Great vid, subscribed. I fish out of Freeport. One suggestion I would make with a worried wife and also if you value your life. Get a Garmin mini inReach. It is a satellite text messenger that tracks your location. It can send live updates to your wife or with a text message you send. Will work anywhere on the ocean. And most importantly, it has a SOS button that you can hit and rescue will come if things go south. I also carry a PLB to call for rescue as a backup. I wouldn't go on the ocean or anywhere remote without them. They are life savers.
These are the vids that make your channel different. You show us how it really is and interact with us as if we’re right there with you. Keep on doing you brotha.
Dig what you are doing. You have heart. Ignore the nay sayers. Thank you for getting out there and trying new things. You’re not afraid to get out there and try and learn. It will pay off ten fold later on, and you are inspiring others to get off the couch and go fishing. Great job man. God bless!
I dont really worry about what others say. My first time in salwater on this thing and I am learning the ropes as they say. Did not expect to suck up my line but at least I know the Seadoo IDF works awesome
Always … we all know how it goes sometimes … it takes time to figure things out … and you’re also on a big ass Jet Ski … I would positively get an anchor and a front trolling motor
Hey, sir! Great video. I fish from a 2023 wake pro 230 (crazy, right?!) I’ve learned that all you need are 2 poles, nothing more than 6’6, otherwise it gets cumbersome. I use Penn Battle 3 (one 4500 and one 6000 and heavy rod). I have to be deliberate with what I bring. Don’t be afraid to move around on the ski, they’re like water tanks!
You have to be comfortable on it. That will come in time. You didn't stand up once on it.😄Have fun with it and don't worry about being perfect. Nice video . Forget the haters.
I actually did stand up just didnt add that part. You are right I am not use to it and is gonna take awile for me to get comfertable. man I am sore by being so stiff on it
Hopefully fishing off a ski isnt as hard as you make it look. Why not turn the ski off when you hookup to a fish and focus on the catch? Nice seadoo and good job!
Its actually not as hard as I made it look. The currents were strong in the channel and that is why I kept starting it up to make sure I did not end up on the rocks. My first time out so the second time will be better.
You show me a dude who goes out every time, fills their boat with fish, no broken lines, no equipment fails, no bad weather ever, no mechanical issues, a wife like June Cleaver… without any “editing” whatsoever…and I’ll show you a damn liar👍 Keep rocking it brother cause ain’t no damn dude I know like that who walked on this damn planet (except Jesus, and he didn’t have a wife). At least you have the balls to tell it and show it👊🏼🏝️🎣
Definitely get some mono or floro leader. I use mono it's cheaper works just as well. Probably fine with 20 lb for sheep. Double UNI is an easy leader to line knot. FG is my favorite. Good luck have fun. I dont fish for anything in the ocean without leader just a heads up.
I don't think I would be fishing with the motor running on a Sea Doo Fish Pro. I just don't see the need to do that. Just keep drifting and resetting like when on my buddies boat out in the bay. Looks like he's fishing in an inlet here, at that point I would just drop anchor and fish that way if the current is way to strong.
Just an observation.. Are you fishing or riding? I think if you shut’er down and concentrate on one at a time you’ll smooth things out a bit. Trying to do both gives off a “fish out of water” vibe…. I look forward to your progress.
WOW! At times I was scared for your safety! Seems like your trying to do too many things at once, hope you take more time during your learning curve. Looking forward to an action packed video of fish catching fun in the future.
First time out solo on the Sea-Doo especially out by the jetties there’s definitely gonna be some mistakes, glad you made it back safe. Looking forward to the next trip on the Trophy! 👍 Love the channel
30 lb mono on the end of your braid with a uni to uni knot. Small hook #1 or 2 and sharp for sheeps. Idk about trolling a 1oz spoon i bet it just rolls back there. Get a halco xrap130 and go between 11 and 13mph. Port a jetty is tough on a ski. Well freaking done. Crawl up underneath and and make sure the braid isnt wrapped around the impellaer. Its thru the grates. Flashlight and a long serrated knife. You showed some major courage!!!!!! That is scarry alone. Find ski buddies. The rigs right out port a to the right are fun (gping towars bob hall) 1 has nice sharks. Looking forward to more
Thanks for being transparent. No one is perfect, especially when doing something new. Never mind those know-it-all wise guys. They've either never had a bad day or never even tried to do what you are doing. Enjoy your time on the water and stay safe.
Owned one. Sold it two weeks after I bought it. If you are a bass fisherman or you like to fix inland lakes, lakes with structure......you CANNOT own one of these. It's a jet. It sucks in anything and everything in a reasonable path. No way to stand and fish. Too difficult to follow a fish or to stay behind your lure. The trolling feature is useless. It's a gimmick. No matter what Sea-Doo does, in the end, it's a jet ski with a rod holder and a fish finder. Notice that there are no vidz available where owners are putting it through it's paces in a small lake, or in and around laydowns, tall grass, pads, etc? The only vidz I've ever seen have the owner in the middle of a huge body of water.
You'll get the hang of how your most comfortable fishing on that bad boy. Loving the Seadoo made for fishing also. I'd more so cut the engine while fishing once out at the point I want in order to keep line from getting sucked in. I'd also try to be more seated to the side rather than in the riding position if that makes sense. Pretty good for the 1st time out there and you'll get it mastered.
You absolutely need to flush the engine every single time you ride or you will destroy the cooling passages in the engine. Please don’t neglect your ski man. The next owner will appreciate good maintenance.
I always look forward to a Bum video. Awesome show. It could be your hook with the sheep because I had that trouble. Get a hook with a long shank and small bend. Can't wait for more action. I predict you get spooled by a Jack next show!!! ✌️😎
If I still lived there I would start fishing in the flats, and the ship channel, get to know your ski in calm waters with little to no boat traffic. Use smaller non surf rods when you can. Definatley use your anchor system and your pedestal seat. Good luck to you in the future.

