    Sounds like good news for fishermen. Must be hard to enjoy a PWC if you can't pass! Tom

    I don't think it will do much good. There aren't enough police to go around . Good to have it on the books, hopefully some of the offenders will get stung, but you'll still see it happening alot.

    Boy, this would be a good law for Pa...But like you say Bob, there aren't enough officers to enforce it.   But it's a start!

    Since this boating law has been in force. Has anyone heard of any which recieved a citation. I believe its a complete joke. Until the DNR force's some type of on-line boating course. This law was just a waste. This last weekend we had a pwc pass full throttle with 3 on board just 50ft away. I wish I had AB in the boat LOL

    You don't need the baitcaster. Just pick out a medium action spinning reel, and we'll go wacky wormin. I've been spending my time on Rock doing that.

    Isn't there a mandadory training class for PWC's in Wisc?

    There was a Los Angeles cop on a Jetski out in Calif. a few years ago that was on a reservoir in central Cali that hit and killed a swimmer near the shore.

    He had been drinkiing....but they eventually caught up with him...and needless to say...is now in prison.

    "If you were born after 1988, you're required to complete a boating safety course to legally operate a motorized boat or personal watercraft (PWC)." Taking a class doesn't make you less of a idiot though. It only TEACHES you HOW to behave, it doesn't MAKE you behave.
    Set the hook and say "I might be in trouble!"

    3 in ONE cast! Now AB....I would love to have that type of competition with you....couldn't agree more

    Gotta get the angle right for it to glance off the sides of 3 empty heads
