[@gregorywatkins3585]

Great video, just one thing to mention please please please DO NOT have the ski running while throwing a cast net. If the rope ends up in the intake while attached to your wrist it will be a very bad day. It will also leave you stranded as the rope will wrap tightly around the shaft. We use our skis for pretty much anything we can, but while having loose lines in the water the ski is always off. Just figured this was worth mentioning to people. Have a good day.

[@tonymai1844]

Chance is small to him. He is good at the cast net

[@markgreen2170]

haha, that would just make the video funnier!

[@andapen]

I could tell from the minute I started watching your channel that you’d take off. The production value is insane. Total inspiration!

[@LifeByTheBow]

Appreciate those kind words working hard each and every day to produce great content different from the norm therefore when the Sea Doo opportunity came up it was a no brainer 💪🏼

[@samw2768]

[@Jetski270]

The Sea Doo is a superb upgrade for those of us who fish from Kayaks. You’ll get from point to point much faster. It’s much more stable than a kayak and has plenty of storage space. No one should replace a boat (if you already own a boat) for a sea doo unless the sea doo fish pro fits your needs more than a boat. That’s ease of transporting, storage, cleaning , maintenance cost, quick launch from the ramp or shore and purchase cost. To those who own big boats, or even a bay boat , more power to you. The Sea Doo fish pro is a fishing kayaker’s , or flat boat owners dream come true.

[@biffjohnson2076]

Looks a lot more fun than shoveling snow, digging out vehicles, and going to work in the cold. Great video!

[@LifeByTheBow]

Agreed my friend thanks for watching!

[@johnmoney66]

Thanks for the video guys. From the NE (New Jersey), I can see these being perfect for crabbing in the channels and some fishing in the Bay. Also, like you said, it serves as a dual purpose because you can transform it to just having fun on a SeaDoo

[@LifeBeginsOnTheWater]

Awesome guys, looks like y’all had a blast on those Sea-Doo fish models. Great content

Great video. I noticed you used the small fold out anchor. I have two 300gtx that’s the similar hull and engine and love them. However running coastal AL those fold ups won’t stick or hold for me in current and chop. Had to move to a heavier anchor. I like the options sea doo provides

Awesome video! Been looking at these to purchase. I hope people put out more videos and Sea Doo starts promoting fishing tournaments.
