- 1st time back in the saddle after tuna for a while - the gaff work certainly shows i'm out of practice. was a great day 35 miles offshore getting pulled around be these Oregon coast Albacore.
You're brave! I know guys that won't go far enough to lose sight of land without two engines! Nice catch!
Kept waitin for a fourteen foot bull shark to come up with the tuna .
Having radio contact would put me at ease doing this. By myself I'd be a bit worried.
JoeCnNd we run in groups of 3-5 skis, all fishing within a couple miles of each other until we find fish, then move in closer
Brother I recommend you get yourself a bat so you don’t have to worry about getting pelted w your own ice when the sob gets in the chest. Other than that just work on gettin the gaff under the fish and lift, the gaff will do its job
Certainly Extreme fishing! Amazing set up you have, extra fuel tank, cooler, rod holders, fishfinder and whatever else. Please show your outfit and tell us what all you did to it. Thanks for sharing.
victor van dyke check out my channel, & subscribe I have a setup video
You are absolutely nuts and awesome at the same time! Great Video!
Michael Murphy 🍻
After u hit the 1st one with the gaff, I started wondering when “The Meg” was coming to visit you!
wraleen lol!
There is nothing easy about getting a good gaff in those things even if you aren’t the one fighting the fish. I’m impressed.
Jamison Lowe thanks! I try pretty hard to get head shots and not put holes in the fillets
3:12 tuna+cooler=no ice
Lmao raining ice cubes
I thought it was some fancy special effects at first 🤦🏼♂️
Loooool
Making room for his friends 😂
That first gaff was like Texas chain saw massacre
Ray Soul 😂
and the 4th? Fucking EYEBALL came off hahaa sheesh! 6:17
You trust jet skis a lot. Great day fishing!
Insane loved every minute of that video
Another fishing craze becoming popular. You sure found the honey hole. Any encounters of sharks being a menace at 35 miles out?!!?
Anastacio Herrera we’ll typically see a few blue sharks every trip, rarely do they become a problem.
35 miles?!!!
I will see you when you get back!!!
Muata Morris-omowale BEST COMMENT EVER!
wraleen why thank you!
My dream is to go tuna fishing ... after watching you other vido now I wan jetski too..
Favorite part was the ice flying everywhere haha
That is straight gangsta! Lol... on Jet skis that far off shore.... Big Kahuna Balls!!! You slayed those Tunas!!! Nice work!!!
u guys are nuts... i have a 30ft grady and am chicken shit about going that far, but i do admire your guts.
You guys rock,Bud. One of these days I'm gonna get a ski!
yonderdan it’s the only way to go!
Bringing them in on a fishing pole is exhausting. Do you hand line any of your fish?
john deaton Na, I’ve never enjoyed hand lining, rod & reel fight is way more fun for me.
That tuna could shave ice like a snowcone machine
Wow, show your technic that's the beauty of watching and do some catch and cook. Nice catch
Dude that was awesome..Crazy bad ass tuna fisherman.
An ice cooler full of Tuna, well deserved.
Looks like crazy fun. I have been thinking a fishing setup like yours would be very fun in the lakes around where I live.
Looks like so much fun... nice!
If you get a gaff with a smaller hook, you will have an easier time sinking it into fish that size. Also, if you pop open an artery in the gills or slice the tail to bleed them out when you first catch them, it will improve the quality of the meat you end up with. Nice job out there. You certainly know how to find them & hook them.
Jim A For sure! They all got bled before I locked the cooler down again, just edited it out of the video for length
Wow, you're really getting amongst them, well done.👍
I love the Idea of tuna and jet ski but you need to set up one bleed tube so the fish can bleed out while you are fishing great video and hey the gaff work got em in the cooler...
Magwa Magwa 😂, thanks! I’ve been bleeding them in the cooler, keeps the sharks from coming around
PNW Jetski Fishing that was my thought as well and then maybe drain it out when your heading g back to shore cruising at 30mph
oh, and sharpen that damn gaff
So is there money to be made taking your tuna catch back to shore?
