Best GoPro Camera Boom for Kayak Fishing

Thanks to Kayak DIY for the original idea, but the parts has changed. The Scotty bolt is TOO SHORT, so i made a detailed, step by step HOW TO video with updated parts.

In this video, there is a short clip of the boom being used only 1/3 of the way extended. Due to the waves and high winds, I kept it lower than i wanted too.

Sorry for the length of the video, but wanted to show viewers each step of the process.
