OPEN WATER APPLICATION
To locate fish, look for treasure or find that perfect spot, simply turn
thecamerapowerONanddroptheMantacameraintothewater.If
you’re drifting with the wind or using a trolling motor with the VS820,
attach the supplied trolling fin to the rear of the Manta Camera for
added stability. The internal weight is enough to keep the camera
down while the fin assists in keeping the Manta camera tracking
straight through the water. If the camera becomes hung up, back
up from the direction you were traveling from and slowly try to back
the camera out of the snag. DO NOT pull directly upward with force
unless all other avenues have been pursued.
