Big Brother is watching
Big Brother is watching
To the folks that fish a particular spot along the 401 corridor for carp.
We were out yesterday and while fishing had a drone circle over us for a good 20 mins or so.
Was weird.
This normal for this area now?

Re: Big Brother is watching
Could you tell how big it was? If it's small, it could be someone's recreational drone. The U.S. does routine drone surveillance along the St. Lawrence river, but these are larger aircraft (wingspan of 65ft).
Re: Big Brother is watching
It's the year of the drone. Will be seeing more and more of these as recreational use is becoming very popular.
Re: Big Brother is watching
There is a gentleman in that area who uses one for pictures.
he has a website.
It was a small drone indeed. Neat to see. Even if you feel your privacy is invaded.

No such thing as privacy when you're in public I'm afraid.
Drone tech is very cool, I've considered building one from scratch for myself. And a photographer friend has thought about getting one to do shots of buildings for new condos, etc.

There will be an influx of Great Grey Owls in the winter of 2017

Funny story....
My drag was a bit too tight on the rod....
I was feeding my son a bottle and the beeper starts going off....
Set him down gently and just caught my rod pod and rod before it went too far into the water....
Beepers act crazy funny when soaked....almost went over the ledge and lost in the deep...

5lbs and under, no paper work is needed.RJ wrote:I had a chat with a fella about those drones. He has to have a license to fly his...I wonder how many do.
It’s my understanding that 5lbs and above you need to submit papers to Transport Canada.
You must avoid crowded areas and airports.