I strongly recommend you invest in a decent definitive Jet Ski Gaff. This old traditional shaped head is a disaster....Look at the Rusler Jet Ski Gaffs with it's diamond shaped head and machine milled three way cutting edge point...All stainless steel! You will never miss again either from above or below the target...Oh! and made in New Zealand.....where quality still means something !! I could also add the investment of not a bat but the refinements and effectiveness of an IKI Tool!
I'm a kayak fisherman and I'm about to jump into the jetski fishing world, since you have more experience then me what 3 seater you recommended me to look into?
I have my eyes on de seadoo fish pro.
Any help will help.. tks
KAYAK FISHING ZONE check out the blog section of the pnw Jetski Fishing website, I have an article about this. The fishpro is a pretty sweet setup, if you’re looking for something ready to go outa the box. If you’re looking at doing custom rigging, the Yamaha FXHO or Kawasaki ultra LX are my preference. Stability on the fishpro can’t be beat without adding pods or floatation collars to the other models, which is nice
Do you guys have still go out of the PNW ports (assuming WA) with your PWC's? I'm getting ready to to buy a Seadoo Fishpro Sport and I'd like to have some other people to go out with for safety reasons.
Most of us are out of northern Oregon. And I still get out, just haven’t posted any videos in a while. If you’re on FB, search for the PNW Jetski Fishing group, several active people on there
@@PNWJetskiFishingLLC thanks! I was hoping there was an online community for this.
Awesome video. Nice tuna
Great video if you don't mind can I see a close up picture of your jetski setup. I am very interested on how I can set my jet ski to go that far out.
Juan George check out the fishing jetski setup video on my channel, I explain it pretty well there
What type of hand radio u r using??
Just wondering if you ever bleed your fish when you catch them and if you could possibly show us your jet ski set up??? I’d love to go out for tuna on my ski one day.
Great video
All my fish get bled before i move on, i typically just edit it out. check out my channel for the video where i go through my setup - just ask if you have more questions.
That’s awesome! Great vid! 👍🏻😎
Fantastic video... Keep at it.
what the plan when and it you flip the ski over from a rouge wave ? will it flip back easy with all the extra weight on top which will be on the bottom ?
Boy y u be hitting them tuners with the gaff without sticking them first???
35 miles out fishing on a wave runner? A bit too close to Jaws for me🤣
That's a Kawasaki!
What happens if you catch a Tuna that's too big/strong for you? Do you have to cut your line?
Better than wicked Tuna!
What’s the visibility off the PNW coast like for the spearo?
Am considering relocating to Seattle for life but the idea of no spearfishing is demoralising 😂
Captured by Beasley a handful of the jetski crowd up here do some diving...I wouldn’t set your expectations very high.
When that fish was flopping around in the cooler from 3:15 to 3:20 is the funniest shit I ever seen in a while. Had me rolling. It’s was flingin ice cubes around and stuff.
Swift Fishin lol, thanks! I was getting pelted by them the whole time till I got ahold of it’s tail again.
that was funny, the other funny thing was going 35 miles and bringing a cooler big enough for one fish lol
So lucky! Nice catch
why u dont use a snall boat instead of the jjetski ?
So, what happens if you get a fast flapper fapper that is too big for your cooler?
DrZoo gotta get creative, check out the halibut video on the channel, 65lb halibut doesn’t fit
Damn bro on a jet ski though much respect little too crazy for me but much respect to you too
My wife was just talking about fishing from our Sea Doo's last night. I mainly fish for Salmon and Steelhead and live in the Kelso Longview area. I do small river fishing from my Clack, but I am really thinking about trolling for springers this year on the ski. would love to go as a group for some Tuna this year if possible, going solo just sounds scary. Also who makes your rod holder set ups?
William Pellant I’m just across the river in Clatskanie. The rear bag assembly we sell, and all the custom aluminum work is done by Aluminum Works by JD in St Helens. Join our FB group pnw Jetski Fishing, we organize our trips on there
I just joined the group. Will do messages on the FB page. Dang you are close. I hope to do some building this winter so I can get some practice in with the ski set up during Springer season.
Looks like fun
100000 views and 800 likes? Come on guys
Awesome. Thank you
Looks like fun!
u recked that tunas eye with the gaf lol
Just curious, couldn't you buy a decent boat for the same $ that ski cost after all the mods?
