Love the video Johnny! Amazing fish! Can’t wait to get amongst it!!
Thanks a bunch Jake! The next video will be featuring you on fire on the rod and straight hook 😄
TANK 😍😍 and to top it off was a great release 👏🏽👏🏽
Thanks Will & Mary, was definitely cool to see her swim back healthy 😀 good to see you guys caught and released quite a few reds yourselves 😀
Amazing to see sustainable fishing practices 🙌
Cheers mate! It’s the way forward I feel, I want my boys to experience what I have and looking after our oceans in all aspects is the key. 😀
Smashing it Johnny !! What an awesome fish, congrats 👏👏👏
Cheers Grechy! A lot of time, blood, money sweat, tears and sacrifices mate has gone into being consistent on the water. Still learning something every trip though and have my fair share of tough trips like everyone else! It’s nice when it all comes together 😀
another great day out there fishing. So Jealous are you sure you wont come out with us on our boat for a half day :) keep up the good work Jonny, I would love to see more content where you go to hook or other islands and just do different styles of fishing and see what you catch
Thanks Sinan, will try to work on some of that other content you requested. Just let me know what species you are most interested in targeting 😀
@@johnnychowjc I think the episode can be about any style of fishing, dont forget we all love fishing and it could start with
episode 1 :) im fishing for topwater fish spanish mackeral the entire setup of your gear the bait the jigs/stickbaits weights the month of the year the spaniards are on the legal size limits best locations to get them, the time of the day and how to bleed them fillet them and styles to cook them. again this is what I would like to see, this may not be what your views like to see its always worth posting the question maybe on insta for a poll and then you make it a mission to catch that on your next video. Good luck and I hope I see Episode 1 Spaniard hunt !!!:)
Big thank you Johnny for the awesome trip, it was truly one of my favourite trips out fishing! Hope to see you again soon uncle. Sick video too!! :)
You are welcome Sean. Was fun catching up with you and your grandad. Fun times and some awesome memories for all of us 😀
great technical content... many of us dont know what gear to buy for certain styles of fish or where to find the fish. Keep doing a technical segment and get a sponsor on board and sell their products... for example mustard hooks or nomad vertex/squidtrex you get the drift, im pretty sure thats where you want to get to with your channel and keep doing what you are doing to show maybe the entire trip in snippets.
like preperations you take before you go out safety times you leave and why, weather checks sites all the details to make it a successful and safe trip, even down to the putting the boat in and out and washing it down cleaning your engine/boat/trailer and fish fillet and even a small cookup. These are just my thoughts and suggestions that could help you get more views.
Great suggesting mate, will take the feedback onboard and try to incorporate into future videos! 😀 keep the suggesting coming mate
Your making peoples dream come true Johnny! Love to see it!
Thanks very much mate! I’m just playing a small part and every trip is unpredictable. I’m just stoked the stars all lined up! 😀
Great edit and awesome release on the red mate! Well done! 🎥👍
Thanks guys!! Super special seeing the big red go equalise as she swam into the depths 😀
Do you use the same terez rod when you are casting on the shallow reef flats?
You are such an amazing person & fisho Johnny. Great opening Video scene of your beautiful boat doing spiralling of the GB Reef. Also "Best Fishing Practices" for sustainability in releasing the PB Red in which you could of kept if you want to; however released so she could reproduce many more amazing Reds. Cheers FishermanDan
G’day fisherman Dan! Thanks for your continued support and advocacy! It’s awesome to be able to fish on the GBR and looking after our oceans and fish stock is vital for our next generations to enjoy 😊
Love your content @johnnychowjc, we're doing a trip up to cairns in a few weeks dragging my boat up but have never really fished offshore so hoping we can at least get a couple of small fish lol limited on room in the vehicle so figuring out what rod setups to take is probably the biggest challenge for us newbies haha, keep the great content coming 👌😉
Hey mate thanks for supporting the channel. Sounds like a fun trip you got planned. Depending on what style of fishing you are doing you generally want at least one casting rod (longer) and a bottom bashing rod for reef fishing. No need to go overboard but two setups would be minimum to get you out of trouble. Feel free to DM me on Insta and can chat more 😀
Great video once again mate! Thanks for thinking of us & taking time out away from your family to take us out for a fish! Made some great memories with this trip!
Anytime!! Was an amazing trip and one I will probably never forget! Unless I get alzheimers haha 😂
Awesome video Johnny! Thanks for showing your rod and reel set up up close for us. How many cms do you think the big red you released was?
Thanks Kym, appreciate your support for the channel. I think it was just under 90cm . Not a long fish but plenty of meat on the shoulders. 😀
Yes johnny absolute magic mate 👌 your making me jealous with the fishing lately bro ha ha ha congrats on the Pb red too🤙
Thanks Scotty, I’m using up all my luck at once bud. Don’t worry I will prob struggle for the next two months haha. Tight lines legend, hope you are getting amongst them! 😀
Wow, what an awesome red Johny. Thanks for the tips. Love ya work.
Thanks mate! Really appreciate the support for my channel 😀
Nice C&R John.
Hopefully will see you next month.
Cheers Ed! I’m looking forward to it. 😀
the reds obviously like the back end of a full moon !!
They sure do haha. Maybe it’s the Spanish mackerel bait they like. Not sure 🤔
Need to go shopping for more lures after that first drift John!
Thanks Ray! Yes, back to the tackle shop haha
On ya John. Love the underwater stuff!
Cheers Dan! Was good to see the big girl swim off 😀

@@johnnychowjc thanks! Just bought a couple. I’ll be arriving at Brisbane shortly and will be heading to Cairns and will be fishing a couple of days near the barrier. Could you advise were to buy a couple of reels and rods?
It would be great to buy them in Brisbane
Thanks for the tips and entertainment!

Great video Johny thanks for sharing some of that wonderful knowledge you have !
Don’t know how much gold was in there and some people probs think I’m mad haha, buts it’s honestly how I look for ground and try to spend my time sounding on the flat stuff 😀

Some great variety that trip! From GT to Cobia to Reds, very nice! It's interesting to see the Red you released just swim straight down no troubles at all unlike a lot of other species. 😎👍
Was a variety box indeed bud! Cool to see our oceans and reefs so healthy! Goal is to keep it that way so our boys get to enjoy what we have 😀
Wow👍
