Episode18: Getting cold and going deeper

Episode 18 marks a way forward (I think) into how I film and edit the refreshed vlog format.For quite some time for wanted to step away from the conventional type of vlog, as I felt that they all look the same. Many fishing blogs out there are generally based on the same type, the guy fishes,talks a lot , scenes of fighting fish mixed with heavy metal or pumping music, don’t give me wrong , I think it works, sometimes, but it gets very repetitive and fast.

So I wanted to give the viewers a more immersive and relaxing  experience, no talks, no slow motions shots, no pumping music. Just me, nature the fishing, as a days fishing should be. 

The new wireless microphone  has improved sound a lot for me , and I thrive in learning new techniques to Improve on the Vlogs. 

But I know how important it is to also transmit to the viewers tips , and how I fished on the day. This is why I cut the vlogs in two parts now, one the more immersive ,cinematic feel and the second one where I sit down and give you a one on one talk on the day. 

Hope you guys enjoy that new style, it surely is more fun and interesting for me to make even if it is a lot more works, filming and editing. Memberships earning will go this year towards the  music first , as it’s hard to source copyrighted music that is good. So again thank you for the support and the members!!!

My float tube set up.

 I am glad to start spending more time on my Youtube channel, and i start to see a great engagement  from the viewers. This video was asked by a few subscribers and I'm was more than happy to film it: how does my float tube look like, how did i customized it to my needs.

Thank you and keep safe.....and go fishing and enjoy the outdoors if you can!

The Tailgate Reviews: The Yeti Sidekick

 We all know how important it is to keep precious equipment safe on the water, i could just be your car keys and your phone, but for me expending the Youtube channel i see myself carrying more and more expensive filming equipment.

 

I have tried many waterproof pouches over the years, but all lacked the ease of access. Sometimes you just need to check your phone quickly or grab a spare battery, and more than often we don't really bother closing the pouch properly( i know i'm guilty of that...) 

The sidekick also doubles as a great hip bag.

 

But i came across the Yeti sidekick and i must say its a fantastic product. Yes like all Yeti products it does not come cheap (59.99€)but like all Yeti gear, you know it's high quality and you will keep it for a very long time.

This is why i decided to make a quick video as i think it can benefit other anglers. More gear videos are on the way for you guys!
