Beautiful place. Thanks for sharing 👍
hi, I'm about to buy a 2017 ex deluxe, I would also like to install a fishing kit, is it an adapted kit or is it for sale? Do you have a site where you can buy all fishing kits? hello thanks from Italy
hey antonio did you ever find this? Im getting one too and want to know
It's beautiful.
Waw this looks epic.
Hell I miss you guys
Loved the durban indian accent 😂😂😂
How do you find the stability of the Yamaha Ex Deluxe while fishing?
Prefectly fine. Obviously not as stable as a Fishpro or FX, but it serves me well
Nice video on a nice lake.
Hey man if you can get back to me that'd be awesome. I have a 2022 Ex myself and am dying to install a cooler in the back. Just had one question, what did you do with the water house that plows up from the back, dealer told me that can't be removed on Ex. Do you just place the cooler right on top of it?
did you figure out what you are going to do?
Beautiful place to fly a drone.
Also would love to know the setup on the Fishfinder. Where the battery is located, how it’s all wired and waterproof, and how it’s mounted
Awesome video! I would love to see how you mounted and connected the gps unit. Do you run cables to the front storage space to a second battery?
Kirita Bay and Kereta Bay are 2 different bays not far from each other.
Nice flight at Blue Lake.
Liked and subscribed.
Nice flight. Beautiful done. Big like 👍
Great video mate
Thank you Aidan 👍🏻
Been there,done that! The climb to the beach is not for the unfit!🤗
Hi @Pete Livin' Large - did you have to apply for permission to fly at the falls? I have been wanting to fly this location for quite some time, but the DOC web site's wording is confusing over whether or not you _should_ apply for permission to fly here (I don't know whether they mean that you're unlikely to get permission, so don't bother, or "you don't really need to get specific permission to fly there", confusing. Secondly, did you fly from the car park? Cheers! Love the 'over the egde' shot.
awesome fishing mate, that last fish was massive
Cheers David.... It was a cracker of a day mate.
Well do aunty pete
Aah thank you aunty Kerry😘❤️
Nice one mate
Nice catch Pete! You picked a stunning day for it 🤩
Cheers mate 👍🏻👍🏻 Yeah it was a cracker of a day for jetski fishing. Glassy most of the day, very little wind with a perfect drift speed... Couldn't have asked for better 🔥
Congrats! 👍😊 . Great calm day where did you launch from? Groetnis 😎
Thank you 👍🏻👍🏻 Kereta Bay Boat Ramp
omg I see my batch 0:41 it is black and white
Awesome !! You are very fortunate to have a batch out there. Its a beautiful place that
Hi! Great video as the others. Where do you launch to use the Waikato river? Groetnis! 😏
Thank you, I use the boat ramp in Pukete, Hamilton
Masyallah
Great video as usual. What drone are you using? Keep it up. Groetnis! 😎
Thank you. I use the DJI Air 2s. Its not ideal for the jet ski, so I might be looking at a dji mini 3 for when we're out on the water. A bit more compact than the Air 2s
Getting my ski some time in August. Cannot wait. Live in Paeroa so will also go out around Thames area
Another great video. Lekker man! You live in Thames? I live in Paeroa and getting a ski soon and looking at spots to launch. Cheers
Thanks again bud, I live in Hamilton. The firth is my favourite spot to fish. The fishing is usually good there. Getting a ski is a great idea, you're gonna enjoy it
Lekker man! 🙄😉 great video. Where did you launch your ski? Cheers
Thanks man......I usually launch at the Kereta Bay boat ramp. It's about 30 minutes past Thames. It's an all tide ramp and it's right on the mussel farms
Where did you launch from bro?
Kereta Bay boat ramp. About 30 minutes north of Thames. Very cool spot to launch because it doesn't get too busy and it's all tide. Also right on the mussel farms
What jig was it?
Can you fish ok on the EX Deluxe? How stable is it?
It's not as stable as a yamaha fx or fish pro, but I fish perfectly fine on my Ex. I've fished off Waihi Beach, Firth of Thames, Raglan and around Hauraki Gulf with no problems. Considering I'm also 6'3 tall, I manage perfectly.
@@petelivinlarge what sort of conditions you fished? Have you fallen off it like your kids? lol I'm 5'11 but 120kg considering a Jetski. Think the EX Deluxe would be suitable for all weather fishing?
@@aidanhill I've fished in some very windy choppy conditions and it was ok. Didn't sit side on, but sat facing either backwards or forwards when it gets real choppy, just for the balance. But i would probably do the same on an FX or Fishpro to be honest. In decent conditions, i sit side on no problems
Great video! That drone footage at the beginning looked so cool!
Thank you mate..... I like to get some drone footage in there just to give an idea of where we are and the surroundings.
@@petelivinlarge Yeah it makes it look really cool!
Lekker boys!!!
#greatvideo.
Great video and love the scenery! How did it go with balancing on the EX with fishing bin on the back out on the Wild West? Would you mind doing tutorials on 1) how to assemble/“make” your fishing bin, and 2) how to install/“fix” the fishfinder?
What drone are you using
Watse drone gebruik jy
DJI Air 2S
Awesome footage 👍
Great video, my neighbourhood 😎
I live in nz and i've been to maraetai like alot of times and my aunties and uncles live in beachland...I remember jumping off the wharf and the water is so deep...Wish i can go there one more time!👌
Hallo Peter. Awesome video - how did the custom fishing box work for you? Balancing ok when drift fishing in rougher water? Anything you would do differently with the box and it’s attachments if you got a second chance doing it again - any lessons learnt to share with me? Thanks, Pieter
Hi Pieter. Thank you for the compliment. I found the box worked perfectly fine for me. Its a make shift set up, but it was pretty stable and worked exactly as I hoped it would. I won't be putting any kingfish in there because of the size but it will definitely hold a few snapper, Trevally etc
Hello from Canada; cool looking video, that is a huge water fall. Nice job on the flying of the drone.
Thanks mate, I'll subscribe right back 👍🏻
Great footage 👍liked & subscribed, thanks for sharing 😀
Cheers for that. I'll subscribe right back
Cool Peter ‼️‼️👍👌 watching your video in Japan 🇯🇵now 😀
Beautiful ❤ I wished I had been to have a look before moving from Hamilton to Japan 🇯🇵
Great video's Peter 👍 I had no idea about Kawhia Hot Water Beach 😲
Beautiful video Peter ‼️‼️👌❣❣ I spent most of my life at Cook's Beach ⛱ footage I have never seen before. I'm now in Japan and makes me sooo homesick when I see amazing videos like this 🏆❤
Thank you Kevin. It is definitely a very special place
