This was the accompanying text:
\"No schock leader needed here.The sturgeon fishermen on the Columbia River routinely cast,or shoot 16 ozs and bait 300 yds.It is a hugh sling shot tentioned down to the trip device by a hand or electric wench.The line is loaded onto the five gallon bucket spool for less resistance.A line foot counter tells how much line to load from the reel onto the bucket.The line spools off the bucket for about 10 to 12 seconds before touchdown. \"


Guess what I want next Christmas?:)
 
Thats brilliant Pat. Best about it is you could set it up at high tide on blyth beach and still wouldn\"t have to move even at low water lol.

Guess what I want for Xmas. (Haven\'t had one of those for years)
 
would come in handy for firing at divers or those annoying boats that sit just off the piers when they have the whole sea to fish in. Wonder what sort of explosive devices we could get to fire from the thing.

LOL only joking (or am I).

I suppose you could always take out the red arrows during sunderland airshow.
 
It would save you climbing round the 1st gate anyway(Shields pier) not that you could carry it round mind you LOL :P :P
 
a brilliant catapult for those lovely little boats that creap around the beach with their nets out, have a few nice piles of rocks awaiting them, and the pefrect night fishing,
Do they come with telescopic sights too, for wheelhouse accuracy.
