It's an interesting bait deployment concept...but the bowfin or carp that we target can easily capsize that boat...if not pull it under

The range on the remote is not as far as I can send out a balloon. The boat does have the advantage that you can fit additional actuators for bait drop / release etc.

I have not had a chance to try it but I think this "Standard Balloon Rig" is pretty ingenious. I got a great spot to try it out an a windy day.

This site also has some ingenious technique which seem a little awkward but just may work.

I Have thought about this,
but instead of having a solid line on the boat, To use a clip where the line would pull off the boat once a fish hits...
It would be illegal to use this apparatus in ontario as the rule is that a fish must be brought in by rod and reel.
But if there was a rigging clip on the boat where you could troll around with the power boat and when a fish hits it releases,
I think this could work for a fun day of fishing.

The cheapest way is to mount a clothes line clip to the RC boat and then clip your line to it. I haven't tried it but that's the route I'd go. I just don't wanna damage my boat with a screw hole....lol.

Carp? I was planning on using to troll for walleyes. I'd never risk my boats for a carp........lol. It's not like you need to cast your dough ball or corn ball very far for them anyways. Atleast for walleyes you could troll a crank this way...lol. The main concern would be setting the hook when you got the contoller in your hand.......lol.
