These are both courtesy of Gearbest, and you can find them here: Yoshikawa travel fishing rod:http://goo.gl/bNivhs Yolo Bite Alarm: http://goo.gl/oHLIm4 Other Gearbest fishing products:

I t can film at 2K, 1080p (up to 60FPS), 720p (up to 120fps, slow-mo), has burst mode, time lapse photo and time lapse video mode, as well as car and FPV RC modes. The "4K" mode is not worth discussing, as it's only interpolated 4K, not true 4K. It uses ...
