Boat Feeding

[Carpy]

THE IN THING NOW IS THE REMOTE CONTROLLED BOATS
THAT CAN DROP YOU BAIT ON THE HOT POINT. EVEN TAKE YOU BAIT TO THEM PLACES YOU CANT NORMALLY FISH. DO YOU THINK THEY ARE GOOD OR BAD. WILL THEY BE ALLOWED ON THE LODGE POOL. THEY ARN'T CHEAP START AT AROUND 200 POUND. COME ON GIVE ME YOUR VIEWS.

No, I don't think bait boats should not be allowed on the water because it take the fishing skill out like casting in the same spot all the time, it is easy to do.

If you put a bait boat on the water with the hookbait / hooklenght and drop the bait very tight against the liliy pad or the bush which stick out on the old island it be more often losing the tackle in the pads/bushes.

Again alots a anglers who I do know can't even used one because either the aerial is fully up and can't guide the boat back home to the peg were he/she is fishing from.

I agree Andrew boats suck. its fish verse's angler. that is why i love the sport. go out to a venue and set out a plan for the day it its not working i change. Remote controlled boats are not fishing.

I think it also the same thing apply to the Hummingbird Smart Cast. For those who don't know what a smartcast is. Well a smartcast is a mini version of a depth finder. The idea of this gaget is it can be fix on to the main line and cast out with a baited hooklenght and it send ultra sonic sound wave to to the bottom of the bed and back to the smartcast given you a picture graph on a small screen which come with the smartcast

Yes Andrew have a look at the post One for you Norman.

I would never buy a boat its not angling. Would be fun if two of you had them, and the fishing was slow. You could always have a race around the lily pads. ;D

There is a time and place for radio controlled boats and fishing is neither the time or the place!
