Being a camera gear geek, I was delighted to interview Chris Niccolls\\xa0 (interview starts at 47:16) of\\xa0DP Review TV. (If you are also a camera geek, you probably read DP Review regularly.)\\xa0Chis is a photography teacher as well as a video star, has worked in camera shops, and currently works in a fly shop in Calgary.\\xa0In the interview, he gives some fantastic tips on how to take better fish and fishing pictures in both the video and still formats.\\xa0He also suggests some brands and models of phones, cameras, and drones that he feels are best suited for fishing photography.\\xa0 I know I learned a whole mess of new tricks for taking better fishing pictures, and I am sure you will, too.
