    Seadoo FishPro

    Ucluelet Fishing has been pretty decent, Looking forward to getting the Seadoo FishPro out, lots of casting hopefully another hali and really keen to try cut-plugging tight to the kelp beds. I've never been super stoked on trolling off this thing (got a boat for that with DR's etc..) but if cut...

    Highway 4 opens to two-way traffic as Kennedy Lake Project wraps up

    Living in Ukee for the last for the last 8 years glad to see this complete. That "company" was like a girlfriend that would never leave. I thought about getting Ukee and Tofino together to make a mixed tape and give them back all their stuff ha ha. Girl don't go away mad, just go away!

    Seadoo FishPro

    I followed a build on you-tube, formed & tig welded a holder that mounts the AGM battery under the back deck. Wired in parallel to increase capacity. We also make sure to have the lithium Ion jump kit charged up and stowed on board. Because I'm spin casting with the engine off...

    Seadoo FishPro

    The fuel tank is large 18.5 gallons pretty much impossible to kill a tank in one day especially if you are fishing lots. They also have engine modes from Sport, Eco, Troll etc so if you wanted to conserve fuel they'll go a long ways. I recommend a lithium Ion jump kit, the engine management...

    Seadoo FishPro

    Morn'in gents, I usually use a large spin casting set up with a bunch of 2 or 3 oz jigs, feels like you're casting 100 yards with braided line ha ha. I'll cast out let the jig drop/flutter through the bait. Kill the engine listen to tunes and throw a bunch of casts. If it's not happening rip...

    Seadoo FishPro

    If you shop around decent units are $19~low $22K used not sure about new, they were booking 12 month wait lists for new not that long ago. I feel with regular maint they should have a long service life, closed loop fresh water cooled, naturally aspirated (the 170 HP model).

    Seadoo FishPro

    I was wondering how the heck you'd set this up looks great! How well does it track, if you let go of the bars and pulling the cannon ball reeling in does it want to fall off tack pretty bad or do you lock the steering somehow?

    Seadoo FishPro

    Right on Nice Chinook! I haven't played around the the troll mode or down riggers, just been using big spin casting set up with braided line / Fluorocarbon leader. Are you fishing from the Island or off the Van side somewhere?

    Seadoo FishPro

    Good Morning River boy, Yes and no, if you're just cruising with the tunes on and not really white capping out you can. I was off shore on a big swell / no chop day doing 80~90km jumping the tops of the swell stayed dry! It's the sharp cornering, and bigger steep chop that gets you soaked...

    Seals gorging themselves on a school of fry in Victoria Harbour April 17, 2021

    I was involved in a project to "cull" some problem seals (legally with DFO), they were lining up under bridges at night, that have street lamps and clobbering the out migrating smolts. Basically lined up mouths open as the smolts swam into the shadow line caused by the street lamps. It was...

    Yamaha F150 lower unit

    Hey folks, I have a Yamaha 2004 F150 and the gear chatter going into reverse seems to be getting slowly worse. (it's not the cable I does the same shifting by hand right at the block) I've had this engine since 2005 so no complaints and it does still go into reverse, this tells me the engine is...
