Love it.  Have to try using a soft hackle!

I would like to see using the drone more like a planer board and release the line once the fish hits then you fight the fish on rod and reel. I know saltwater guys just use them to drop baits into a school of fish well off the shoreline. Haven't looked into using drones to drop baits and whether they would be allowed to drop a bait in a tailwater where you cannot get in with a boat.

Marion!

Marion had that same "You are a dumbarse" look that my wife would have.

Pretty awesome stuff. Wonder if a drone could handle a 15lb Brown?!

Speaking of Phil's drone video, does anyone know what the depth is where Phil was headed toward (from Narrows to Lookout)?  I have found resources on here with maps, one says 5-9 ft and another says 9-12 ft.

Sorry I didn't get back to you...  there are holes up to 10 feet, may be more, in that stretch.  But it varies widely, even in the channel or along the bluff.

There’s a dogleg in the narrows on a half unit that you have to stay river left going upstream.

Thanks.  Lots of big boulders down there in some of the deep water if I recall.  That's a cool stretch of the river, seems like lots of structure and deep water.
