So, I have been thinking about a way to deliver my eel out a little further than I can cast when shore fishing, especially in the canal.
I have tried searching for a method and remember several years ago that there was a contraption of a radio controlled boat that would bring your bait out, you push a release button, then the thing automatically comes back to you. ALl I can seem to find are "bait boats" designed for carp fishing that are essentially floating bird feeders.
It would be sweet to finally be able to get my eel out to jigging distance to drift it right down the middle of the chute.
Any advice???
Would it still be considered "shore" fish or would it now be a "boat " fish???
