I am looking to purchase an underwater camera for ice fishing and looking for suggestions. Has anyone used the Quad 4x4 from aqua vu? (Can get one that was used 1x for $300.) I am also looking at the cabelas advanced angler with a 7 inch screen (about $150). Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

I have the Cabela's advanced angler. It's a great help for seeing and catching fish and how they react. I do not even turn on the vexilar till dark. My buddies call it "cheating" as I outfish them 5-1. Draw backs are trying to get the camera to "sit" on your jig. Sometimes it spins slightly and is not centered on your jig. So you have to play with the cable. Newer models have a remote camera that allow you to control and pan. Towards evening you lose some viewing as the screen darkens. Overall it's a great investment. I paid $99 (on sale) for the 7" one.
