Now I've seen it all, from RC boats and drones that drag your lure out to where you want it ... now here's the cross between a potato gun and a surf rod. Have at it folks! Fire in the hole ... BOOM!

this has beeen going on for awhile. you also buy bait launchers that are like slingshots that go on your rod. Bill dance was using one a long time ago fishing near a dam. you could only get so close to it so they were launching lures up to the spillway.
 
When I lived in Key West I saw a fella that used a kite for the same purpose. He used a cloths pin to attach his line to it. Seemed to work ok.
 
Next up after the Tracker III rebuild will be re-purposing my trusty old potato cannon. Pure redneck genius.
 
saw this a couple years ago.... I wonder if there's a law against these in certain areas. I have a potato gun, and I know the local authorities frown on them. That being said....... I want one.
