The Yolotek Powerstick in my opinion is one of the coolest most innovative ideas for your bass fishing videos. If you pair it with a voice activated Go Pro it can help you catch the next viral video.
Without the Yolotek Power Stick I would not have captured a video that has done over 15 million views on facebook and Instagram combined.
Let Me Tell You the Story
It was March and the water temp. was 52 degrees still. I started to get on a pattern in the backs of pockets with a spinner bait. I was not catching a lot of fish but I was catching nice largemouth. Lake Lanier is primarily dominated by spotted bass. So catching these Largemouth was quite the treat. So before I dove in as you have seen in the video above, I swung a bass in the boat that was over 3 lbs. That paired with throwing in the sticks and weeds weakened my line I believe. So Ironically I had just gotten my new voice activated go pro and the Yolotek Powerstick before this fishing excursion.
So the bite happens and I say, “Go Pro Start Recording” and keep reeling. Like an Idiot I try to swing this bass in the boat and the line snaps. I look down and see my spinner bait and the bass just rest on the water for a split second. So I rushed down throw my rod to the side and went all in (literally). Grabbed the bass in the mouth and pinned into my face. I HAD HIM!!! All I could think about as my head was pounding from the cold is I hope that little red light on my GoPro is blinking because nobody will ever believe this. As I got up and looked at the camera with the sun beating down on me I saw that red light blinking and began talking to the camera and getting hyped up that I just caught that on camera.
Why I Credit YOLOtek
Beyond a shadow of a doubt I would not have gotten this shot without the YOLOtek Powerstick. By this time of the day my GoPro would have already been dead. Yolotek’s product plugs into your boats navigation light port. Then you plug the USB chord from the Yolotek to your camera. My camera stays running all day. Make sure you have a great memory card and you will have the storage to go all day. Plus the constant charge you get from your bait will keep you going all day.
Without the Yolotek Power Stick I would not have captured the whole series of events. I love that it plugs into the Light port in the back of the boat. That angle captured all of the events that took place because of the wider angle. I have gotten to know the owner Christian and you will not meet a nicer guy who truly cares about his product and the quality. They are innovative and always coming out with new products to enhance what you can do. If you are worried about safety and losing your $400 camera and the YOLOtek well they got you covered. They have all the different threads that you could possibly need for your boat.
Kayak Anglers Get Love Also!!
Don’t worry Kayak anglers YOLOtek has you covered also. They have different size mounts to capture your footage. You may be asking what about my battery life??? Well they have you covered. Also if you want a battery source then they have that too! These guys have everything you need and then some.
I am so passionate about this product because I love to record my fishing excursions. I also do not like to stop fishing to change out batteries. This product saves me so much time on the water. Once you buy one and get it in your hands you can tell you have a quality product. Here is a little bit more on how the product actually works. It converts 12volt from the navlight port to 5volt USB, so you can record on GoPro ALL-DAY LONG! It also makes very little impact on your cranking battery, so no fear of that battery dying either. Secure up to 70MPH, so you can capture great video flying down the lake. It’s like having a “cameraman” on your boat. Don’t miss the shot, get PowerStick-53″ Gen2!
5 Reasons to BUY!!! Ok maybe 6…
1. The owner is a class act. I love supporting good people that stand behind their product.
2. The product is made of aircraft aluminum. It is sturdy and has stayed in place in extreme conditions.
3. Your GoPro will literally be on all day (as long as you have a good memory card).
4. You are not going to have to tell Fish Stories anymore. You are going to have proof.
5. You can adjust the height or lower it to keep it our of the way. You can capture any angle and turn any which way to capture all your great fish catches.
6. BONUS: The Pro’s are using them and love them. I mean if Kevin Van Dam says it is a good product than I believe him!!
In my humble opinion you cannot put a price on capturing these fishing memories. Most of us anglers fish with our friends, family and kids. My son has not caught his first bass yet but I know when that time comes that YOLOtek will be a part of that moment and help to capture it.
