kdiaz+FollowThought drone fishing was a gimmick… until I tried itI tried drone fishing once—sent my bait way past the breakers, sat back, and waited. It felt like cheating… but also kind of amazing. Now, states like Hawaii are cracking down hard, with big fines and even jail time for unpermitted drone fishing. Supporters say drones help older anglers and reduce lost tackle. Critics worry about tangled lines, harm to wildlife, and crowding the water. It’s a strange mix of tech, tradition, and law. Part of me loves the possibilities—part of me wonders if we’re crossing a line. Would you ever try fishing with a drone? #fishing #dronefishing #fishinglife #outdoors102Share
