Looking to drop bait while offshore fishing.

Here's some products.

Most work with the auxiliary landing light of the aircraft to activate.

I have seen something as simple as a picture hook attached to the bottom of a SPARK drone that seemed to work.





Fly out, keeping tension on the line, and then "hit the brakes" to allow the line to slide from the picture hook.

It may work depending on the weight of the bait?

OP asked about dropping bait- I’d think he meant a hopper type unit that drops bait pellets?

I want to use one of those to drop wildflower seeds in a programmed pattern to make a message.

If a baited hook / line is meant, Gannet is probably the original drop system developed for drones.

As per @MA2 317 post above, a simple hook can work with the right flying technique / conditions.

Be aware with any device, triggered or otherwise, the forces of line out in wind or weight over distance can be very hazardous to drone flight.
Braid line might be worth switching to, if not already using it.

If it will fit your drone try to get one that activates by your drones light and not one with a separate little unit with a button those are junk IMO
