Default PSA: jetskiers on the Passaic last night...

Whomever you are, next time I hope you hit a log hidden just below the surface. You'll go flying and smack your head against the concrete bridge abutment. Whatever occurs as a result of that impact would be deserved and fitting punishment for your stupid, careless and selfish behavior.

Thank you.

This has been a public service announcment from buzz.

lol - what happened?

I haven't had too many problems with jet skiers on that river.
The majority of them slow down when they see my kayak. I suppose they don't want to crash into me any more than I want to be crashed into.

It amazes me how those guys have the 'nads to fly through areas I KNOW are a foot deep. They'll get theirs eventually...

Is it having balls or lacking brains that's really at work here?

Long story short, they passed by several times sending waves crashing to shore and basically ruining the evening for fishing. 7 fish(bass/pike) before/none after. This was in a section I can walk across its so low right now. I tell you some members of our human race really do embarrass us with their stupidity, selfishness, laziness and rudeness. Just don't get it. Being reckless is one thing, but doing it and affecting others is intolerable. I guess being a dick is in these days.

6 oz diamond jigs with treble hooks should be the lure of choice for fishing the Passaic River.

I believe I seen the very 2 jet skiers the one day I checked out the river around 2 bridges. I was pretty surprised to see them fly through like they did that day. I have a bit of a short temper, had I been fishing that day and they made a second pass like the first, my lure would have intercepted their paths. I have no tolerance for asshats.

i don't own a jet ski, but these comments don't really make sense to me. jet skis are legal to run in a river.

sure, the guy's an ass if he deliberately makes multiples passes right in front of you, but if they're just passing through... suck it up.

it's no different from water skiiers on lake hopatcong, cigarette boats on raritan bay, or pleasure kayaks on splitrock res... all just part of the game of fishing.
