Does it work with wood too? For $1200 it should hum too

Nebe 06-15-2006 06:54 PM

you would probably have to freeze your needlefish into one of those molds..

Me and some buds used to fish like that with a 3 man waterballoon cannon when i was in highschool.. we would cast normally but would chum with the waterballoon thingy..

That could start a whole new sport at :liquify: the canal

cheferson 06-15-2006 07:41 PM

the VS of potato launchers

backbeach 06-15-2006 09:14 PM

Personally, I look forward to some urban angler firing one off with the tip wrapped with 30 ande of 50 powerpro...but thats just me...:bl2:

backbeach 06-15-2006 09:17 PM

I might not be the longest caster on the beach or Canal, but thats too much like giving up for me...no respect for the art of the sport at all there...some people are absolutely shameless....

Slingah 06-15-2006 10:14 PM

wtf:hs: :bl2:

Mugz 06-16-2006 05:58 AM

That is crazy........funny actually.

dickmont 06-16-2006 07:14 AM

I would never spend $1200 on something like that although I would on a VS and a couple of rods to go with it. But you gotta admit it would be kinda a kick to have that thing at a big beach get together. Just not with my $. Crazy:bl2:

Do Cannon Fish Count???

Smellfish 06-16-2006 10:29 AM

What a Tool !!!
 
What happens if your line wraps aroung the rod tip or hangs up on your bail? You end up with your gear being projected 20 yards in the surf. How long before someone ends up with a frozen bait up the poopa ? Seems to dangerous.

Hmmmm... I live up on a hill overlooking the harbor.... Always wanted to catch a fish from my front porch but never lived close enough.... until now! :rocketem:

Free Caribbean Vacation
 
With all the "homeland security" forces runnin' around looking for work, I'm not sure I'd want to get caught with one of those. "Honest officer, it's not a rocket launcher it's fishing gear." Probably get you disappeared to Guantonimo for life...

MrHunters 06-16-2006 02:04 PM

Swimmer 06-16-2006 02:15 PM

Me thinks something might not be legal with this device!!!!:hihi:

Swimmer 06-16-2006 02:15 PM

Different type of potato gun. :hihi:

Old school.
Do a search for the breeches buoy.
At one unit I was stationed they still practice setting up the breeches buoy.

Gimic,at least as far as I'm concerned.

Padre Isle surf guys might find it useful.More convenient than 'yaking your baits out.:doh:

scuppermen 06-20-2006 09:19 AM
