    Drone fishing/drop rig setup

    Forgot to say, 16ft odd surfcaster and you'll be away laughing, the higher the rod, the better. And I got the dropper line kit installed (not sure what brand) but an after market one. Some of the home made one's look cool. An after market one though goes straight through your app so no...

    Drone fishing/drop rig setup

    I find that 3 people (although that's a bit of an overkill for one line, fishing standards) is a good team. One flying/spotting (always on the drone & flying), the other holding and controlling the rod (where you are going to have it, don't try to move once drone is up and flying that is...

    Mate that sux. Sorry to hear. 20 - 25 pound on a 400 - 600m reel will set you right.

    Drone fishing/drop rig setup

    Drop kit works well, I decided to just get one rather than risking some pull to drop rig or something like that. You just swipe the control on the app and - ater bait and sinker!. Just finished off 4 successful wet drops into the mighty Atlantic!!! will post vid shortly, pretty happy about it...

    range extender

    Ah, now I get it. Sorry mate I thought that the drones only flew within cell phone coverage (shows how amateur I am!) which may sound silly but it had me for a while. Seems I must have read & understood it all wrong. That's a good thing though, now it eliminates for me going off on a tangent...

    range extender

    Does cell coverage have anything to do with it? I've been scoping out marine maps and overlaying them with cell coverage maps for drone fishing - I note the big area differences with 2, 3, 4G wouldn't this have a big impact when you're flying in and out of good cell coverage? Excuse the lack...

    Anyone gone fishing with a phantom

    Hey mate, are you saying that people try to fish off the drone itself? sorry I thought it only meant bait dropping?, is there any vids of this?

    Anyone gone fishing with a phantom

    Holy cow....I just realized something - when I am talking about drone fishing I mean dropping your bait out at sea..... It just struck me from some of the comments, do people actually try 'fishing with the drone' ?? really! please tell me I am wrong?? how could a drone pull a fish from the sea...

    drone fishing

    Drone fishing no different to kite or torpedo surely, except your still going to reel in like a normal fisherperson. If they were to liken it to something like poaching or what not that would mean any form of mechanical casting would have to fall into that, such as kites and torpedos too...

    Hi guys, cherry here, first message! - on the handbook I got here it says up to 30km winds? not that I would try that!!! Have had out on some windy days though, probably only blowing 10 - 15kms though, holds well.
