When that pleasureboater comes racing buy, you would like to...

but I would have to vote for what I've had many bass fishers (w/ bite sized baits) and some disrespectful muskie fishers have done to me. Nothing like 2 70 year old guys casting 10 inch believers 1 foot from my boat.

You left off the obvious.... a small, tactical nuclear warhead would be perfect...perferably a neutron weapon so there is no residual radiation and no harm to the boat (which you can then claim for salvage). Just let the suckers get about 1/2mile away and poof, they're Kentucky Fried Chicken.

It's not a problem with pleasure boaters but those jet skiers really get to me. Why can't they go buzz some cabin cruiser and leave ne alone. But this year I've found that I can really fling an Eppinger spoon a long way out to nail those stupid boaters. The Jake has too much wind resistance and calculating how much lead you need to hit a jet ski zooming around you is a chore. What I really need is a spud gun mounted on my boat.

I know I tried to hit one this summer! We were fishing on a lake where after 10am it seemed to me that the entire fleet of The Netherlands appeared. We got showers all day long by little raskals who had not found a better occupation than to speed up to our boat in their little speedboats and to turn just beside it with a large wave clashing into the side of our boat as a result. At the end of the day we motored below a waterpipe that hung over a canal that entered that lake and some kids were jumping next to our boat from above the canal. If I wasn't so levelminded, I would have cast a big nilsmaster towards them! The same to all those waterskieing people who think that fishermen like to imitate wild river-rafters all day on the waves they create by quickly slowing down and rapidly turning in front or just behind our boat when they see us: consider yourselves warned!! I've got my nilsmaster right beside me at all times, ready to be fired away!

If I can hit you with my furthest casting daredevil, your too cl...ER deserve to have your face removed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[happy hooker]

bait them!!!!!! alot of these guys do it on purpose. park on a saddle between two islands tie a large rope to one island and strech it across to the other. put a maniquin in your boat swim to shore, when he comes zippin through yank on the rope,,presto instant human slinng shot,,you have to clear the windshield though

I like their distance, accuracy and castability.

I'm having a replica made of a 200# Jet Skier I caught on Wissota using a Jackpot. Any color/pattern is highly effective! HA!

I wish I had the power to place sand bars and rock reefs anywhere in the lake in a split second. That way when they come flying by they would beach the boat and go sailing through the air and all us muskie fisherpeople could just sit back and laugh.

Popps hit a pontoon boat on waubesa this spring that decided to run where we were casting as opposed to around us. I had plenty of near hits this year hoping to get a message across. I too keep a rod rigged with a glider of some sort which will cast a mile.


It would be fun some time to cut up a broomstick handle in 6" lengths and put a screw eye in it and wire line troll it 300ft. behind my boat on the fox chain on a busy weekend.

My small fuzzy duzzit has come into contact with one boat so far, and made a very good impression:) It also has unbelievable casting distance, give one a try.

We had a problem with a few sea-doos at my grandparents cottage. They would come in within 20' of the dock and swim area and do 360's until all the boats at our dock were bangin into each other. Solution, take ballons stuff them with old mono line blow them up and submerse them just below the surface. Soon as the jet sucks it in they are done, then ya can watch to make sure they don't throw the line in the water as they spend 2 hours digging it out

Hooker has the plan! Watched 2 basser dummies zoom down the lake one night + clip the end of 1 of 3 islands my brother + I were fishing.....they were about 50 yards away before they saw us + tore their boat up good.......
