 |
|
I cannot wait to get back to "home" - to the Island. Although I've moved to Houston, my blood runs thick in salty waters.
I just started a new hobby flying quadcopters. Looking forward to bringing this down and capturing coastal fishing!
Hope all my Corpus Christi - Island friends are catching their limits!
Cheers!

It definitely is! It's not as easy as people may think. Takes lots of flight practice.

| If they can lift a decent payload - what a novel way to get bait out past the 3rd bar. |

The wind is going to be the biggest factor with those. How much wind can they handle?

They have started using them at home to take overhead pictures of potholes, flooded timber holes and stuff like that. Rumor is AG&F is going to be using them this year too.
We do not have near as much wind up there as here, but how much can they take? |
