I tried your peg mechanism and modified it. I drilled a hole in the end of each end of the "leg" part of the peg and threaded the line through the holes. I threaded the ends of the lines through a loose cable tie before tying them to the phantom. When you pull on the line, the tension on the peg legs actually opens the peg.
Out of interest, and so I can avoid losing mine, how did you lose your first drone? You said in one of your videos you lost it by being stupid or something.
Cheers Tony. Yeah having good success with this release. I now prefer using it over my previous method with a forward facing hook on the drone. Definitely more productive than casting as you can get past those breakers where the bigger fish hang around :)
Yeah these work as well. They are basically just a fancy version of clothes peg with the added price tag. It's cheaper to buy them from Temu. They are called Down rigger clips and are adjustable tension clips. Used in exactly the same way as the clothes peg.
Nah, just using to get a better distance and drop baits past the breakers. Could also use it to search for fish in shallow, clear water but it's hard to see on a small mobile screen.
@@Fishingreminder the provincial government website says clearwater lake is clear enough to see the bottom at 11m/36.1ft. I'm pretty sure most of the lakes in the area are like that though. I might give this a go.
@@Fishingreminder I like them to have the summer. It just seems cruel to take them at that time. I get them in the fall. Will it be too cold for drones? I don't have a drone yet.
@@thomasolson7447 Shouldn't be too cold for drones, even in winter. If you want to use a drone mainly for spotting fish or scouting out an area you could get a small drone like a DJI Mini.
Hey, the phantom has a reliable range of about 500m. I usually take it out to 400m max. Often only 300m as I find that's enough distance. Depending on the beach of course.
I haven't tested the limit. I usually use two baits, each the size of roughly half a pilchard and mostly a 3 - 4oz sinker. I guess that's about 150 - 200 gram in weight. But you could probably double the weight for this drone and use 5 baits instead of 2 baits. I would try and stay under 500g total weight for the sinker and bait to avoid too much strain on the motors. If you want to fly out one big piece of bait ( as shark bait for example), I would weight it and make sure it's not much more than 500g or give it a test on dry land first.

What a brilliant idea 💡 love it my friend 🎉
Thank you! Cheers!
Very cool Mark and definitely a good idea adding that swivel. On my drop away loop I connect it via a treble swivel and I've never had a tangle
Cheers mate. Yeah, I also use another swivel between main line and the trace. The more the merrier, haha
@@Fishingreminder hard out eh!!!
Very good idea
Thank you! Cheers!

nice, sounds like a great idea!

Fantastic! Good work sir.
Thank you! Cheers!
That's awesome id say there are going to be a few more pegs flying around now!
haha, yeah possibly :)
That’s a brilliant idea mate.. You’re the best!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Great way to do it and beats casting, very cool Mark, thumbs up from New Zealand,, Tony.

Genius
cool!
They sell release clips for fishing with kites.
Yeah these work as well. They are basically just a fancy version of clothes peg with the added price tag. It's cheaper to buy them from Temu. They are called Down rigger clips and are adjustable tension clips. Used in exactly the same way as the clothes peg.
Cool vid and great idea! Question, what Lb braid do you spool your reel with?
Cheers man, I've been using 30lb braid. That's plenty for beach fishing and nice and light weight.
This could be the cure to my boredom
Haha, yeah I bet it will, it's good fun
Ok
How much was your advanced clothes peg? This rig seems a little bit expensive....🤣
haha, nah I "found" it on a clothesline so it was free, lol
Which mechanism do you prefer now you have both? The clothes peg or the chop stick hook where you turn to release it?
Hi Mike, I actually prefer the clothes peg now because I don't have to muck around with the thin safety rubber band anymore.
@@Fishingreminder have you ever needed the safety rubber band though
So you're just using it for a greater distance? You don't have a polarized lens to actively search for fish?
Nah, just using to get a better distance and drop baits past the breakers. Could also use it to search for fish in shallow, clear water but it's hard to see on a small mobile screen.

Awesome, glad it was helpful! 👍
Hi! How many flights do able to do with this drone on 1 battery?
about 3-4 depending on distance and weight of the baits
@@Fishingreminder Thanks!
Hey mate, how far can you safely fly out with the phantom 3?
Hey, the phantom has a reliable range of about 500m. I usually take it out to 400m max. Often only 300m as I find that's enough distance. Depending on the beach of course.
get 1km usually before signal drops out but usually drop a bait at 300m
Just wante dto ask what is the biggest piece of bait that you have used on the drone.with out it giving any issues
I haven't tested the limit. I usually use two baits, each the size of roughly half a pilchard and mostly a 3 - 4oz sinker. I guess that's about 150 - 200 gram in weight. But you could probably double the weight for this drone and use 5 baits instead of 2 baits.

😢 yo ise lo mismo del video y perdí mi dron anda nadando 🏊♂️ con los peces
lamento escuchar eso. ¿Cómo ha ocurrido?
Getting shortage of clothing pegs these days, wondering why….
😂
Which drones are inexpensive that can do this
I think the phantom 3 is still the most inexpensive drone you can find for doing this kinda stuff
With one baterry, how many trip can your sent the bait?
One battery gives you about 3-4 casts at 300-400 meters out. Depending on wind, how much your baits weigh and how old the battery is.
@@Fishingreminder ok tq, i have some question, its it ok use small drone like mini 2 or mini se for fishing?

@@Fishingreminder 애들이랑 같이 다니다보니... 아직 접근성이 어려워 보여서 못 가봤네요. 올해 여름에 가보려고 합니다.
What total weight that u use in this video sinker + bait ?
I'm guessing that the weight of bait and lures is around 150 gram
you can lift about 400g no issues with phantom 3 and we do it all the time out to 600 metres for sharks
@@bushmanphotos ok, with one baterry, how much can sent the bait?
I am from India.
Please send me this drone as a gift with drop mechanism 😊.
What a great idea 😂
