Go Pro Chest Mount

Anyone use the go pro chesty mount while wearing a plug bag??

Not sure if the shoulder strap will get in the way of the camera or just be annoying.

You will get a better shot if you mount it on a tripod or an extra fishing rod behind you....the head strap or chest mount makes the video too "jumpy" due to all the moving you do when fishing! My quality is better when mounted on a stable platform.

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

That is what video editing is for!

Given the diversity of the human species, there is no “normal” human genome sequence. We are all mutants.

You can't edit out all the body turning and herky jerky motion of a cast!

Excuse me but that is why it is called editing, I can cut out anything I want even the "herky jerky motion of a cast"! Cutting 30 min of video to 2-3min of real action someone is interested in watching again, other than you or me.

I had one (just sold it) and never had a problem with the plug bag strap. I got rid of it because I do all my fishing at night now.... go pro has no night vision. I prefer the chesty POV for all my videos though. The FOV is steadier and more focused on the action, which is what really matters :-)
