New float, that includes fish finder and more

[pattjjee]

I saw a shared post on Facebook about MagicCatch. Apparently it is a new float and a fish finder in one, besides that they have a new technology whereby you can tell an app on your smartphone to lower your hook to the same depth as your target fish is swimming. The float works with a wifi antenna that sends information to the app. With the app you can see how many fish there are swimming, how big they are, at what depth they are swimming and which kind of fish it is. They just started a Indiegogo (some kind of Kickstarter) champagne. My question is what do you think about this float?

I think the idea, whilst clever, is awful. Fishing is about the skill and patience surely? This takes it out of it. Imho, not for me im afraid 😛
