Hey Everybody. I was just wondering what you guys are using to film your fishing outings? Is it just your ordinary handheld video camera or a GoPro / Contour style helmet cam? I personally have a Contour helmet cam, but have not been able to get out and use it to film any of my fishing yet (hopefully soon). If any of you have fishing video I would love to see it ! (I know most of you probably do)

Thank you very much

Hey .. I use a Fujifilm XP50 HD water proof camera , I just ordered a chest mount holder for it , so in future I don't have to hold it .
Takes awesome video and under water video , dual purpose without the GoPro price . Camera is about 170.00 and holder 30.00 on line .
When I have more time I'll post some vids eventually . I even made a retractable pole for it to shoot under water with a different perspective .

For my videos I use a Canon HD Vixia HFR100. Not waterproof so only tripod videos. Camera is a cheap $40 SONY Cybershot. I would like to get a Hero GoPro. MAybe on my next visit to the USA or when prices drop.
