Fishing with a Drone



quadcopters with cameras

If you are an avid fisherman and live in Australia, you can now use a drone to get an aerial view of the waters around your property. A drone can have many features such as an angle adjustable camera and GPS positioning system. You can also buy fishing lines that you can use for fishing, which are designed to be extremely stable and secure. One such example is the SKY RIGGER drone.

SKY RIGGER drone fishing line

The SKY RIGGER flexible fishing line system allows you to fish from the sky with minimum effort. Two rotating leg clamps allow the system to be attached to a variety of drone models. The release mechanism has a bayonet style connection and a camlock arm to quickly open the line clamps. Unlike other drones, the Sky RIGGER requires no batteries and can accommodate all fishing techniques safely.

The SKY RIGGER comes with an automatic release mechanism that allows you to let go of the line when a fish catches your fly. The line can be manually released by either your rod or hand. This feature is included on all models. It is strongly recommended that you first purchase a Phantom 3 before you purchase the new SKY RIGGER. A few pros and cons of the new line system:

It is equipped with a mechanical payload transfer

A good drone's mechanical payload release is one of its most important characteristics. Many of them make it possible for the anglers easy to release the fishing lines. Some models don't have a release mechanism. To remove the drone from the fishing line, the user must "yank” the line. This can be a tedious process, especially for those who don't feel comfortable using their hands to release it.

The payload release mechanism is another important feature. The drone should have the ability to release its payload when it strikes a fish. This method is not easy to use. You can't just pull the fish up and let it go. Several people have reported good results with the DJI Phantom drone. But, it is still not as advanced as other fishing drones.


It is equipped with a GPS positioning system

Rippton is a joint venture of Australia and Holland that specializes exclusively in technology-oriented fishing gear. Its mission is to increase angler success rates through the development of products that enhance fishing experience. Rippton's Mobula drone is equipped with a GPS positioning device and remote release. The Mobula is able to hold bait on the surface, resist kite clips and is environmentally friendly.

It's lightweight, weighing just 3 pounds, and can fly for up to 18 minutes. It is also equipped with a high-tech GPS system that allows it to control it from up to 2,000 yards away. It is capable of flying at 1000 meters (or half a kilometer) range and has intelligent flight modes. Its point of interest feature lets it take high-quality images of its surroundings. The camera's high resolution allows for great views of fish.

It comes with a failsafe feature

Aerokontiki has an emergency feature that allows it to monitor the battery level and release the fishing line if necessary. In case of battery failure, it will land back on dry ground to continue its mission. It operates with industrial-grade flightcontrollers, and it can work anywhere without requiring calibration. You can use this drone even in very difficult water conditions.
