jetskibrian Posted December 16, 2014 Report Share Posted December 16, 2014 Finally caught a nice Striped Bass today while on my jet ski. I was using live eels for bait. Had two runs and caught one Striper that went 45 inches. I have been catching mostly schoolies so it was nice to get a good one today on the Eastern Shore of Virginia in the Chesapeake Bay. It was flat and glassy conditions and I was back by 1100 am. Here are a couple pictures from the last couple trips.

Charleston Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 Brian's setup is awesome. I am still playing around with the idea of buying a ski and having it rigged. I am old but I'm slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MorningWood Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 I am still playing around with the idea of buying a ski and having it rigged. What's the range on these skis? Brian What inlet do you take yours out of? MorningWood(*member formerly know as 'kevnmary') Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garriga Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 That's amazing catching quality fish off a jet ski. Been thinking about it since I can remember but can never find one that seems right. The setup there looks perfect. What type is it and were the additions home grown or available options. Really nice catch, BTW. HOW BOUT DEM COWBOYS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charleston Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 Cost is a big negative. I looked at it. I saw a leftover 2013 jet ski for $11000. I did not ask what the rigging coast but I'll bet it's no more than $5K. So I could be fishing for say $20,000. Less than the cost of a new truck. I am old but I'm slow.

buzzellc Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 I believe that Brian has a website that is similar to his posting handle. From what I remember he has two of the Yamaha 1200 SUV's and two much newer Honda 4 stroke ski's. He also does some guiding on the jet ski's. He is generally fishing the lower Chesapeake Bay and I have seen posts from Hatteras as well. Land locked in Wisconsin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
