Special thanks to Jamie Laing! without his model this could not have happened.
I needed a Float/Berley for the 14th November giant moon event and it was 13th November at 10pm... So I got to work, found this excellent 'Screw Ball' object that was the perfect shape to modify into a pill shaped berley trap. 11:31pm Started printing, the larger of the two stl files took 4 hours to print and the other 3 hours. 8:26am 14th heading out to test the new trap. It will be 2m off the bottom. It has a closed ball of air inside it to make it float up, the weight will hit the bottom with the trap floating 2m off the bottom. I will let you know how it goes!!! =D
Fishing was not so good, New Zealand had a around 50 plus earthquakes that day... We saw tons of fish but they were not biting and all swimming away from the coast. The trap however work perfectly according to design so I can't waiting to go again soon!
