How’s old buddy casually snapping his rod in the background when you were holding up the Maroi Wrasse😂

[@johnnychowjc]

Haha it happens to the best of us 😂 was an unfortunate event

[@Matt_1975]

I was going say the same thing, old Harry high sticker 😂😂

[@adamklam]

@@johnnychowjc hopefully it wasn’t one of your personal setups 😂 maybe need to get a couple of spare uglysticks for the chronic high stickers 😅

[@dylanhollitt4421]

[@johnnychowjc]

Cheers mate. Yeah was my first time using the Squidtrex lures buddy. 😀

[@NHL4740]

Too cool! I’m novice and going to 1770 to catch up with a mate who has a boat. Can you help me out with some areas to start looking for structures. Cheers, keep the videos coming. Thanks!

[@johnnychowjc]

Cheers mate, stick to the 55-70m line east off Lamont, one tree and Sykes reef. Plenty of good lumps and focus on the bottom 5m of sea bed floor with your sounder.

[@NHL4740]

@@johnnychowjc thanks mate. Will do. I’ll let you know if we get a fish. 😎

[@user-ix4wl8br4t]

Hello
What's the best colour of squidtrex for peligic fish like blue fish and seabass and bonito?
Thanks

[@johnnychowjc]

Any of the colours work well. I prefer the natural colours.

[@lindsayfraser4791]

That is a workout & a half. Great job. Are you putting trebbles on the jig. If so what size.

[@johnnychowjc]

Cheers Lindsay, we are putting some BKK assist hooks on the belly of the lure. They are singles not trebles 😁

[@JustinStephenson-wg5cj]

What rod are u using johnny? I love the action of it and would like something similar.. thanks in advance

[@johnnychowjc]

Hey Justin, I was using a Shimano Terez 7”2 in length 40-80lb. It’s a great all round rod and super strong 😀

[@JustinStephenson-wg5cj]

Thanks mate.. legend.. love your vids keep up the great work👍

[@waynekettner5839]
