Hi John,

An unmanned, floatation fish hook?

I thought these these were already on the market.

It seems kind of silly - if a large fish got a hold of it, they'd swim away with
the buoy behind them, and (poor things) they'd have the hooks stuck in their
mouths. Looks inhumane. I don't care for hunting animals in any form -
however, for the fisherman, I thought they have always said the sport was in
pulling up the fish. They could be napping when these fish are caught. [Could
be why 70,000 buoys in inventory are sitting around.]

Maybe I didn't look long enough at their site (I glanced for a few moments.) I
did like their fishy graphics.

Interested in hearing everyone's comments.

Thanks!!
