GoPro! - atvaholic - 03-23-2014 I just picked up a gopro hero 3+ and WOW! Picture/video quality is amazing. With the wide screen there will be some sweet scenes! Even underwater. Thinking of mounting it on the bow of my assault XX facing me, but wondering if others have used it creatively and how?

I love the fish eye lens in a lot of shots. The remote is killer!

I like the GoPro look. Opinions are like you-know-what. [signature] Re: [atvaholic] GoPro! - kandersonSLC - 03-23-2014 I think GoPro is excellent at capturing the entirety of an outdoor scene. Basically as broad a panorama as you see with your eyes. If mounted on front of your Assault, you would get you, the 'toon, the fish, the lake, and the mountains all in one photo. For example, it would be hard to get the entire horseshoe of the Colorado with a standard consumer camera but the GoPro creates a photo that is consistent with my memory of the scene.

Also, the Scotty camera mount I posted on another thread works for regular cameras as well as GoPro.

[/quote] This is exactly what I am after! I mean if i'm fishing a lake with limited scenery I wouldnt use the wide mode. But there are a few remote rivers up north where the scenery is breathtaking, especially in the fall. And I would certainly use wide mode for that. FlyGodess: Its the Hero 3+ Black with remote. Crazy Pricey, but I think the memories will be worth it. I would buy the scotty mount, but after conversing with you guys i'm having a torrid affair with PVC....its redneck but I love it! [signature] Re: [atvaholic] GoPro! - flygoddess - 03-24-2014 Right ON! Look forward to what you come up with. As for the Camera. I mounted mine (on PVC) so it is about 2' long. It has the Scotty camera mount and the Scotty boat mount, but PVC in the middle. I put it behind my left shoulder as I cast right handed. Film everything I am looking at and even an occasional fish landing[] [signature] Re: [flygoddess] GoPro! - Paulpro - 03-24-2014 no[frown] but my fishing camera does have a remote control which is pretty cool actually [cool] [signature] Re: [mojorizing] GoPro! - Paulpro - 03-24-2014 Some head-cam pics with my gopro which isn't actually a gopro haha [inline canal111.jpg][inline "canal1 (12).JPG"][inline "canal1 (11).JPG"] [signature] Re: [Paulpro] GoPro! - flygoddess - 03-24-2014 Samsung Galaxy....Not as pretty as yours but getting there.
