Question Rooster Tails
Has anyone try the Cambells Soup Can trick? Towing soup can behind the boat to cause a rooster tail!

    Default Rooster Tail
    Saw this article on another boat site. Some tried doing it with P.V.C. pipe. Bigger opening in front then made smaller at a 45 for pressure. String tied at 2 and 10 o'clock.

    You guys have to be kidding me. I have never heard of anything like this before. I would love to have one when getting it down the lake. Does it work?
