Brooksie , y'alls set ups are like jewelry, they are of the hook bro !!! Love watching you and the gang catcjing these wonderful fish and they way you do it is so extreme too.
Thank you for your knowledge sharing. Going thru the rod thing at present got a couple Stella's on top end shimano rods. Not working out. Will look into the rods u mention. Thanks
Brooksy great vid as always. Like most fishos prob ain't keen on sharing locations, but maybe a vid on what you look for in spots for different fish. Obviously there is a lot of fishing with no fish but some hints and tips to look for would be good for us starting out in big land based fishing. Cheers bud
You and your boys vids are sick ive learnt heaps thanks heaps 👍 could you guys do a few "how to vids" like chucking stick baits, plastics, poppers or any tips cheers
Love the vids Brooksy. The insight is awesome for rookie GT chasers. It would be sick if you could do some vids or give some more insight on how to work the different lures and how you work the rod to get different action. Keep up the awesome work mate
Un vídeo increíble lleno de fundamento para cualquier pescador que quiera tener una aventura de pesca extrema. Me quedo con todos los consejos, llenos de equilibrio, y espero ponerlos pronto en práctica. Saludos y buena pesca!
Big fan for the vids you guys do. What speeds are your reels. And how does the Zenaq Tobizo match up to the Ripper fishers. Used the Zenaq Fokeeto for spainish macks and didn't find it to be really fantastic. Wonder if the Tobizo is a big upgrade in performance.
Dang you clean up pretty well. Used to seeing the wasted, disheveled persona, sort of like a serial killer on holiday. Should have morphed the vid into a catch and cook of the unsuspecting female.
Brookysssssssyyyyy. I'm studying marine science all my projects and presentations are G- barrier reef based - I fished my way round OZ from Darwin to Townsville then melbs to perth!! love the vids. you guys are legends. Really would love to big big with you lads. Love from scotland (give me a thumbs up it motivates me to peruse my career of economical green energy after working in drilling in the oil industry for 4 years in Scotland) I can relate so heavily to land based fishing like you guys do. I spent over 2 months almost every night just to get my Cobia in Darwin---around 8KG and it was PSYCHO
The gear you use is precise mate but back here in chennai (India) people are popping using hand line 0. 8-0.10 Mono and landed some 20kg 30kg beast... The timber's holding line is bursting...thats really psyco one day u ought to see it..
Cool vid, nice info. Unfortunately we don't have the tools you use here in the Caribbean, and it's really hard to get the good stuff down here. Cheers from Barbados mate. Keep up the good work
Good channel! I'm always looking for products as a distributor (on a small level) to sell here in Indiana USA. Are "Askhuey" sunglasses still made there? I can't seem to get a hold of them. Thanks.
Hello, I have an really importante questions for you, because I watched on the video you have the three rods is Zenaq Tobizo; Which one will you recommend me for coast and boat? Because I really want a next level for tunas and I am thinking to buy new heavy equipment for that. Tobizo TC80-200G with Daiwa Saltiga 14000 XH? 8 length. Tobizo TC83-150G with Daiwa Saltiga 14000 XH? 8’3 length. Do you know exactly the weight of the both rods? Thank you 👏🏼
Brooksy do you use the tobizo TC80-50g at home off the rocks or do you prefer something longer? I'm tore between that rod and the Muthos mid game 9'6. What do you recommend?
Definately wana save up for a tabizo, gona take me a while, $1200 nz, i fish from rocks for kingfish on banks peninsula with a Shakespear uglystick Black Tiger 1484-002 2.1m/ 7 ft, this rod cost me $140 nz, and has landed a 30kg king fish with a Diawa emcast plus fishing real- this is old gear tho- more than 10 years- but there are some good cheaper options for people on a tight budget... I pay a mortgage on a solo tradie income, but will be saving for this set up... I'm frothin to get to the barrier one day and land a big gt! love your guys videos, thanks for the tips Jonny1
Mate, great tips and thanks for sharing. What pound leader are you running on that light tobizo PE4 setup? Sick setups. Thanks mate, really glad I came across your vids. Happy fishing!
Jonny thanks heaps for that mate. One of the best straightforward tackle talks. When you do fish for “normal” fish do you run a swivel on your lures? Including on lures with bibs?
