Default Long-range bait casting

Does anyone have knowledge of the slingshot/catapult that bank fishermen use
to sling their baits out long distances while sturgeon fishing?

A bit much to drag to the beach :-)

I've wanted such a device for years when shark fishing from the beach,
but where I fish they don't allow an 18 wheeler to haul your gear,,
actually they don't allow any vehicle

Wow! What's next?
Rocket launcher? Hope, no nuke missile.. It's hard to eat RadioActive Fish!
LOL.

But there are many slingshots for sale in Europen cities as they use them
for Carp quite regulary. Chumming with slingshot is mostly illegal in North
America
but it is encouraged in Europe.
