What sort of $ did you invest into and what is the payload?
2K with the SAR device which is basically the release mechanism with a small camera on it so you can see the load on the screen.
Drone range is 1km, load is 1kg

Here's a fun game to play. If you ever see a bulk spool of 10-15lb braid cheap spool up a spare 10k or so spool with it. Where your trout came from drop a team daiwa 95 Minnow 700m out and bring it back in. Haha. Would be hilarious.
