Now that is cool. Very impressed with how well you can see the sand bar. Would be great for fishing the surf.
Dance naked my friends, life is short.

Great oblique perspective, but no way that was taken today (Sunday March 29).
Winds were east @ 15-20!

I follow micdesigns Facebook page and wondered how he go the aerial shots. I thought the same thing about using one for a pompano scouting tool.

I see a burgeoning market for an enterprising entrepreneur! "For a single PENNY per yard, we'll drop your bait WAY out there where the really BIG FISH congregate!" One of the disclaimers, of course, would have to include that neither the fisherman nor the operator is responsible for a pelican that swoops in and takes the bait and/or the drone!

Drones are cool my neighbor flys everything and the local news channel put him on tv flying drone in neighborhood.Next thing he gets calls from Officals that he is not allowed to fly them within 5 miles from airport.He has a bunch of guys flying everything at a open field and they drove the distance it was 5.1 miles from airport.So now he ok to fly there.
Yes I have to talk to him about dropping baits,now that would be cool.He told me I could Pratice the controller on my tv set before going live in the field.

This Thanksgiving, I'm thankful for an abundant fishery and a magnificent pier, from which to access that fishery. I'm thankful for the morning view of the sunrise and what a spectacular view it is...
Happy Thanksgiving!