Hey Brooksy, could you make a similar video where you're showing us your smaller lures for when you're fishing from the surf for reef fish or just smaller fish... I think that you should do videos where you go for surf fishing mostly - I know it's not as exciting or intense as GT's but for a lot of people smaller fish are attainable goals - big fish are really hard to come by, lol
yeah I can do that for sure... but I disagree about the big fish being hard to come by... kinda feels like ur admitting defeat before u have started haha! if ur willing to go that bit further and put in the time there is all the big fish in the world waiting for ya! go get them mate!
Jonny Brooks Fishing Please make this video. Can you also try some surf fishing for us? I know its not your favorite thing but it would be good to see because not everyone braves the rocks.
What length is your leader for GT popping mate? How many times around the spool? I'm off to Oman in February to shoot some videos, any suggestions or tips would be greatly appreciated. I will be booking up with No Boundaries. Cheers!
Nice to get the low down on the gear! Liked the glasses, what was the make and model? Electric fishing? They seemed to have boatloads of models but couldn't spot the ones you had cheers
Brooksy can you run us through your leader to mainline set up in the next vid. I'm guessing you use the FG knot if so do you tie the while fishing? I tie them at home before going out but can't tie them well enough while standing on rocks with the wind blowing
nice video, but two things: a 18000 stella(or new Saltiga) with a 20000 spool is a 20000 cause the spool is the only difference. The other thing what is more important: you can use extreme heavy drag and even pump against 20-30kg(depending on the person) with every rod no matter how it works cause you don't have to use the rod, jusz a rod to line angle around 180 degree, of course you have to cast far enough, without getting tired but for fighting it's not nessesary, I tried it with a
Where do you get your gear from? (rod reel line) recently watched a vid where a supplier was mentioned... I need new gear aye but have very little money
Sick video Brooksy, really informative. After watching Briggsy video talking about your tally, I'm surprised you didn't go up and drop a line next to the hot chick.
Sick video bra, gunna have to sus out a new rod for bigger shit so will have to have a sus at zenaq. How do you clean your reels after your seshs would be a good vlog as ive heard so many ways from different people. Keep the vids coming bro always frothin when i get a notification that you've dropped a new video. YEEEEW 🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙
yeh man they definitely make good rods! I usually just rinse with fresh what with drag tight and not a high pressure spray, just drizzle the water over the reel. loosen drag right off after. and get serviced every few months!
great upload; cheers Brooksy! Quick question: how do you feel the switch from 10' Defi Muthos to 8' Tobizo for land based game? How do you see the difference in rod length?
hey mate, I honestly don't really notice it that much... both have their place. I think the shorter rod for GT fishing is a must, more power and a lot easier on ur body. almost tuna time again so will definitely be getting the muthos out again.. light lures, and a lot of waves require a longer rod for sure.
Do you guys think that shimano purposely made it that you can put a 20k spool on a 18k reel or it’s coincidence that it fits.. also does the line roller part of the bail not rub on spool?
Hey Brooksy, rod question after a bit of a Morningtide and co viewing blitz . You used to go with much longer rods off the bricks, Zanak Defi Muthos 10 footer etc., but now about 8 foot. Is that because you've moved more towards targeting GTs rather than tuna etc, and are interested more in power rather than casting distance?
Hi Brooksy, I just subscribed to your channel,I'm also a Brigsy and Carvy follower. I'm just getting into this kind of fishing for Gts and other big fish in general. I bought a Daiwa Spartan 80- 5-8 a couple of weeks ago, what do you think about it? Can I have your opinion please?because I saw your heavy set up and I'm worried that mine it's not enough 🥺🤔🤔🤔thanks for your reply in advance bye bye 😃🤙🤙💪💪
I think I have mentioned this before Brooksy but I will say it again you have to learn to wind with your left hand and fight the fish with your strongest arm which looks to me to be your right NO CHANGING HANDS at 4.11 is a perfect example of where I am coming from
It seems the “what worked” didn’t happen after each trip. PLEASE add a “what worked” part 2 to your trips. We need to learn! Awesome vids every time, keep them coming. Yeeman!
What kind of action does the 150 and 200 Tobizo have? I got a Ripple that I thought would be able to work poppers but it just doesn't. Way too soft at the tip. Can hardly work a 45g Chuggy. Do the Tobizos have a good solid stiff tip?
