About the Boompole & Fishpoles range

Choose a pole by its maximum and collapsed lengths, material, weight, section count and locking system. A longer reach helps place a shotgun microphone above or beside a subject without entering the shot, while a shorter collapsed length is easier to transport. Aluminium is generally a practical choice for occasional use, while carbon fibre can reduce fatigue during long takes. Check the stated weight capacity if you use a microphone, shock mount and cable together. Internal XLR cabling keeps the setup tidy, but an external cable is easier to replace or change.

Confirm the mounting thread before buying. Microphone shock mounts and pole studs may use 3/8-inch or 5/8-inch threads, and an adapter may be required when they do not match. Do not confuse a boompole with a camera hot-shoe accessory or a small handgrip. This range includes telescopic microphone poles, compact mini poles, modular carbon fibre designs, internal-cable models and accessories such as pole clips. Compare the extended length with your usual framing, then check the collapsed length against your case or equipment bag.

Boompole & Fishpoles questions

What length boompole do I need for interviews?

For seated interviews and small video setups, a compact pole can be easier to control and carry. Choose a longer model when you need to reach over subjects, work from farther away or keep the microphone outside a wider frame. Check both extended and collapsed measurements before ordering.

Do I need an internal XLR cable in my boompole?

An internal XLR cable keeps the cable inside the pole and can reduce snagging during production. It is not essential if you prefer to route a separate cable externally, need a different cable length or want simpler cable replacement. Confirm the connector type and cable arrangement on the specific product page.

Will any microphone shock mount fit a boompole?

No. Check the thread on the pole and the mount before purchase. Common fittings include 3/8-inch and 5/8-inch connections, and some products include an adapter. Also allow for the combined weight of the microphone, shock mount and cable, not just the microphone alone.
