I just pictured myself on a busy Essex circuit water with drones buzzing around spying fish, dropping payloads of bait and rigs out with bloke hauling with their chests out acting like hero's; like a lunatics asylum....lully

Drones have no place in English carp fishing. Completely misses the point. How long before they want to gps tag the A team in a given lake?

Don't worry I'm on to it... been on the phone to Korda this morning and top of everyone's Christmas list this year is ...

The Korda exocet surface to air drone missile. Guaranteed to take out any unwanted arial intruder in your swim. Comes in camouflage or carpy black in sizes small, medium, large and 'I'll take your feckin bivvy out too mate' xxl

If they had GPS tracking on fish, and drones in the air to show them. And they didnt let the angler see or use any of the data, they had to track down the fish using traditional watercraft and try catch them.

Thats a tv show i would watch.

Take it from me Mal – 2.2 is effective at removing them from your airspace

Almost as much fun as planting a mine field of powerful Rem's dangling from Snags, the same snags bait boat owners say “I never take my rigs out, and would never dream of placing them under those trees, as that's the only sanctuary the fish have”

Highly amusing when they loose all signal from such areas

I **** you not...on good authority, a well known German bait boat maker is producing software to link the bait boat with the drone when sending the bait boat out to a spot.....drone flying above it with the imagery sent back to the a tablet on the bank.

Coming to a lake near you very soon...

The germans have been trying to take any aspect of fun out of carp fishing for years.

Have reworded the beginning of my post 97. Hadn't done a good job on that. Is that what you disagreed with Tee Cee?

Can't make the connection between emergency rescue services use of drones to save life which is marvellous, along with all other tech used for the same and other appropriate purposes.
I cannot agree to their totally inappropriate use in carp angling. It disrespects the art of angling and totally disrespects the fish.

Not sure he knows what he disagrees with tbh. This is the guy that gets a buzz from "rules that massively handicap the angler" yet uses a bait boat.

End of the day drones are cheating. We all know it. Some ignore it. It's fair play, each to their own and all that. As long as they don't interfere with anglers I can't see problem. Most half decent waters ban them anyway.
