looks like. Have you got anything setup to make it record? would be sweet to get some video of fish hitting your baits

[BassTracker]

Yeah I'm working on it, you can plug a camcorder in between the cam and monitor but I'm trying to work out a quicker way, it's amazing to watch big fish like threaded come and have a look at a bait 4 or 5 times

[woody1]

do you have a laptop? should be able to hook something up pretty easy with a cheap video capture card off ebay

[BassTracker]

Thanks woody ill look into it