Matt Akridge I’m in it for about the cost of a motor on a boat that gets in the same water...and this is way more fun
@@PNWJetskiFishingLLC different strokes different folks I guess..
Nice. Like the extra tank
with all the fish blood and the splashed , I think he was inviting the White Shark to come after him...hehehehe
Thumbs up from Toledo, OH. I've thought about adding a towable trailer, kinda like what you have the cooler on. Is that cooler sitting on some type of water rescue board? Are you able to give details on the brand and model and also how it is attached to the Jetski? Thanks! Cool video. It looks cold up there!
Loren P. I’m using the liquid shredder...I can say from this trip that 8 tuna in an ice slurry was too much weight, & I had to change positions of the cooler & aux gas tank on the water
how much stuff have you dropped and lost
Stephen Lavoie 😩😩😩 A net, rod/reel with fish attached, gaff, pliers, & 2 boxes of lures before I got the storage system figured out on something that would work. Since then only a dive knife that I forgot was in my hands 🙄
@@PNWJetskiFishingLLC sure looks like fun and to be able to get out there in a hurry is a bonus. great video
Ha! Dad and I conversed about our sunglasses. Glass vs plastic lenses. He said "yeah I got the plastic for maybe that split second I might be able to save them when I drop them" I said, "yeah it's a real sad feeling that split second you reach down to save them from sinking and you miss them and get to watch them go down till they dissappear. The one sad thing about blue water, you get to watch your stuff go bye bye."
What's the worst that could happen?
Holding a rod fighting a fish & trying gaff it all at the same time is no easy task
That’s the truth!!
Is he just using an an chovy hooked nose and tail? That's what it looks like in the shot.. im an Albie chaser myself and that's one I have not seen before for trolling.
@@PNWJetskiFishingLLC ok got ya, I have seen that! Good job! I have gone 60 miles in my 16' arema to get them! Last year was good! I had 25 fish alone by noon. And I got one over 40lbs, so I can't wait for this year! Great video 👍
@@PNWJetskiFishingLLC slow troll or 7 knot troll?
Sam Shotgun 4-5mph
@@PNWJetskiFishingLLC ok cool so more like plug speed. Thanks for the heads up!
@@PNWJetskiFishingLLC I'm sure you know now, but if you get the gaff in one smooth lifting technique it punches right through. You don't really have to hit it like a baseball bat, that is why you are tearing them up and all. Good on ya though 👍👍 maybe I will see you on the water someday!
What was the jet ski u were on?
Robby Gilliam I run a Kawasaki Ultra LX
What happens if both engines stop working will the coast guard be able to help? Pretty new to boating.
Peter O'Neil only 1 engine on these...that’s why we run out in groups, can tow each other if needed
Your a Badass man!
Dude this is amazing. You already out there fishing this year?
NW Fishing Secrets I missed the 1st window for tuna last weekend. Been out several times on rockfish though. Waiting on the blue water to get pushed in a little closer
@@PNWJetskiFishingLLC Sick man, do you have an IG or something where you're still posting? Would love to follow. Way more interesting than watching fish get caught off of charter boats. Looking to get into offshore fishing 🤙
NW Fishing Secrets @pnw_jetski_fishing on IG. It’s been a slow year for me for getting available time to get out - hopefully that turns around soon
Awesome vid. Good job!
Why dont you bleed it and kill it before putting in a cooler?
Alexei Pavlov the cooler is where I bleed & kill it, not a lot of room to work with on a ski.
Badass video, 👍
Can you show us you offshore fuel solution
David Quintero check out the jetski setup video on my channel, i go into detail on it there
wow that’s nice set up.
I think someone recently died far off shore they were training for some endurance event ? I jet ski every month but ain’t going out there good luck glad you have a radio
Edit* I commented before I saw the fish. Nevermind. I get it now.
omg, by yourself on a jetski 35 miles out ?!?! wow exciting tho
CR2504life lol, there were a few of us out there, just spread out a ways to cover more ground
@@PNWJetskiFishingLLC cool
I'm in BC Canada, (Victoria).
We have Albacore offshore I believe. Same as your catching ?
Dude what would you do if your jet ski doesn't start?
