Deep Dive Review Seadoo Fish Pro Trophy

[@jstrom3007]

I'm not jealous that's another toy to envy about especially when the rear seat can be propped up into a fighting chair, that's sick! Your going to have a great time with this fishing toy.

[@saxet9049]

I ain’t gonna lie… I’m jealous. That’s one well thought out fishing machine 👍

[@glynthomas8492]

Hi, good all round video. I live in the UK and have just had delivery of my Fish Pro Trophy. I fish for Sea Bass in the Menai Straits that separate Anglesey from the mainland. It is said to be one of the most treacherous waterways in the UK( As said by Lord Nelson)It has a vast of rocks, very strong currents and riptides as it floods from both ends and can be quite rough when wind and tides are against each other, so I hope the Fish Pro is up for the challenge. I usually fish with live Sand Eels so the live bait-well is an added bonus for me, as previously on my rib I had to have pumps,batteries & Large containers to keep them alive. I have just fitted the Megaware KeelGuard to the hull to offer a bit more protection to the gel coat as I launch off a concrete slip. Looking forward to getting it out on the water.

[@TheEmediaSolutions]

If you are in the UK you will not have the swivel chair on your Trophy. Have you worked out how to get one aftermarket yet? I am buying a Trophy next week but am disappointed we can't get the swivel seat over here.

[@glynthomas8492]

Hi, no I have not looked at getting the swivel seat, where I fish it would not be practical. I usually fish on the drift with live sand eels, so l am constantly on the move. I have had to have a new impeller and wear ring already, sucked up some weed that had a stone in it, smashing the impeller. Today I had to use the IDF system again to flush out weed, luckily no stones.

[@theDalaiLloyd]

Thanks for the great look at your boat!

[@johnleonardnc5418]

Excellent Fish Pro review! I'm an old USCG Galveston guy, so appreciate your TX perspective. I'm shopping for a Sea-Doo Fish Pro, but will probably do more all around watersports (SUP, toys, some fishing). I think Fish Pro Sport 170 will be perfect for me. I'm subscribed now, THANKS!! 👍

[@BillRoberts242]

Excellent review! Thank you. I'm thinking seriously about getting one of these, and it's difficult to find a good review on all the little details. Again - thank you.

[@NefariousTribe]

Just a suggestion for that empty space under the hatch, a medkit. It would be quick and easy to get to.

[@artlife6210]

theres a guy with one of these where we fish the backwaters, he explained to us he hasnt had much luck catching reds or snook, and that was during snook season and when reds are chewing hard...on days we were killing it, he couldnt buy a bite....turns out its so loud just idling into the area where the fish are spooks it for a couple hours, definitely a crafty ride but probably best for places where any sort of stealth isnt a priority

[@speedball10169]

Or you could just shut the machine off when you get to your spot

[@Guy-ky9mc]

This is really really cool. I've done a lot of fishing from many non-normal or convenient things. It takes a lot of thought and this looks really nice. I did some fishing recently off a tiny zxi 750 in rough conditions and it's a challenge.. tied a smaller cooler right on the back but I was able to get out there and catch some big ol red drums. You can get out there for cheap if you're crafty

[@martyfrank957]

Can't wait to see your new toy with some fish slime on . I'm jealous. Hope to see you at the fishing show next weekend.

[@joncooper7055]

I order mine tomorrow. Your video was golden

That is so cool looking forward to the videos. Please dont dissapeared again!!!

[@CarolineVendette]

So nice!!! I know you ca add a wake pole on that thing...but typically, you would need 3 seats...am i wrong if i see only 2 sests? Another thing is the noise ...is it louder than a boat when trolling at low speed?

For the compartment next to your fire stinger sure you should have BRP safety kit specific size for that cubby

Good job of showing us your new Seadoo. I live in Tallahassee Florida. Look me up and when I get mine we can go have fun with these. I watched where two guys went to the Bahamas on them. I would like to do that also.

