Great picture, nice looking day to be on the water.

Yeh, hard to believe it is the middle of the ogen. I had more waves on my horses drinking trough today (and less sun).

So is that some sort of mini rocket propelling the light line? I seem to remember from the 60's-70's a sort of 'dildo' slipped over the end of a standard rifle (SLR- 6.25 mm) for getting the light line across. I can't remember but guess a blank was loaded to lauch the 'dildo'.

We use these at work, slightly different model of gun though. I hate using them because the line is never stowed in the box right and they manage to get a tangle in them somewhere along the shot.