Joel Peralta same thing a boat would. Try to fix it, if that doesn’t work, tow it.
@@PNWJetskiFishingLLC you're 30 miles out though. You just start waving other boats down to tow you?
Joel Peralta I won’t go that far out in groups less than 3 (typically 3-5). Each of us have VHF radios (fixed 25w units & handheld 6-8w), i always have a satellite rescue beacon on my life vest. We try to be self sufficient as possible in bad situations.
Live in the Portland area..just ordered a sea-doo fish pro....if you are ever in need of a wing man.
This was badass
You’re badass. Stay safe.
I wish I was able to this in California
what kind of clothing do you use to fish in the jetski. including shoes. i just got a jetski and looking fir waterproof clothing recommendations for fishing jetski
Pastor General Brother Fernando dry suit with layered Polly pro for warmth. I use the USIA Pro rafter suit, made here in the northwest
PNW Jetski Fishing LLC thank you
straight slayin em
Nice work! When I was younger we used to seek out small craft advisory days on the Puget Sound to take our stand up jet skis in. On calm days we would chase freighters to jump the bug waves. So I imagine you guys are quite skilled in big water. I am curious what's the worst you've been thru? What about bar crossings?
wedocq crossing the Columbia River bar, was unrestricted when I started, but the coast guard put a 26’ restriction on it while I was crossing...that was a bit intense, the CR bar is no joke
What is a good way to attach a rod holder or two to a jet ski? Thanks.
Mason Gregory easiest way for a casual user is to combine the rod holder with the cooler or kill bag. My setup video shows some options for that. Also the website, pnwjetskifishing.com
@@PNWJetskiFishingLLC Thank you, your website and video were very helpful.
Had no idea this is a thing!!!
Der.Stativ it’s the only way to go!! check out pnwjetskifishing.com
Great video!!!! The new fish pro from sea doo caught your eye yet?
Frank Hawkins thanks! I’ve been keeping an eye on it. Pretty cool a company is building a ski for fishing!...but seadoo skis don’t fit me well.
@@PNWJetskiFishingLLC I completely understand, it's all about preference. I have a 2004 sea doo gtx 185 hp, thankfully I've been super lucky with it! Lol
Lol he kicked all your ice out bud
Dang. You ain't no chicken!!
The jealousy from the radio makes me wanna turn off the radio. “Tuna cocaine..hee hee”. Such a terrible fake laugh every time.
3:12 hahahahha
Don’t gaff it...bite it !!!
Great videos. I am new to this and was wondering when you guys start going out in the year?
Jeremy Russell thanks! We’ll go a couple times in the winter for rockfish. Typically start regular trips around April, salmon (season dependent) & tuna in the summer through fall
Join our FB group, we do a fair amount of trip coordinating there...will start up in the spring facebook.com/groups/188243325219265/
Awesome thanks for the info. I'll definitely check out the Facebook page. Hopefully I'll run into you fishing. FISH ON!
I wanna go. just broke in my fish pro
Think you need a bigger cooler for all them fish bro
One day I hope I'm this fuckin cool
A blood trail thick enough for a shark to follow... Yikes
John Holmes and they do, typically just small blue sharks though
@@PNWJetskiFishingLLC
Do you ever have issues where the "wildlife" exceeds your skis ability? I'm interested in trying this form of fishing but I'm somewhat apprehensive because of the sharks i see regularly.
John Holmes for the most part they leave you alone. We see them fairly often tuna fishing, and have only seen 1 nearshore (though I’m sure there’s been more close by, just the water is too murky to know)
@@PNWJetskiFishingLLC Thanks for letting me know. I wouldn't call my apprehension a fear but it's a healthy respect for the apex predator of the sea. That's why i keep asking. I think I should start picking out a runner that I would feel comfortable with. I actually designed and built a fighting chair for a friend's runner. I'll have to make another
I guest better you using that net to lift the tuna, to avoid tuna blood from sharky coming.stay save my man
Seems dangerous.Fish splashing and lots of blood in the water.l
sam mich just don’t hangout in one area too long. Odds are you’ll only run into smaller blue sharks...but there are big makos and threshers out there
If a shark comes throw him one of the fishes while you’re plugging in your kill switch
Little too extreme for me.