[@KagenFishing]

That’s a bucket list trip for me for sure

[@hectoralfaro8445]

Great review, been looking at those for a while but your review was really good and you'll be using it the local waters around me so thats cool to see.

[@rickss69]

Actually, less hp and more fuel range would be the ticket for a fishing ski. I don't need to be going 60mph on the water.

[@socialmediagoon892]

The speed is for safety from weather

Nice job on review learned more from your video than any other very nice job thanks. John.

[@jamesstrachan2288]

Thanks for the video. I am a big guy at 137 kgs, do u think the seat would be wobbly for me with that weight? Cheers

[@KagenFishing]

I don’t think so it’s pretty dang stable. Might take a bit it get used to but it’s not gonna flip on ya

[@JimTheHunt]

Are they built for the salt water? Like the Pacific Northwest salt water with big waves.

[@KagenFishing]

I say yes. Is everything corrosion proof? No. But the great thing about the fish pro is that it uses internal coolant that circulates through motor and is cooled by a grate under the ski by the water. So no salt water goes into engine. The only thing is to just keep up with flushing impeller and other regular maintenance.

[@kevinmalott9625]

If you had to choose between your boat and your Fish pro which would you choose? Thanks

[@KagenFishing]

I mean each have their own special characteristics. Jet ski is awesome for deep/ open water fishing, wade fishing and just fun to ride on. Boat is better for when trolling motor is needed to work shorelines and bringing multiple ppl to fish but slower than jet ski and not as fun to rip around in

[@UmLl11f_vK8Vo1eXsNDw]

Dude, nice video. A bit off topic - I realy like your trailer, how short it is. I'm looking for something like that, can you share details, please?

[@ArbitraryLifestyle]

Damn, this machine is gonna make me sell my Hobie PA14 360 setup haha. SUPER well-thought-out!! I'm stoked to watch you fish off of this dude :D

[@rolylugo9106]

I’ll buy it from you

[@steveo1kinevo]

Stupid question, couldn’t you just leave the backrest in the backseat all the time whether the seat is up on the pedestal or lowered?

[@KagenFishing]

What it seems is that the seat has to be up for the back rest to fully drop into it but I will need to do more playing around with it. The other thing about having the seat back out is that it gives me wayy easier access to spin around and get into the cooler

[@tylerguild489]

I’ve been super interested in one of these. Like you, I’m on the Texas coast. I want to see you push this thing shallow searching for reds. I know it states the alarm will sound at less than 3 feet of depth but if I see you pushing this thing close to a foot or so depth and not sucking up sand/silt from the bottom, I’m pulling the trigger on one.

[@KagenFishing]

It will float and pole that shallow. I already turned off the shallow water alarm haha. But running the motor that shallow will pull up silt/sand. That’s why I plan to put a trolling motor on it. Also if I’m that shallow I can just hop out and wade if it’s a hand enough bottom.

[@Independent_Voices]

They should make the rear seat a rising scissor lift.

[@paulkramer7698]

can you mount a trolling motor on it ?

[@tonyg3091]

[@outdooradventureswithjason6275]

Can’t even find one in central Florida

[@steveo1kinevo]

I put a deposit on one and they told me it will be coming in very soon at Broward Motorsports Tequesta. They have 6 coming in with two deposits already in place.

[@matthewdickson2627]

Did you consider a Yamaha fx with deck extension ? I currently have a 22’ bay boat but looking for something to launch quickly and just go fishing in by myself. I was considering a jet ski such as the trophy or Yamaha, or the soloskiff or true kit 3.3. Also in the clear lake/galveston area - thoughts ?

[@KagenFishing]

Each platform has its own pros and cons for each style of fishing. I got the fish pro to primarily go offshore on also pwc’s are just so fun to go for a ride on and if you want you can have a passenger. Solo skiff awesome shallow water marsh fisher but open water with some wind and you are going to get wet, also you will be the only person taking it out. . Downfall with both of those platforms in deeper water you have to anchor vs just throwing out the trolling motor and hitting spot lock. I say just get out and fish more in the boat you have now and if you don’t have a spot lock trolling motor get one cause having to anchor a bay boat is work with spot lock you just pull up to spot drop trolling motor hit button and you are good. Makes fishing solo way easier. I do miss getting way back in the mud on the solo skiff/kayak though.

