    Nice informative video. You should do another video of the setup of your new ski

    I fish in the US from my Honda Aquatrax PWC and it's very effective as a fishing tool. Mine isn't quite as ornately done as the vehicle shown here, but has the same safety and navigation gear. Well done video as it covers what to expect....and fish don't know the difference between a PWC and a yacht...

    I have done 85 hours on this ski now in the past 10 months, and have so far had no problems.

    Was curious how you mounted the GPS to the ski. Any special mount?

    It is very good below about 50kph on a calm day, and maybe 35kph on a choppy day. Above those speeds the return decreases, but even at very high speed the Lowrance still gives a black line showing the bottom and depth. When driving around looking for fish, it is perfect and I have used it in up to 300m (1000 feet)

    Is it really fun? I have small 2 seater ski that i wanna keep and either buy new waverunner or just a boat. I love boats but hate storage expenses and maintenance. Pls advise what shall i go with?

    How is the accuracy of your fish finder being inside the hull?

    Hey im also putting a fish finder on my Sea foo GTX. Can you tell me where exactly you put your transducer and how you mounted it and also how you mounted the screen on the GTX. Thank you Very much. I would greatly appreciate it.

      Hi Rebecca, if you watch this video, it shows how to install it on my new ski - the Yamaha FXHO. It is very similar to the install in the GTX155. How to install a Lowrance Sounder GPS on a Jetski for Fishing

      Jetski FishingShow Ok Thank you! Do you like the Yamaha FXHO better than the GTX?

      Rebecca Rivera Also do you still use the Lowrance HDS 5?

    • @jetskifishingchannel
      @jetskifishingchannel  10 років тому

      Rebecca Rivera Hi, yes I still use the HDS5, and the Yamaha is an awesome ski.

  • @jetskifishingchannel

    True, it would help in the event that your electronics failed, and the Seadoo GTX 155 has that built into it, hence why it wasnt mentioned.

    where did you get your life vest?

  • @jetskifishingchannel
    @jetskifishingchannel  12 років тому

    Hi, no special mount. I just cut a hole the appropriate size in the lid of the glove compartment, and then siliconed it in!

    Dont forget to add some chain to your anchor, without it the anchor doesn't work.

    hi so you wouldnt recomend a kawasaki for fishing

    • @jetskifishingchannel
      @jetskifishingchannel  4 роки тому

      Not really no. Their fuel efficiency is no where near the Yamaha. The Kawasakis are really made for racing. I started on a Kawasaki but quickly upgraded.

    you forgot the most important thing. WATER!!! on my fishing trips I bring a water bladder. For your purposes it's good because you can mount it under or over your life vest therefore you will always have it.

    I would recommend against a chain. It is unnecessary for a Jetski, and will only rattle and bash around in the limited storage space you have

    Hi, you can pick one up from JFK Jetskis - 09 262 4285. If you speak to Lisa and let her know you saw it on the Jetski Fishing Channel she will probably even give you a discount. This jacket is one of the most important pieces of kit I own when it is cold and / or windy!

  • @jetskifishingchannel

    Hi, I got it from JFK Jetskis in Auckland, NZ. You can contact them on 09 262 4285. I am sure they will ship it to you / order it in for you.
