If you can, manufacture/fabricate a catapult 6" in front of a fishing

You might be able to get the local kid to sell you his catapult.

Why not just use the rod and reel? Admittedly some can throw farther
than they can cast. OTOH in the city of Midland it is illegal to use
said catapult, bow, or other mechanical means of throwing things. At
least they've not outlawed the use of the rod and reel. Myself, I
like a good cross bow. OTOH you'd need a lot more than a 100 yards of
monofilament.:-))

Still it's not problem here as I live out in the country.
