See how fishing for tuna with a DRONE could be the future for recreational sport

Fishermen Jaiden McLean and Byron Leal hooked a 20kg fish using bait dropped from a drone before reeling it in from the beach

 

 
 
The gadgets have been used to snap pictures and deliver mail, and now they could be responsible for putting dinner on the table.
 
The large longfin tuna who are a target for the fishermen are shown out at sea, but they're no match for the technology of drones.
 

 
Jaiden, who is from Kingscliff in New South Wales, works at and knows the seas.
 
He worked with Byron Leal to use the drone to catch a 20kg fish.
 
The drone dropped a squid bait into a school of tuna off around 350m off Fingal Head and then reeled it in from the beach.