I have a new patented product that lets you put a spotlock trolling motor on yours Fishpro safely. Mass production starts very soon. My TH-cam channel is.. One Off Outdoors
Hey bum! Love your content on Facebook and TH-cam. I fish out of Aransas Pass as well. Let me know if you want to link up sometime! I don't have a sea doo, just a flats boat. Curious why the sheepshead were breaking you off so much? Were they running you into the rocks? Or just biting through your line?
Lots of people commenting here that have 0 idea of what they are talking about. I troll offshore 10 miles and you cant achor there. I never turn my engine off because of safety issues. I would try shorter rods for trolling. The setting should be 6mph unless you want wahoo thrn it's 10mph. Once I hook a big king or tuna I stop trolling trolling and put the motor at 0. Yea it's a learning curve but one you can master a few times out. You seem pretty close to shore so at least ur good going out alone..i get nervous by myself that far out but the machine is so damn fun to catch fish off of. I also flush every single time i go regardless if its a day or 2. That salt is a nasty mo fo
Great vid, i just found your channel , I have a seadoo fishpro as well same as yours, i have ride from san jacito river down to kemah and back , i been riding ski al my life from the Caribbean and the florida, now in texas i dont ride as much havent found friends to go out and fish, i would like to ride to a rig and catch some snappers, hit me up i have some tips to tame your ski. and i think your front bumber holder is too far front. looking at my ski, did u measure the mounts per the sea doo install guide? algo u shoud check the wear ring on the pump for damages since the spoon must gotten stuck at it when it got suck by the pump. willing to see more vid u gainned a sub.
why would you title this Seadoo left you stranded when it was you who made the mistake? I mean we all make mistakes but it wasn't the jetski that failed
Seems like when you were trolling with the spoon, you were going too fast. See about a minn kota spot lock trolling motor if they make those for pwc's.
It won't set at 1 mph. Just go idle speed and that's the speed u want. Sometimes even kick it out of gear and back in a few times to slow your roll. I catch many fish trolling on my seadoo.
Man brother be prepared when you run into a monster fish that bites your hook while your out there you will be rocked and possibly fall off due to inexperience. It’s very tough to fight big fish whilst on the jet ski but keep us posted and most importantly safety first bro
@@texasbeachbums when that day comes you need to sit with both legs facing right or left (perpendicular to the ski) you can’t fight big fish while sitting the way you were bro
Interesting that you never rent a vessel and make a determination on that experience before spending a lot of money. I recall you did this same thing with the Kayak and the Tent trailer. For what that Sea doo cost you could have purchased a Tracker Grizzly Jon Boat with a covered center console and a platform on the front and back. This is Texas, I cant see anyone using that as an ideal fishing vessel come the dog days of summer with zero shade from the sun. Maybe it will work out for you but as the saying goes a fool and his money are soon parted.
You can add a top to it as well. It's perfect for what I want it for The tent I still have and will be using it first week of April for a camping trip. The Kayak was a bad investment for me but I did get my money back on it. I will be adding the top soon to it and a windshield

Keep it up, buddy! This is great stuff. If people could see behind-the-scenes on my boat, they would wonder if we were brothers.Tight lines!
I guess boat looks like a better choice, not comfortable to fish off jetski
Its fine for me. A lot bigger than it looks in video

How did the seadoo leave you stranded? Cameras aren't the seadoos fault. Looked like user error
Was stranded but did not film it and yes it was my fault...
Well, you learn as you go. Will wait for the surf fishing video. Take care.
No sound on video until the water.
seems to work fine on my end

No need if you're going in freshwater, but in seawater, you definitely need to flush every time.

LOL that would be sweet to get spooled by a Jack ! Thanks for the tip on the hook
Sorry bro, you almost look scared out there! I would get away from those long ass rods, good luck!
Love port A the jetty is unlike any other best destination spot to go to 🙌🙌🙌
I wanted to ask you, do the bumpers not float? I bought a couple recently, but have not tested whether they do float.
Yes they float but when I lost one I did not notice that I left it on so have no idea where it went
If I still lived there I would start fishing in the flats, and the ship channel, get to know your ski in calm waters with little to no boat traffic. Use smaller non surf rods when you can. Definatley use your anchor system and your pedestal seat. Good luck to you in the future.

You were all over the place😅 but its a learning process and your helping people to do just that. Keep up the vids👍
Cool video TBB! Be safe and look forward to your next one.
Thanks
Maybe for your tackle, you could use a tackle box backpack or shoulder bag, easy access. Great video as always. Practice makes perfect
I use 20lb fluorocarbon leader and never have no issues with breakage on sheepshead
I love it because I’m only going fishing in fresh water I’m curious in life expectancy
I live in the area. I have a '23 fishpro that ive only been out on a few times. I would like to go fishing with you sometime if possible.
That's very possible look up my email under the about section here. if you cant find it let me know. I am looking for people to go out with
Drift sock instead of anchor ?
Thanks I'll look into that

do they make a trolling motor with spotlock for that thing? would make your life so much easier
