G'day! Yep, I just cut the line at the leader. Easier said than done. It took me 3 attempts. Everytime she comes close and I grab the knife... off she goes... so after a 1 hour battle, when we are both exhausted... I have a few good seconds to cut the leader. I have caught many sharks off the Seadoo fishpro and the best tip is to avoid trying to take the hook off their mouth. I tried this one on a smaller shark around 1.5m and one of its tooth scrapped my finger (it's not worth trying to do the right thing in this circumstance). Have fun and be safe!

Thanks mate, welcome to the channel and to the Seadoo Fish Pro family! The deepest I've fished on the Seedoo is approx 65m and the Garmin does a good job (in default settings) sounding up fish. BTW my garmin sounder does not have the side scan. I don't know if the newer Seadoo fishpros come the latest Garmin sounders with side view. Worth asking. Tight lines!

Thanks, mate! 😊 🎣

You're not wronge hey... Nothing to see here LOL. We don't want to attract a swarm of boats & jet skis'.

Hi Mate, we gift them to our Philippino friends who absolutely love them. We eat them also... panco crumbed fish fingers with seafood sauce in burgers. The kids like it. But, I mostly chase them because they give my rod a nice bend... lots of fun! Maybe you just need to add more sauce 😂

Hi Lesley, I hope you're doing well! I'm glad you enjoyed the video 😀 Your uncle desperately wanted to bend a rod, so I put him onto some Tuna.

Hi Mate, Yes, we are. I'm located at the Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia 🇦🇺 😎 Thank you for supporting the channel!

@@JohnCanFishTVDo you have lights on your ski for when it’s dark? It’s mandatory in the US.

@Jackspratcouldeatnofat I've never fished off a Boston Whaler, but I'm sure it must be a great experience. Fishing off the Seadoo Fishpro has it's pros and cons. But I think the pro's out weigh the cons. These days with the rise is the cost of fuel, it only costs me $50-$60 per day trip, it's easy to tow around, it's got a lot of power, it can handle swell, I can take the family out and tow the kids on an inflatable 4 man tube and much more.

Ditto all those things for the small Whaler too.

haha, thanks, brother!

Hi Mate, thank you so much for your comment! My Seadoo Fishpro has an iDF system. It allows us to clear clogged intakes without getting wet with the push of a button. Therefore, it can clear out plastic bags, sea weed, etc from the intake. However, ropes, fishing line & cast nets is a totally different beast as it can easily get wrapped up around drive shaft. I think Seadoo or ANYONE (with engineering skills) can invent a strong plastic mould grill plate that would solve this fishing line issue and not affect water intake will make a bunch of $$$ (if patented right).

@@JohnCanFishTV Yes it's concerning as I've just got a Yamaha FX and put some second hand Tubbies on it. But that problem seems to be where outboards have it over Jetski's. Also in thinking of going out in it and observing others when taking a look at the people doing it when you can see them from land 99% of the time they are in groups. I hardly know anyone that does it, let along be able to do it at the same time as the ones you know. Being by yourself is always concerning, a bit of a worry. Can feel safer in a kayak, no mechanical issues to worry about. Let alone get a suitable window in the weather and swell. I'm at Noosa. Plus Jetski's seem to be hated by most rich yuppies that want everything banned in our river because they don't use the river like us (and the young idiots that abuse Jetski's here) and so forth etc. Cheers

@@mickallan2071 I've only been Jetski Fishing solo... even at night! But, you just need to always be aware of all the possible issues and have the right safety gear. If I get stuck, I call Volunteer Marine Rescue Southport (I'm a paying member... well worth every dollar). I call them with my mobile phone as there is mobile coverage up to 24fathoms. However, I've started to fish around 36 fathoms lately, and their is no mobile coverage. I didnt know that until one day the engine wouldnt start (I even have two marine batteries linked up for safety). So, I ended up buying a VHF Marine Handheld radio. A good one with 5watt transmit power. It's a Uniden MHS127. I will post another video soon on Jetski safety and talk about the time the engine wouldn't start at 36fathoms and what I did to save myself. This is why I ended up buying a VHF Marine radio). I learn from my experiences and share it so hopefully I can help others prevent it from happening to them. Video coming soon!

Hi Mate, maybe fishing paddle boards 😄 Imagine hooking up to a nice Tiger Shark 🦈 on that?

5 miles out. I'm from the Gold Coast Australia.

@@JohnCanFishTV oh I wish it was that close for me.... Ya I hoping to go from FL to Bahama eventually.

I'm very blessed. It's important to have a balanced life. Many people forget to live.

@@JohnCanFishTV absolutely, there's a difference between existing and truly Living 👌

They go hard out

Yes. We have Volunteer Marine Rescue (VMR) a non profit organisation. We pay an annual membership price. Very affordable. They are just like coast guard. I go with VMR as it takes away the strain off the coast guard.

@@JohnCanFishTV ty John love your channel

@@JohnCanFishTV you in tampa

@@absolutecrypto95 Thanks champ! BTW I noticed your name having crypto on it... I have been in crypto since 2017! It's going to be a big institutional bull run this time around. 10T-15T market cap this cycle.

@@absolutecrypto95 I'm on the Gold Coast, Australia :)

They always collect 😀

Hi Mate, yeah there are a lot of these little unexpected challengers that arise, and it's best to learn from other people's mistakes so you are prepaired for them when they happen. I appreciate all your comments on my videos! 😊

Thank you 😁

Thanks mate!

