You got to love a winter's day in the S/E, such a beautiful morning to be out fishing. Great to see some lure reviews of lures we might not have in the lure box at home and I'm looking forward to your coverage of the Lure Expo. 👍
saw you launching next to me when launching your boat a few weeks ago at jacobs well ramp. I was in a 5M black centre console with foam sponsons, kapten boat collar. I was having engine trouble so never made it out and was too grumpy to say g'day but was so impressed when the young fella asked for a photo and you just took the time out of your day to take a pic. Hope you had a good day out.
I'll be heading back from Monduran on Saturday, planning on swinging in on the way home. Hopefully bump into you. Cheers for another great vid mate and a full hr!!
You asked how we handle flatties…… personally I carry a couple of old cloth nappies with me, one to wipe hands, the other to hold fish. I wet them and cover the head while picking them up. Doesn’t take slime off them and keeps spikes, fins and gill rakers flat for easier handling 👍.
@@mylurebox yeah had a few rays get me shaking....eagle rays will dump a spool in shallow water only other fish that came close was an 82cm tailer in 2 foot!....rays cool.
👍 Wish I could make it to the Expo, Would be nice to say G'day. Loved this longer format video, was great to see such a variety of lures catching some quality fish.
Hi John, your trailer winch handle is detachable, i accidently bought one like that and had it welded on, was such a pain remembering to take it off after being used to a fixed one..
When I used to live and fish the Goldy, those little Mc Grath Attack lures were the ducks nuts. For a small lure they catch some very big fish. Got spooled twice because of these bad boys.
Those Murasame rods you are using are also Australian designed and made in Japan Bream X was designed by me and Bass X that you sneakily got. Great video mate 👍 hopefully catch up at afta next week.
What model was that in the video? I've just ordered the 632ULS for my wife but looking as something longer for me. I was surprised at the hoisting on the large bream for such a light rod 😉
@@PARATROOPER2358 I looked at the 722m but the website says it's a 6-12lb rod, then again it says it does 1/16th cast weight, so it's a tad confusing what the rod is suited to. I'm wanting a mainly whiting rod but something that will cope with a decent snapper or Australian salmon too. Does anyone in SA carry these?
Hey mate great video, good to see this event happening in Fernvale, 15 minutes away from us, fresh water fishing territory! But also a lot of good salt water fisherman that don't get to go fishing alot being a farming community. If I see you in the crowd I would love to pick your brain about some Saltwater lures dew to a little break up to Caloundra, on the Pumicestone Passage. 👌👍 Cheers mate
James, are you taking a tinnie up to Caloundra? If you are, put your boat in at the Caloundra power boat club, head south, take the first right and go into the Pelican Waters canals - you can pick up some nice bream and jacks on softies in there👍
@@Smokeyr67 Unfortunately we won't be taking a boat up there this trip, just a quick trip with us and the kids, a break away from the farm. We're gonna be land based, staying in a unit close to Bullock, Golden Beach and a drive to Bells Creek. Thanks for your feedback mate next time I go up I'll try take the boat. Cheers mate
You've got me frothing, but I'm not having a lot of luck with conditions. I'm at Casuarina, getting flogged on the open beaches with the swell and can't jag the right conditions to hook up some tailor. I think I might have found a good spot to try my big SUP tomorrow with similar water conditions to where you are in this video. You've got me invested in jacks, bought a bait caster, but the postman is being slow with that too. LOL< I wrote that before you got to teh bit where you said, "I hope I've got you frothing".
@@mylurebox I used to live in Bundy, still have rellos there, and am working up in Bowen in spring, DIDO, so I'll be able to hit some of the estuaries through that area.
Great vid. I love watching your reviews but they cost me money 💰 🤣 the attack lures are in my tackle box and haven’t been used for years. They will be again. Yours are really old school with the same bib and not the plastic ones. Swim minnows will be my next purchase 🤣 why you think they are better than a slim swimz ?😂
Hahaa. Cheers Mark ;) I love both of those lures. The SwimMinnows paddle like mad. The long slim profile is Gar like and the colours are really impressive. Holty is a local maker too.
Amazing video Johnny, love the longer videos, great stuff, just one question about Australian timber lures, are they generally a lot more expensive , than mass produced lures, and are they worth the investment for regular anglers on a budget, looking forward to seeing what else comes out in the expo, can't get there myself, so thanks for taking us there with your videos,
I can answer that .. Yes in some cases they will be more expensive but there are a few lure makers out there that don’t sell them more expensive. They are worth it for two reasons as an investment because timber lures are more snag resistant. If you hit a log for or rock for example it will bump backwards because the wood is more bouyant compared to weighted morgen plastic mould ones. The second reason is because all are hand made each has an individual movement in the water unlike any other which will always guarantee a curiosity bite. Hope this helps
@@paullobwein1632 Thanks Paul, that definitely helps, I will definitely be looking into a few, I do have a couple of Darren dizzy Borg bent mullets, from HM lures, but haven't had a chance to try them out yet, and he makes them all by hand , and only about thirty bucks, so I will definitely look into it more, thanks for the reply,

Gday Jonny i have been doing a lot of big flatty fishing on the flats after you did the talk at the Coomera waters fishing club meeting that night and I have been getting a lot of big fish follow my lures in but not fully committed to eating it. Is there anything that could help those big girl commit to eating the lure?
Maybe a few changes could help, but hard to say… change the retrieve angle to be across the tide, scent it up, switch the lure up on em. It’s hard to say. If you retry the same spot with more tidal flow, maybe that can dial em up for a bite
Hey man another thing, I’ve seen you head out the seaway I live in goldy as well and have a 400 dart with a Yamaha f30 but hesitant to go out the seaway because I don’t think my boat will handle it but seeing you go out in a 370 what do you think?
Pick ur days mate and you’ll love it. Get out there early cause when she’s glass it’s busy as. There’s some beaut days during winter when the wind isnt around
Handling flatties, I cut the middle finger out of a leather riggers glove and put it on the thumb of my rod hand and lip grip them. If their on the chew I'll just leave it on.
Is that Willy Weather/Tides/phases....etc Johnny ? Pro version or updated ?? First Sat of the WHOLE bloody yr we're working.. bugga. would of come & said g'day. Vanfords one of my next investments if not 2nd hand Ci4 Strad StinkFinger bro...bahaa. u helped build that one aiy Jc !!?😉✌🏽 Ur a top humanbeing brother..keep doin U.👊
Cheers Tony. What a bugger. Would have been brilliant to catch up mate. It’s a damn good show. Pretty sure it’s just the reg. Version of WillyWeather I think.
Really good video. I bet that young fella will be smiling for a while, good on ya!
so sick... thanks for using it Johnny I hope ya have some more luck with them👍
Nice work. Wish I could have seen the action on that lure. Is it floating or sinking?
@@alexbrowning2906 thanks mate! the one he's using is sinking

I live on the coomera river. I haven't caught a flatty for over a year. Love your channel.

Ray is highly under rated in the shallows definitely guilty of foul hooking a few on struggle days.
Hahaaaa. Totally agreed. Boy I set the hooks into ones tail with my heart about to explode and dreaming of that metery. Hahaha

Thanks
3.7m Quintrex Traveller ;) cheers Liam
I think that anyone could catch many fishes in the same fishing spot with any kind of lures. The fishing spot is the problem always…
Some of the lure copying in this country is just shameless.....im all for innovation and creativity, but some of these take the piss
You alright?
dude have a coffee. its not sheep stations.
