Port Clinton area???

Bob,
Don't know for sure, but you may have some luck at that Dive Shop on Lakeshore Drive. It's on the north side, not too far from Riverside electronics. Let us know if you have any luck...I'd be interested in using one too.

I'll try to check. I checked Riverside, they don't carry any. Someone said Hi Way bait, but I wanted to ask them what brand Hi Way carries

Can't help you find a rental camera, but I can give you some info on using one since I used one there last week. I dropped the camera over on some of the reefs and I saw a lot of walleyes and a few smallmouth. This was on Toussant and Flat Rock. The water clarity was really good and I suppose I could see about 12-15 feet in front of the camera. I saw as many as four walleyes on the screen at once, but the other two guys in the boat who were jigging never had a bite. The fish were on the move all the time, not spooked, but slowly moving, which I suspect is largely because of the boat's presence in 8 feet of clear water. I've used this camera a lot on clear water now, and I've learned that the presence of a boat doesn't necessarily spook them, but they don't seem to bite when there's a boat above them. I hope you find one, you'll enjoy it.

Bob,
I'm the one that mentioned Hi Way Bait. I'm not sure if it was an Aqua Vu or not. I was more interested in the deep Little Rippers at the time.
