I have both all though I don't believe the camera works anymore and I agree with everybody else. The camera was neat on a slow day to see what is going on down there but as far as helping me catch fish, I will never go without a flasher. I cant remember the last time I took the camera with me though to ice fish.

About the best use I have ever seen for an underwater Camera is I watched one guy on the Chicago River attach a chumming device to a camera and dropped it down. Water was really clear since this was close to Lake Michigan and I had a blast watching all the different fish come up on the chum and the different ways they went about attacking it.
