{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: North Branch Potomac (Wild Rainbows)

Good god I haven't fished there in so long! Yea, I remember you could get some of the big ones on hopper-dropper type rigs on floats when I went but it was always a chancy thing and you really only had one or two good shots at one.On Tuesday, October 29, 2024 at 1:50:24 PM UTC-4 jhaner...@gmail.com wrote:On Tuesday, October 29, 2024 at 1:46:54 PM UTC-4 jhaner...@gmail.com wrote:Over the past 4 years I have tried to get out and...

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Drone for the Everglades...?

The DJI drone family always had good quality - you can probably find a reasonably priced previous generation for sale.Your biggest barrier to use will be the software, since most now have the no-fly-zones GPS programmed. I think the DJIs are all like that. Now assuming you beat that, you can probably get away with using it in Biscayne National Park. I've never seen NPS anywhere around there, and FWC is more interested in controlling...

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Drone for the Everglades...?

I should have thought about the Park rules, so this trip is out for drone footage - thanks for the quick feedback.How about other places with more relaxed rules? anyone shot any good footage or have a recommendation for a drone that would work?On Sunday, November 10, 2024 at 10:09:26 AM UTC-5 Jeffrey Silvan wrote:Drones aren't allowed in any national park without written permission, which NPS will not give...

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Drone for the Everglades...?

Drones aren't allowed in any national park without written permission, which NPS will not give to individuals. I fish Everglades National Park all the time, and they actually enforce this heavily there. Most drones' software also won't allow a takeoff in national park zones due to these regulations, either. Last, even if you want to risk it, check with your guide whether he'll even look the other way while...

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Drone for the Everglades...?

May, I suggest checking the national park rules if you plan to be within the boundaries of Everglades National Park?Daniel -- http://www.tpfr.org --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders" group.

{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Drone for the Everglades...?

I'm going down to Flamingo to fish for tarpon, snook and redfish early december (guided).I'm looking for an inexpensive drone that can go up 50 feet, video the landing of some of the fish and then come right back down without a lot of driving. (waterproof/floating likely an asset as well). my fishing buddy and I are typically trading off, so one of could launch the drone at hookup.Has anyone done this? I've seen the...
