Interesting. How do you avoid load coming onto P3? Or you are using P3 just to drop the hook to deep waters?
hes not dropping the bait ,he's using it like an outrigger clip.You can see the tuna take the bait and release the the line from the drone line.
It actually looks like he has a loose line between the landing gear.a long line off of that(15-20-30' ??),and the bait line hooked to the long line with a rubberband.(I'll be giving it a try)
Thats great if your on the school as he was,but where there's fish there's birds and the birds would also be going for the bait while inflight.
As far as fish being spooked of by birds,,,that might be the case with freshwater but certainly not salt water.
I do know the P3P attracts seagulls, (I'm assuming they think its another seagull and come to investigate if theres any food around?.)
