Vodkaman Posted January 2, 2016 Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 Batteries and motors are getting stronger every year. So one day it will happen. Safety and stability are still issues. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayburnGuy Posted January 2, 2016 Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 As far as fishing while standing on top of a drone I'm not sure setting the hook would be something to look forward to. It could quickly morph from a drone to an advertisement for the latest slice and dice kitchen gadget. Ben 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt - NC Posted January 4, 2016 Report Share Posted January 4, 2016 Sure often with a gimbal on your drone you get that wavy "jello" affect while recording from a drone platform it was really evident at around 17 seconds in your test video. ND filters help correct this, there are other factors that may be in play but this often can reduce or eliminate the issue. High frame rates will also cause this as well. side by side example: https://youtu.be/HYpuScaSc80 this is just a reference video to show the effect of "jello" as you can see you may be able to correct in post but it is much better to eliminate before you even get to post and not have an artificial look to your videos. Thanks! I'll take a look when I have a few free minutes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishon-son Posted January 4, 2016 Report Share Posted January 4, 2016 Wow....haven't heard that one before. There are TONS of carp here in our river. Almost kinda freaky when I see those dudes swim by the boat. Talkin' 30 plus pounds. I've always been told that carp have too many bones to eat? How does your friend get around that? sorry I didn't get back sooner....he just cleans them and soaks them over night then 1st thing in the morning he puts them on the rack..kind of like salmon cuts big hunks and smokes also dose suckers theres a big run in northern Michigan every year. and hes in on that...those are good to..but the piece I take is less then a spoon size...im not a fish eater at all and just to keep him happy I guess...he gets hundreds of suckers...

BLT Posted January 8, 2016 Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 Don't have time for it anymore, but I used to do model train layouts. I did N scale size. Loved the detail I could get. I just love trains. Doing layouts, looking at old pics, finding a place to go to ride the old ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonepile Posted July 2, 2018 Report Share Posted July 2, 2018 I used to draw, but that really turned into photography years and years ago. 4-wheeling, i'm always out off-roading, and quading too. and hunting is right at the top of the list. just being outdoors in general. oh, and drinking beer of course.

DGagner Posted February 20, 2020 Report Share Posted February 20, 2020 My interests evolve, carry through, wane, then I'm on to another. Sometimes they last a few months sometimes years. I was a science teacher for 30+ years. The interest developed following NASA's push for the moon. I did amateur astronomy for awhile. I am a graduate of the Maine school of Guitar making... i made a bunch and it help put myself through college with it. I also play a bit... I've painted a bit... portraits mostly. I've done a ton of woodworking, furniture and such...I've got a nice shop. I've built a couple of houses...everything except the foundation. I've made a couple of boats, and a couple of campers. Lately.. I make lures.... for awhile anyway. Oh... I fish too. To name a few. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hillbilly voodoo Posted February 20, 2020 Report Share Posted February 20, 2020 Well theses days I hunt whatever, with any weapon legal, and whenever I can. Outside of that it’s family stuff and fishing Before the days of kids I was way more fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Epp Posted July 23, 2020 Report Share Posted July 23, 2020 Great stuff; some of you are way skilled! It's always cool to see what someone can do when they've taken time to get good at their craft! I suppose woodworking and gardening are my current hobbies. I spend a lot of time making and testing lures. I've caught about 65 largemouth this month, mostly while fishing with my two oldest sons (5 and 3).

Rogers954 Posted January 27, 2021 Report Share Posted January 27, 2021 Well since I’m brand new here it’s probably obvious that i am trying to add lure making to my list of hobbies. Over the past year i have been slowly adding tools to be able to fully make my own baits (primarily wanting to make my own swimbaits) picked up a very lightly used HD belt sander, bandsaw and drill press a while back. Added a set of flexcut knives recently and the wife got me the only real thing i asked for Christmas which is a brand new shiny iwata eclipse hp-Cs. Lots of little supplies have shown up in the last couple of weeks thanks to amazon and lure parts, really hoping to have my first swimbait done here in a couple of weeks. l bought my first boat about 2 years ago which was a old Lowe hustler pro 1754 aluminum mod v, and since bringing it home i pretty much spent the last two years completely rebuilding it gutted everything and did a full Jon to bass conv3rsion which took me Damn near a year alone so I’d say there for a long time boat building was my only hobby lol. used to be into sport bikes like it was life itself started on a 2000 r6, then came a Honda Cbr 954 (best machine I’ve ever owned) and then the last was a 2006 cbr 1000 (love me some Honda’s) a near fatal accident took my love for bikes away in 2013 and i haven’t ridden since. I don’t think i would ever get back on a sport ride because of my injuries would make it very uncomfortable, but i think one day i may pick up a cruiser since the wife loves to ride And having a rider on a sport isn’t exactly pleasurable. Other then the limited time i get on the water to fish i generally like taking on diy projects. Honestly the only reason i don’t add a lot of hobby’s to the list is simply because of limited funds. I dream of one day having a big shop and adding a lot of general machinery both auto and wood working, I’d love to make my own parts so CNc And 3D printing interest me a lot, and I’ve always wished ever since i started riding bikes that i could weld so if i ever get the funds I’d love a tig setup because to me the ability to weld aluminum is what I’ve always wanted (the best metal imo) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eastman03 Posted February 16, 2021 Report Share Posted February 16, 2021 Old post, but great read! My other hobbies, play volleyball (not quite as good as i used to). I've been hit by a bug, and an appreciation of vintage wood working equipment. Specifically pre-WW2 era. Just a certain quality and "weight" to these amazing old machines. I love the Beaver equipment made in Canada. Hope to have a huge collection someday. Along those lines as well, I've fallen in love with artifact hunting. I have had the opportunity to do so for years, but never cared to much. But these days, I love nothing more than walking the banks of the mighty Winnipeg river and looking for arrowheads, or any such artifact. I've found a few amazing things. As I get older, I seem to have more of a connection with the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dock Shuey Posted November 14, 2021 Report Share Posted November 14, 2021 I've built a lot of different things over the years. Mostly guitars and more recently it's been furniture like entry tables. I've picked up welding over the last couple years. Very novice, but I do a good enough job to make leg sets for tables. I built a boat when the covid thing started and sold it after its maiden voyage. And I'm also into jiu jitsu, which I like to describe as the art of folding clothes... While people are still wearing them. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arne Posted October 11, 2022 Report Share Posted October 11, 2022 Late to this party, but havn't been on board for long. Like making and using my lures. Been using a lot lately, but the season is rapidly running out. Used to love ice fishing, but cold and slick surfaces kinda take the fun out of it anymore. Do a bit of hunting, used to do a lot. Old age catchin up. LOL. Been making wine since 2009. Had a pie cherry tree that went ballistic, Kathy got all the cherries she wanted for pies, jelly and whatever she wanted to make. Had a lot left over, tried making a batch of wine. It was drinkable but not great. Make a pretty good batch now when the urge hits. Freezer is pretty much full of fruits, guess it is about time to get busy and start making again. Have to start stacking firewood so I can get to painting and making lures this winter. Garden is about done for the year. Raise a fairly big one, dont need as much produce as the kids have left home. 73 years old and still on the volunteer fire dept. Not active like I used to be, but sometimes get to help whoever needs it. Seems like the younger folks dont have the time or inclination to help the town out. Sad to see, but can see the small town fire depts. slowly fading away. Arne. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
