A drone was used some time ago (months to over a year) to carry a baited line out beyond the surf at a beach, find a school of tuna, and drop the hooked squid on the unsuspecting bluefin. The surf fisherman had to reel in a lot of line, but got his tuna.
There is no other way to target a small group of fish so precisely. Look for drones to be used in conjunction with fish-finding sonar by sports fisherman, if they aren’t doing so already.