[@matthewdickson2627]

@@KagenFishing thanks! I had spot lock on my last boat and loved it. My current boat has a trolling motor but no spot lock. I had a slip way back in clear lake, but found all the fishing so far away which led me to look at other platforms so I could just roll it into the water. Most launches are crazy busy and usually it is just me launching and going on the boat. I was even tempest by those inflatable dinghies like true kit and takacat with wheels to launch by the side of the road. I need to find more places in the area to fish :) !

[@eduardosanchez7827]

Would be great to adapt a trolling motor with gps anchor so you can keep on a spot without moving

[@KagenFishing]

100% would make a huge difference in fish-ability

[@stepabove2136]

Does it come with trailer or is it extra 🤔?

[@motomike007-1]

Been trying to find that anchor mount, where did get that from. Thx

[@Magajeep]

Can you remove the cooler and hook the water sport pole too?

[@KagenFishing]

Yes you can. I even believe you can use the water sport pole while still having the cooler on. As long is the cooler is back on the extended platform.

[@markmcmonagle6794]

will that backrest stay in the seat or do you have to take it out to run, incase you have another person with you?

[@KagenFishing]

You have to take it out to mount seat back on the ski

[@locosmiley2008]

what a dream machine. 17k is steep though but if you use it often totally worth it

[@stefanvzyl6275]

That's cheap. In South Africa the Fish pro Sport (not the trophy) costs you $29800 and in US its $15900.

[@whereshaynes]

How much does this weigh, fully loaded, on a trailer?

[@KagenFishing]

Good question. Never put it on a scale

[@mortalking9090]

So on the fish pro sport you can move the cooler to the back for more leg room?

Yah you can move it to any of the two linq spots on the ski

[@martinsmyth5580]

Does anyone know who builds the engines in these, and are they reliable

[@dusbus2384]

No IDF issues? I’ve read a bunch of horror stories and hesitated on pulling the trigger. How will this work on a grass flat in the bay?

[@KagenFishing]

I haven’t had any issues. As long as you have abt 2ft I don’t see the grass messing with it unless it’s super long where it’s floating on surface. Even still I don’t think it would mess with it cause I’ve gone over some thick seaweed patches offshore and it didn’t mess with the pump

[@650tonyd]

About 10 years ago there was a guy called jet ski Brian who was one of the first people to outfit his jet ski for fishing. I don't remember the name of the company but he had someone build him custom aluminum bimini tops for them. They were badass man

Hmm weird yours just happens to not work. Maybe shoot me a DM?

[@hammerdown3876]

@@KagenFishing - sorry... 10 mo later... lol. I think it has a issue with the sensor not picking up the seat as it doesnt register on the display when i install the pedestal. I wont be seeking dealer treatment for this... lol. Being able to leave the seat up jumping from cove to cove is great. at 57 mph i have had no issue with the seat being left up. And no... i wont let anyone ride in the seat while its up. Reality is.. the swivel seat is only useful when fishing by yourself due to room clearance. When the girlfriend is out with me or one of my kids, we just sit on the saddle seat.

[@tydengr]

perfect fishing machine. I rather spend money on this Seedoo than a nice car.

[@davidcozzi373]

Great video. Waiting for mine to come in. Can you use the back rest without raising the seat? If so, are you still limited to 18 mpg?

[@KagenFishing]

Just from me trying it seems to be that the seat needs to be raised for the back of the seat to go in properly. The seadoo recognizes the seat is up when you put the metal seat post into the ski which then limits you to the 20mph

[@wippdriver1]

If your impeller ever sucks up something it shouldn’t, then you know you can clear it yourself right?