Thank you

Thanks, mate!

cheers mate!

See the full video here ua-cam.com/video/fEr6Bl20wrI/v-deo.html I like to set my drags fairly loose so the fish can feel little resistance and get the bait down deep. I usually find the baits in their stomachs when I do this, and it increase hook up rates. I ended up catching this fish.

I've lost big fish in the past with overly tight drags. But in this case, you will see that I gradually tighten the drag. I ended up catching the fish, and a shark decided to tax me 😅 Check out the entire video here ua-cam.com/video/fEr6Bl20wrI/v-deo.htmlsi=-dDj3mUE24e0AKhx. Thank you so much for supporting the channel.

In Australia, we also need lights on our Jet skis in the dark. We need navigation running lights whilst travelling and anchor lights when anchored.

It's crazy how easy it is to get your fishing line sucked up. You just take your eye off the ball for one second, and before you know it... your line is sucked up and you're in big trouble. Thanks for your comment and I hope you enjoy my channel!

Hi Mate, thank you for your comment and for supporting the channel! I prefer to use my saltiga 10,000 with 60 lb braided line, 80 pound leader... as for rod... I prefer my Shimano T-Curve 400 (37 kg rod). This used to be my jigging rod for big kingfish, but I don't do much deepsea jigging anymore.

hi Mate, it's a Seadoo Fish Pro

I have limited experience in trolling, and I had to learn to hard way. I appreciate your tips.

The Seadoo Fishpro has an inbuilt trolling mode that you can preset the trolling speed. But the lowest troll speed you can set (I think) is 3 knots.

Mate, you won't regret it. Life is too short, enjoy!

I can't tell you the exact spot as we all have our secret spots. But, I can say... Use live baits and go to Google Earth and look for man made lakes. Also, when using livies, use double snooded hooks and try to avoid using sinkers. This way, the live bait can look as natural as possible. I hope this helps!

Hi Hector, too fast! I've been told you shouldn't be towed more than 6 knots. Anymore than 6 knots, your engine gets flooded. Once that happens, you won't be able to start your engine and need to take your jet ski to a machanic immediately to have the engine removed and flushed out.

Hi Chris, it's great to hear that you have been catching a few fish on your jetski... well done mate! However, fishing off a jetski can be dangerous if you are unaware of the dangers... such as getting your line sucked up and unable to get the line removed. Once you are that predicament, you will need an organisation like VRM to help you. So, this video is simply promoting safety.

G'day @TheMuddatrucker, I appreciate your comment. Unfortunately, we are not taught how to flip jetskis upside down, sit on the hull and remove the intake grate. That may work for a mechanical person who's experienced... but for someone like me... it will be highly dangerous as I would not know what to do. I'm certain I'm not alone. In fact, it took me almost 45 mins, removing the jammed up line and lure on dry land. I didn't dare remove the intake grate just in case I will cause more damage. As for VMR, they provide a service to help people who face dangerous situations out at sea and the reason why we pay an annual service fee. I'm sure you would agree, that unless you are confident in doing all that ski flipping mechanical stuff, it's best not to take any chances and just call for help.

@@JohnCanFishTV the Vmr service you mentioned I’m not familiar with as I’m in the U.K. is it like a breakdown service on the ocean? If that’s a service you pay for then that’s ok to call for help. I just presumed any help you’d be calling for that far out would be a Coast Guard. In the U.K. we don’t really have any rescue service other than the coast guard and I don’t think they’d be happy with me calling them out for a problem that I’ve already been taught how to solve. The hardest part of the whole job for me is having to jump in and get wet/cold - U.K. remember 🥶 You stand on the side of the ski and just pull it over, it’s dead easy. Climb up the back onto the hull and stick the knife into grate and start cutting yourself free. Removal of the grate shouldn’t really be necessary but it’s possible. The only important part to remember is when you flip the ski back right again there’s usually a certain way to do it left/right? I can’t remember, there was an arrow on the hull reminding you the correct way otherwise you’d flood the engine. But like you said, if you’ve paid for a service then might as well use it. Sorry for that, my bad 👍🏻

@TheMuddatrucker it's all OK mate. I'm on the Gold Coast (Australia) and we are very fortunate to have Volunteer Marine Rescue (VMR) to help us in situations like this. They don't charge a lot (approx 52 pounds per year) but it's totally worth it. This is why I created the UA-cam video to encourage everyone who has a boat or jetski to sign up to VRM. It's just another way of thanking them for helping me out.

@@JohnCanFishTV the places you go look amazing! I can’t even begin to imagine what it must be like to live there 👍🏻😊 I’ll have a look at VMR when I get a spare minute too. Skis are fantastic for fishing from, go anywhere in any sea state and they just power through everything. But My only gripe with a ski is the fact you only have one engine/propulsion system, I’d like to see these new “Fish” skis have the option of a second (emergency) back up propulsion system. There’s always plenty of room inside the hulls of these big skis so a back-up system should fit in there somewhere. The closest I’ve been to needing rescue was when fishing next to rocks in Pembrokeshire Wales, I couldn’t get the engine started and was drifting into rocks! Apparently what had happened was because the engine was Off and the sea quite rough and constantly slapping the hull, water got inside the air box and caused the starting issue. I look forward to seeing a few more of yours videos later 👍🏻

Gee, that would work well with all the fishing gear. If it is not too bad you can dive and do it, but rolling the ski would be an expensive day.
