Default Shooting a wire over a grove of tall trees. What works?

I paint my lead sinkers bright yellow and it is a breeze to spot them. W4lm

The trouble is I don't know how far it went. 100ft 100yards or
100miles. The 4lb fishing line is invisalbe from more than a few feet
away.


1) Paint your projectiles blaze orange.
2) Use a heavier fishing line, it sound like you have the power to launch
it now.
3) Tie the trailing end of your fishing line to a big rock or your ankle
or something that won't be dragged into flight.

You're almost there -- see you on 160!!
