RE:Winter Steel
Jet skis ? Wait until the humpy run starts in the Snohomish. There's a couple of guys that run theirs from Everett all the way up to the confluence of the Sky & Snoq. Not too thrilled about their jigging treble hooked buzz bombs.

RE:Winter Steel
Not going to lie, if I had a jetski and no boat I would be fishing off it or at least using it to run to spots other bankies can't get to.

RE:Winter Steel
We fished from a larger jet ski for sockeye one year. We caught but I didnt like it much. I prefer a good boat seat and walls around me. Hey there FF. Those are some very beautiful fish pics. Thanks for sharing. Those fish have great coloring.

When youre up to your rear end in alligators,its hard to remember that the initial plan was to drain the swamp.

RE:Winter Steel
They reminded me of motocycles. Weaving in and out of traffic, hard to see. I personally think they should be used what they are designed for and drift fishing is not one of them. I seen one of them trying to get a rock out that he sucked up. We talked to several sleds and they weren't making any friends..Bodofish wrote:One of them almost ran into my bow....... He got out of the way in just the nick...... I didn't see him till he was real close, tough to see through the cab. Al vs Glass = glass splinters..... I like the way he was sporting the net!jens wrote:Surprised none of you guys commented on the 2 jackholes on the jet skis. I didn't think they were too bad, but one of them a on a couple occasions made passes in front of us while we were drifting. No fish in our boat 0/2 saturday but a buddy in a different sled took home 2 small hens. Most fish I seen caught were no bigger than 5 pounds. The guy in the wheelchair early in the morning banked a nice one.

RE:Winter Steel
I wouldnt mind have a jet ski set up for trolling the sound, for humpys and coho that would be a blast!
My rod and reel, they comfort me.

~Men and fish are alike. They both get into trouble when they open their mouths.
~My biggest worry is that my wife (when I'm dead) will sell my fishing gear for what I said I paid for it.

RE:Winter Steel
Honestly I could care less about your catching of rivers that most of us won't fish. Show me pics of fish from rivers around the green river or skyokomish or cowlitz. I know I don't have any pics to show anyone but I'd rather look at pics from guys who are catching in rivers that I will get to fish. Go start your own thread and label it winter fishing outside of washington or something. you would be the best fisherman in that thread I bet. good luck.fishenfreak wrote:12Lb vedder native today, no pic i was alone.

I fish not because I regard fishing as being terribly important, but because I suspect that so many of the other concerns of men are equally unimportant, and not nearly so much fun. ~ John Volker
