[QUOTE="bnt5, post: 366534, member: 13957"] Well I have gotten my jetjon to the testing phase and am now speeding up and down the local rivers trying to figure the interior layout while doing a little fishing here and there. Since there are very few fishing jet boats around this area, I have never had to deal with shore anglers and boats wanting to share the same water. Most of the places I will be running, there are mainly kayaks and canoes and the occasional wade fisherman in smaller rivers with not much room for maneuvering or slowing down due to shallow water crossings. I would really like to keep the amount of curse words or fishing lead thrown in my direction to a bare minimum so what do you guys do on narrow rivers to keep the peace? This past weekend I ran a shallow river and came to a big riffle with a guy fly fishing, thankfully the water was deep enough downstream that I could slow down and wait for him to get done casting and leave the area before I blasted up the chute and through the shallows, the rest of the run was pretty much shore anglers gawking at my 16 ft bundle of aluminum two stroke fun and waving as I flew by doing 25mph in 8" of water..what an experience that was for the first time!!! I got pretty good as cutting the motor without sucking up rocks before coming to a hole I wanted to fish, hopefully that won't mess my motor up. :) [/QUOTE]