When packing down do you dose your splits and hooks with inox/lanox. Keeps mine from rusting and doesn’t put fish off biting from my experience and keeps my hooks fresh and sharp no rust
good point mate.defintely the smart thing to do. I usually soak all my lures and hooks in a bucket of water with a bit of detergent or something then hang them to dry. inox probably the better option though. nice one
Jonny Brooks Fishing I do my reels with inox every 5 or 5 trips in the salt and have never had issues with corrosion plus it’s safe for plastics and braid, never had line failure from using it
When are you guys gonna have more of the morning tide lures in and maybe make another video for the knots you tie and how to tie them, I'm trying to learn the fg knot
Brooksie , y'alls set ups are like jewelry, they are of the hook bro !!! Love watching you and the gang catcjing these wonderful fish and they way you do it is so extreme too.
Great vid. Thanks for putting the time into making it. I look forward to the next installment.
Jonny. Thanks for the awesome video mate. i recently sign up to fishflicks and loving all your videos. keep up the good work!
awesome video lol always cool to see wat other fishos use for their everyday fishing trips.
nice video brooksy! always interesting seeing what outfits others bring to the ledge
Handy video brooksy. Your a bloody legend.
Thank you for your knowledge sharing. Going thru the rod thing at present got a couple Stella's on top end shimano rods. Not working out. Will look into the rods u mention. Thanks
Excellent review. I learned so much out of this. Thanks for sharing...
Thank you Jonny☺ keep it up man! im inspired by your videos and now started using artificial lures.
Brooksy great vid as always. Like most fishos prob ain't keen on sharing locations, but maybe a vid on what you look for in spots for different fish. Obviously there is a lot of fishing with no fish but some hints and tips to look for would be good for us starting out in big land based fishing. Cheers bud
Love the vid like always bud. Keep living the dream for us all ledgend
Do a video what you need to bring on a trip.(food,cooler,camping gear,cost,clothing etc..)
And it helps when one doesn’t spill his gear onto the busy highway ;~)
Great videos man, keep em coming!
You should definitely hit the rest of the boys up to make a same type of video!
Good on ya mate love the work keep it up
Awsome vid Brookzy!! Kila for sharing your weapons bro🤙🏾🤙🏾yewww
A quote that makes sense to me on you using heavy gear is the saying "Prepare your fields today, for rain tomorrow"
J&J Bassing "better to have it and not need it, then to need it, and not have it"
You and your boys vids are sick ive learnt heaps thanks heaps 👍 could you guys do a few "how to vids" like chucking stick baits, plastics, poppers or any tips cheers
YES MATE! the tools of the legend. AWESOME, KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!
Love the vids Brooksy. The insight is awesome for rookie GT chasers. It would be sick if you could do some vids or give some more insight on how to work the different lures and how you work the rod to get different action. Keep up the awesome work mate
will do mate, thanks!
Sweet vid mate, lucky bugger, off fishing again!!
Un vídeo increíble lleno de fundamento para cualquier pescador que quiera tener una aventura de pesca extrema. Me quedo con todos los consejos, llenos de equilibrio, y espero ponerlos pronto en práctica. Saludos y buena pesca!
You are the best GT fisherman I've ever seen I love you
the best fisherman is the one having the most fun! so yeah haha thanks legend
Jonny Brooks Fishing absolutely right. I guess that's why you like gt fishing and hardcore conditions. Keep up the good work!
sick advice carnt.
Those STELLA's are stunning looking reels ...
brooksyy, nice vid, sick tackle!!!
Good video thanks for the info👍
Killer set up 🔱💪🎣
Big fan for the vids you guys do. What speeds are your reels. And how does the Zenaq Tobizo match up to the Ripper fishers. Used the Zenaq Fokeeto for spainish macks and didn't find it to be really fantastic. Wonder if the Tobizo is a big upgrade in performance.
Nice haircut brooksy!
Dang you clean up pretty well. Used to seeing the wasted, disheveled persona, sort of like a serial killer on holiday. Should have morphed the vid into a catch and cook of the unsuspecting female.
hahahahahahahaaha best comment ever
Brookysssssssyyyyy. I'm studying marine science all my projects and presentations are G- barrier reef based - I fished my way round OZ from Darwin to Townsville then melbs to perth!! love the vids. you guys are legends.

Such a awsome video man i make lures in hawaii and really want you guys to try them out man let me know how i can send you out some
man this answers so many of my questions! thanks brooksy! Have you tried the N.S blackhole calypso stickbaits? look pretty good the price
stoked u found it useful mate. haven't tried them but will def give them a look.
