Using kites for Offshore fishing is big here in South Florida, and a friend of mine that is a professional angler approached me about using a drone instead of a kite. Has anybody done this? Basically we think it would work like this:
release a drone with a line on it, taking it up 100 feet with the bait on the other end, line hooked to drone via a quick release outrigger clip. Then bouncing the bait off the surface with the drone. Fish hits, line releases
Opinions welcome. The major benefit is you Can be a lot more precise of where to put the bait versus a kite. On the offshore pro billfish circuit, there is huge money involved.
