Re: How to get impressive catch pics
You could hire me(I work for Tokyo rigs..ha ha) to take pics for you like the avatar shot I took or buy or make your own selfie stick.
Since you do fish a lot out of your float tube I know you hold your arm out with the camera and take the pics. I always thought that
it could be pretty easy to drop your phone so I decided to just make a selfie stick out of the top of a guitar stand and just attach the
belt-clip holster that came with my Otterbox iPhone case.
I just used electrical tape to fasten the belt-clip holster to the top of my guitar stand . My camera snaps securely right into place and
with the flip of a switch change the camera direction and set the timer and hit the start button.
That is what works for me, but I am pretty sure there are some quality selfie sticks out there. Do not buy a cheap one as phones can drop out of the holder with sometimes the slightest movement if the phone is not locked in securely. Most phones are not cheap(except the one @McFish has) so it is worth getting something that really will secure your camera.
I have been taking pics most of my life and not a professional by any means. I did take pics when I worked in Community Relations at the
Union-Tribune at all of our functions and events the newspaper sponsored during my 28 years there. Unfortunately, I do not get paid for taking pics of bass..ha ha
If you are taking a pic of another fisherman with a fish, just use the common sense of making sure both the fish and fisherman are in the pic...ha ha
Just for laughs....here is my gadget