The gear you use is precise mate but back here in chennai (India) people are popping using hand line 0. 8-0.10 Mono and landed some 20kg 30kg beast... The timber's holding line is bursting...thats really psyco one day u ought to see it..
on day seven,,,, god created "morning tide fishing" team.... to make us mortals have a mening in Life... big thx
Cool vid, nice info. Unfortunately we don't have the tools you use here in the Caribbean, and it's really hard to get the good stuff down here. Cheers from Barbados mate. Keep up the good work
thanks mate. surely u can order online? shipping might be a bit of a sting though? hope to make it out ur way one day bro
Ive been waiting for this
great vid brooksy you have to try shoes from kmart, $20 and are so comfy can't go wrong there black with white soles and drain really easy, yeeman
Good channel! I'm always looking for products as a distributor (on a small level) to sell here in Indiana USA. Are "Askhuey" sunglasses still made there? I can't seem to get a hold of them. Thanks.
Great video! Will my 30lb 8x braid + 60lb leader be broken for even a small gt? Thank you.
Hello, I have an really importante questions for you, because I watched on the video you have the three rods is Zenaq Tobizo; Which one will you recommend me for coast and boat? Because I really want a next level for tunas and I am thinking to buy new heavy equipment for that.
Tobizo TC80-200G with Daiwa Saltiga 14000 XH? 8 length.
Tobizo TC83-150G with Daiwa Saltiga 14000 XH? 8’3 length.
Do you know exactly the weight of the both rods?
Thank you 👏🏼
Great stuff, what kind of knot do you like to use with the heavy leader to the swivel?
super simple 4 turn uni knot mate.
Thank you mate
Love the 'tech talk' Should be a weekly thing
can do
Great vid 👌
Brooksy do you use the tobizo TC80-50g at home off the rocks or do you prefer something longer? I'm tore between that rod and the Muthos mid game 9'6. What do you recommend?
Definately wana save up for a tabizo, gona take me a while, $1200 nz, i fish from rocks for kingfish on banks peninsula with a Shakespear uglystick Black Tiger 1484-002 2.1m/ 7 ft, this rod cost me $140 nz, and has landed a 30kg king fish with a Diawa emcast plus fishing real- this is old gear tho- more than 10 years- but there are some good cheaper options for people on a tight budget...

Mate, great tips and thanks for sharing. What pound leader are you running on that light tobizo PE4 setup? Sick setups. Thanks mate, really glad I came across your vids. Happy fishing!
hey mate, normally around 80lb leader on that setup!
Jonny thanks heaps for that mate. One of the best straightforward tackle talks.
When you do fish for “normal” fish do you run a swivel on your lures? Including on lures with bibs?
yeah mate pretty much run a swiv to split on everything apart from light gear plastics/barra ect.
Thanks Mate. Appreciate the reply.
Hey Brooksy, could you make a similar video where you're showing us your smaller lures for when you're fishing from the surf for reef fish or just smaller fish...

Well said. And you've done the "what's in ya box?' series with the Rapala Long Casts, So Runs etc.
Jonny Brooks Fishing Please make this video. Can you also try some surf fishing for us? I know its not your favorite thing but it would be good to see because not everyone braves the rocks.
Awesome!
What length is your leader for GT popping mate? How many times around the spool? I'm off to Oman in February to shoot some videos, any suggestions or tips would be greatly appreciated. I will be booking up with No Boundaries. Cheers!
when u change new rod，can you give me this old one
Just wondering why you think it is important to squash the barbs on trebles? .I have been thinking about doing the same just for safety reasons
is the TC80-200G a one piece rod? or is it set up for a traveling rod ( does it come in 3 or 2 piece ) thanks
Do u recommend the pg or xg for popping and stickbaits. By the way awesome video 👍
I'm curious to know as well
Hows it go there mate, I see that u use Tasline. What ya think the 60lb tasline breaks at.??
Nice to get the low down on the gear! Liked the glasses, what was the make and model? Electric fishing? They seemed to have boatloads of models but couldn't spot the ones you had cheers
hey mate, the glasses are called the Knoxville. super good lenses!
