fishing

[demolition_x]

saw this on a fishing website i check out frequently.
guy travels up to 60 miles out.

pretty cool better than the typical coucher, wouldn't want to get stuck out in some slop on that though.

i'd be scared i would carch a big shark or something else on teh side pole and flip the ski or something

Moby Dick couldn't flip that thing.

seriously tho, why go through ALL that trouble just to do some fishing? thats gotta be so uncomfortable!

cutting bait, setting up your rods/lines, f that. my 20' is too small sometimes!!

my way is cheaper and it catches more fish! :smile:

he's got pretty nice gear too. i have that same baitrunner reel on one of my spinning rods. great stuff.

Watercraft world had a photoshoot years ago with the Yamaha SUV towed behind a Hummer, (a real Hummer 1 too) and that SUV made the Hummer look like a toyota. I tried to find the pic but couldn't. Those SUV's are stupid big, stable but big.

What I can't understand is how people justify the fuel consumption. 13GPH versus 13 Gallons per day in a standard boat.

50mph vs 20mph...thats how i justify my suv...wayyyyy less maintence, easy to work on..and in my experience most ocean going boats use the same if not more fuel..plus they are fun

ive gone out fishing on my ride for 10+ hours.. trolling, drifting, running WOT from one spot to another, etc... all my boys on board.. coolers... reggae jamming on the radio.. probably used 13-15 gallons all day and had all kinds of room, places to take a break, wasn't freezing or wearing a wetsuit, had places to cut my bait, re-rig rods and lines, a cabin to put all our stuff in and keep dry/safe..


i dont know. i see the "hardcoreness" of fishing off of a jetski, but that dude looks like he's spent some SERIOUS cheese on that ski. i'm probably 3k-4k in on my boat with everything included..... just seems cheaper to me.. and having the boys on board and chilling seems so much more fun.

[yamasaki]
