Thats basically it. Cast it out. If not where you want you use a joystick to tell it to move. Propelled by small fans in the water powered my cellular power. I want to be green of course.
Years ago I build an auto hook bobber. But I'd prefer not to have to recast all the time, Fighting currents and
wind. So a bobbler that I can control. Advanced bobbler would not have a joy stick but an optical locator. You just look to where you want it and it goes to that position.

Up to 2lb fish. Kinda does what you're looking for. [Sometimer, Feb 27 2008]

"powered my cellular power"
WTF? |
|
| |
Also, you spelled "bobber" three different ways. |
|
| |
No, sorry; not a clue. Anyone? Anyone? |
|

I think a "bobber", "boober" or "bobbler"
is what fishingmen refer to as a "float" -
the thing that floats (hence, I suppose,
the name) above your hook, and bobs
up and down when a fish bites. |
|
| |
Mett is apparently proposing a dirigible
float, guided by remote control and
powered by some sort of magic, so that
you can move your hook without having
to recast. |

Actually, I think this is a brilliant idea.
Its logical extension is to fish using a
remote-controlled model fishing boat,
with replica fisherman casting their
lines over the side. Remote control
fishing! Brilliant! In fact, I shall hie me
to the "add" link and post this very idea

Perhaps if this was in the category of sport: [fishing]? |
|
| |
I thought part of the enjoyment of fishing was the recasting, no? |
|
| |
How about electrically reanimated bait? I've seen RC cochroaches. |
|
| |
"Full control of your boober" - I believe I have that already, thank you very much. |
|
| |
But I am thinking that the sound of the propellers on this thing is going to give the game away to the fish. |
|
| |
Micro bobber is practical...look at the tiny RC flying helicopters....You know what...I'm going to go to work in my shop on this one tonight...Thanks Mett...this is one helluva idea. |
