    The biggest fish i've caught on the jet ski!

    Oh, until recently I sailed a design created by one from down your way, the F-31R (Ian Farrier), a real screamer when the wind pipes up to 15kts++.

    The biggest fish i've caught on the jet ski!

    Thanks for the input guys. There are some upriver streams I wanted to explore for Rockfish, bass etc. Keep hearing tales about the Stripers up there at certain times of the year. I own the 2013 GTS 130 and wondered if I could idle across some shallow areas less than 2ft. It appears that would...

    The biggest fish i've caught on the jet ski!

    I watched your Biggest Fish on a Jetski video. That was some impressive bottom fishing. Something else was of interest to me and that was your motoring out the channel. You seem to say the depth was about half a meter. By my reckoning that is about 20 inches. I am new to the PWC family and have...

    Gave it another go Friday. Still struggling with the Lithium Iron Battery. It performed somewhat better after 12hr constant charge. Still less than 2hrs with the 45lbs C2. ' Did well fishing. Unable to avoid showing off my 20in Smally, 14 and 15" Lg mouth and something broke my ultralite...

    Oh, gave my leftover shad to some fishermen on a pontoon boat. Turned a frown in smiles (small white lies about my fishing success).

    I couldn’t wait to get all my ducks in a row. Had to see what it felt like fishing aboard my new girl. I purchased an Enduro C2 45lb thrust trolling motor. It was just adequate in the stiff current below the dam in Chattanooga. I also bought a Mighty Max Lithium Iron (LiFePO4) 35Ah battery. It...

    Algae bloom in the sea when Jet ski fishing

    The human pollution (causing Red Tide) is so bad in Southwest Florida it is becoming the place to avoid for the Salt Life. I sold out and moved away and now I will return to a "once was" home for 50yrs as a renter with no lease. The Republicans have fouled the nest. Check this out: Florida...

    Follow on: In the absence of experienced guidance from this forum about installing second battery (where and how) I made the “plunge” without guidance. Maybe u will all gain from my mistakes, as they are sure to follow. I ordered the Lithium Iron Phosphate because it only weighs 4.3lbs and is...

    I hope there is some wealth of experience in freshwater fishing from skis like the Seadoos. I’m setting up for casting and live bait fishing. 1st I need to set up a trolling motor to creep around structures that hold bass and crappie. I am leaning toward a Minn Kota 40-45lb thrust off the stern...