Brooksy can you run us through your leader to mainline set up in the next vid. I'm guessing you use the FG knot if so do you tie the while fishing? I tie them at home before going out but can't tie them well enough while standing on rocks with the wind blowing
the second vid I ever put up on this channel shows how I tie my fg mate! go check it out
nice video, but two things: a 18000 stella(or new Saltiga) with a 20000 spool is a 20000 cause the spool is the only difference.

Hi! Thanks for the video! How long you use your leader? Does the knot go through the guides every time you cast??
hi mate. I cast with the leader knot between the reel and the first guide. I always try and have the longest leader possible.
What length does your leader usually have when fishing from the shore?
For the other roads, that you have, what size of sweavel do you use ?
Where do you get your gear from? (rod reel line) recently watched a vid where a supplier was mentioned... I need new gear aye but have very little money
Love it
Sir, can i use a popping rod which has lure rating 100-200g for stick bait 80-100g
Sick video Brooksy, really informative. After watching Briggsy video talking about your tally, I'm surprised you didn't go up and drop a line next to the hot chick.
Briggsy is a good actor mate, don't listen to it hahaha
Sick video bra, gunna have to sus out a new rod for bigger shit so will have to have a sus at zenaq. How do you clean your reels after your seshs would be a good vlog as ive heard so many ways from different people.

Can you tell me what brand of snap swivel is the best for gt ?
Do you guys think that shimano purposely made it that you can put a 20k spool on a 18k reel or it’s coincidence that it fits.. also does the line roller part of the bail not rub on spool?
Good recommend...
Hey Brooksy, rod question after a bit of a Morningtide and co viewing blitz . You used to go with much longer rods off the bricks, Zanak Defi Muthos 10 footer etc., but now about 8 foot. Is that because you've moved more towards targeting GTs rather than tuna etc, and are interested more in power rather than casting distance?
both cast pretty similar actually... but yeah coming into tuna time so I'm gonna be using the longer rod a fair bit more I think.
do you have ultralight tackle for jigging or casting? cuz its popular in southeast asia
29:31 the bloody ice cream truck in the background!!!
What do you use to transport your reels?
Hi Brooksy, I just subscribed to your channel,I'm also a Brigsy and Carvy follower. I'm just getting into this kind of fishing for Gts and other big fish in general.

How often do you get your reels serviced?
What do you recommend for an all around rod for a Stella 14000 . Price don’t matter.
Nice Brooksy. Preferred knots for your set up?
fg always mate

What kind of action does the 150 and 200 Tobizo have? I got a Ripple that I thought would be able to work poppers but it just doesn't. Way too soft at the tip. Can hardly work a 45g Chuggy. Do the Tobizos have a good solid stiff tip?
tobizo is definitely a allrounder. both poppers n stickballs. up to 150gr with the 83/150 and 200gr max with 80/200.
When packing down do you dose your splits and hooks with inox/lanox. Keeps mine from rusting and doesn’t put fish off biting from my experience and keeps my hooks fresh and sharp no rust
good point mate.defintely the smart thing to do.
I usually soak all my lures and hooks in a bucket of water with a bit of detergent or something then hang them to dry. inox probably the better option though. nice one
Jonny Brooks Fishing I do my reels with inox every 5 or 5 trips in the salt and have never had issues with corrosion plus it’s safe for plastics and braid, never had line failure from using it
Awesome vid bro u guys are killin it where's the next trip to or it's a secret?
lips r sealed haha
Sweet bro will be epic regardless
When are you guys gonna have more of the morning tide lures in and maybe make another video for the knots you tie and how to tie them, I'm trying to learn the fg knot
check out my FG knot vid mate. second ever vid I uploaded to this channel
Can you please write down the name of the sun glass you mentioned last... Thank you Sir Brooksy.
They are electric bro
Brooooksy, is the tasline and varivas hollow core braids?
both are solid braids mate.
Nice vid.. Have you used or know if the the zeikel bloodline pe 4-8 jigging rod is any good..cheers
I haven't mate but I've seen Tristan break a few haha
Haha thanks mate
Could you pls tell me the hooks name and thier size ( bamboo , rod and dimention )
Great review. By the way, I swear that looked like Nate Tsao on the boat back at the start? Did you do Oman with Nate? He's a legend.
that's Nate. he's in the topwater dream fish video catching his first ever barramundi also
Are you using the fg knot mate?
Fishing > everything else 😁
what rod for xraps and metals off the rocks
Can you do a video where you talk about the cheapest rod and reel combo
Could you pop a link of those new shades you got?
