Wife got sick of Boating, Launch gone.While waiting for the Ferry at Half Moon Bay I ran into Andrew just returning from a few hrs fishing, thought this looks like a good idea. Never been on a jetski in my life but look like fun. After twisting my wife's arm picked up a new Yamaha FX SHO Cruiser about a week before xmas, thought the seats look more comfortable. Picked up the equipment from Andrew in Jan and been out fishing ever since. Never used soft bait before, first time out 0 then after that fish every time except for the Sat of Auck Ann Weekend. Hope to see some of you out on the water.

Hi Gary, thanks for the feedback, I am so passionate about the jetskifishing and often think people believe I am spinning. When you say it like you did, just makes me know that it isn't in my imagination. I am so pleased you took the opportunity and enjoying the fun of jetskifishing. I should be back on the water next week,I look forward to meeting up with you.

Cheers, Andrew

Yes' it was a big change over I do miss the days and nights away, but at least it is a lot easier to go fishing by myself or with my son, plus it is a lot of fun with the speed etc and different type of fishing.

To go from a launch to a ski was a big move... I've not long been into jet ski fishing myself and I'm just so into it. Coped a bit a stick from the charter boats while out but then pulled in a good sized Snapper, so I had a little chuckle to myself while they stood on the boat catching nothing Razz

Saving up for the chilly bin set up and hopefully will get one soon.
