Hi Tyler! I follow you and enjoy your content man. I use a DJI Pocket 3, and run it off an external battery. It's mounted on a yakattack GoPro mount using a quick connect mount. The P3 is small but versatile and has great image quality for its size. Hope that helps!

I do fish the Megabass SV-3s a lot as well. I like the double willow versions but yes, I think the Deps B-Custom is the better spinnerbait. It falls horizontally, swims very straight, and has a better hook. I like the vibration better as well but the SV's are in my top 3 spinnerbaits for sure. Thanks for watching!
