In a video uploaded to YouTube Aug. 7, even drone operator Tice Ledbetter had to admit that the fisherman’s cast was insanely accurate, remarking in the video description: “What a jerk! Gotta admit though, that cast was spot on!” Here’s a glimpse at the footage Ledbetter says he was filming at the time.
