    Have you seen the new Sea-Doo "Fish Pro?"

    Billed as the first personal watercraft specifically designed for fishing. Quite pricey at $15,000 but it would be a pretty cool option for zipping around the bays and flats on the coast. It has a platform on the back so you can stand and cast.

      I have seen some other smaller craft with a 30 hp outboard on them that would be a lot better than that, not sure what they are called, seen two of them on Broken Bow lake, and they sit two people side by side.

        Day fishing only I guess, can't have a jet ski on the water after sunset.

            There's another one out there called a jet angler, it's a stick steer kayak, really neat. If the seadoo had a livewell I could see the point but it doesn't.

              People already rig jet skis out for fishing with: rod racks, cooler rack, depth finders, and extra fuel capacity. They actually use them to go to the short rigs to fish. Sea-doo is finally capitalizing on the market.

                fished one before and they work. but in shallow water, they pull in weeds(not this model) and I had to constantly get off to clear water intake.
                But i got to my spots super quick!!

                  I fish off my Kawasaki, but I don't have it all tricked out. I don't live right on the lake, but I can be on water in two shakes. Its great for chasing sandies.

                    I saw a center console jet powered boat the other day. Probably 16 foot, leaning post etc

                      I think I seen something like that, it looked pretty cool.

                        I like that concept. I bet it’s tough in big water though.

                          From my experience fishing in the Laguna Madre on a jet ski is the impeller, If they haven't found a way to keep the floating grass out of the intake pick up it will be shutting down every few minutes.

                            Pretty freakin cool!

                              I own this boat in the 190 model and love it so far. I mainly fish freshwater for blues and crappie but plan to take it to the coast.
