Johnny on the Daiwa train! I got stella's and saltiga's and catalina's, all fucken great reels. I buy whatever suits my needs and is on special at the time. Best of luck on the fishing comp!
Mate welcome to the daiwa block, once you go daiwa you won't go back. Thanks cavy and brigsy for influencing brooksy. I smell a resurrection of morning tide fishing. Best fishing channel. Keep up hopefully we can get you here in the Caribbean
Hey brooksy.... jus wanna say big congrats to u n team wambats for winning 1st place in the popping and jigging division. Watched yr win on DEER MEAT FOR DINNER. awesome mate.
My theory as far as barb hooks is that they cause you to lose more fish than barbless, first reason is that the barb creates resistance and stops the hook from reaching it's optimal position in the fishes mouth and when they do get all the way though they create/wear a big hole in the fishes mouth, like you say, keep tension on the line and you and you should be right
Bro love set up winning!!!! So proud of you Johnny Brooks of representing Australia ... and watched robs channel dear meat for dinner and just about screaming when you were there ... Not expecting that ... Good on you mate
hey mate, was over promoting Shimano for nothing. there is a full video on my facebook page explaining exactly why. changed reels to daiwa purely to try something different. have used Shimano all my life to exciting to try something new. so far they have been good
Any chance you can link the Facebook video where you tell us why Johnny? You going to daiwa is like finding out bill Cosby liked to dru-.... Well, you know...
How about this !! Put the barb further down as most times people get hooked it’s only shallow if barb was further up would be good as fish will get them
Great video mate, finally found some partners for my 4000er Saltiga and 5500 EXP after seeing your recommondations. Tight Lines for Saudi Arabia and have a good flight :) Greetings from Germany, Max
Cool to see OTL and Garage in the selections. Awesome that these niche Kiwi craftsmen are creating stuff as good as anything in the world. Good luck with the tourney. What's the go with the manufacturer you tape over?
Hi Brooksy. You switched camp from shimano to daiwa. Stella to saltiga.. I am now wondering if I should reassess. How do you guys afford all these expensive top of range rods and reels. Is this really possible... you tubing with no regular 9 to 5 income. Or are you guys all living the dream of fishing but scraping to make ends meet. I see it with morning tide, timmy turtle, rokkit kit. Are your ends meeting like a good FG knot or is this living from fish to fish?.... but wait... you guys are catch and release mostly😅😅😅😅👍👍👍👍
Daiwa huh, good to see. Nice set of reels. This was a pretty good video Jonny. The way you sorted about your lures to the types of fishing was smart. I am a bit slack with that. Sort of keep them in sizes , rather than application based. i'll change that now. I know you won the comp, so congrats, a good win, good effort. Might have a look at the Zenaq rods too. Currently running Temple reef . Nice .
I have a 5500 expedition and it’s almost the same size just a bit lighter than a 275vs. LOVE my expedition I’ll be buying each one I see for sale here in the states.
I live in Hawaii and I bought a Zenaq Duro 96HHH and I fucking LOVE it! I could never go to another brand after owning this beast of a rod. And if someone stepped on it, I would step right on his balls.
Yes I would love to get one those rods to pair with my daiwa certate 19 5000D and my saltiga to use in FL and CA. Please forward me contact info. Thank you sir and tight lines 🤙🏽
Hey Brooksy. Just a question, what brand was your jig wallet? I have been trying to find one that will hold knife jigs and slow jigs and can't find one that will do the job. The one you showed on the video looked perfect.
Your a legend Jonny cheers for the video mate awesome seeing the gear you guys use, how do you determine what size hooks you put on a stickbait do you just give them a run and swap based on the action?
I need help finding a dealer in the states who has ZENEQ Expedition EP83-6 Trevally. From what I understand FISH HEAD unable to supply the states. Thanks
At the end of the reel segment he makes it clear that Daiwa doesn't sponsor him, he paid for all of the reels himself so that he has no obligations to say how good they are. Presumably not the same case with Zenaq?
yep, I've been with zenaq for a few years now mate. some may take it as a biased point of view or whatever haha but originally i bought a zenaq, loved it, caught fish on it then we started doing stuff together. as far as I'm concerned zenaq is the best rod company ever to work with. they make rods for every kind of fishing and the rods r fucking epic haha. And as i mentioned in the vid its a small family run business not a fucking mega corporation. bloody get around them haha
Johnny on the Daiwa train! I got stella's and saltiga's and catalina's, all fucken great reels. I buy whatever suits my needs and is on special at the time. Best of luck on the fishing comp!
Epic video mate! Was cool watching DM4D and saw you win it! 👊
Mate welcome to the daiwa block, once you go daiwa you won't go back. Thanks cavy and brigsy for influencing brooksy. I smell a resurrection of morning tide fishing. Best fishing channel. Keep up hopefully we can get you here in the Caribbean
So good to see you on UA-cam, ya LEGEND! You're rocking some of the best kit that I have ever seen! GO TEAM WOMBAT! 😁
welcome to the world of Diawa. Slay them in the tourny.
Hey brooksy.... jus wanna say big congrats to u n team wambats for winning 1st place in the popping and jigging division. Watched yr win on DEER MEAT FOR DINNER. awesome mate.
Second that. BIG money! You the man!
My theory as far as barb hooks is that they cause you to lose more fish than barbless, first reason is that the barb creates resistance and stops the hook from reaching it's optimal position in the fishes mouth and when they do get all the way though they create/wear a big hole in the fishes mouth, like you say, keep tension on the line and you and you should be right
You come too the Dark Side ey? Love my Daiwas.
good job good luck
Cant wait to see the rest of the trip on youtube bloody psyched..
Look forward to the tourny
Really sweet video Brooksy. Love the Catalinas. I just brought a 5000H for SA KINGS this season. can't wait. Also can't wait to see some trip footage
Good luck Jon🙏 that's a sweet prize
bon voyage...watch yourself over there
Bro love set up winning!!!! So proud of you Johnny Brooks of representing Australia ... and watched robs channel dear meat for dinner and just about screaming when you were there ... Not expecting that ... Good on you mate
That blue Siren looks amazing.
Love gear vids bro thanks! Why the switch to Daiwa?
Hey Brooksy, Why did you tape up your old Stella’s and make the switch to Daiwa?
Because Stella's are a piece of shit when compared to Saltigas.
Magsealed, lasts longer for Saltwater.
hey mate, was over promoting Shimano for nothing. there is a full video on my facebook page explaining exactly why.
changed reels to daiwa purely to try something different. have used Shimano all my life to exciting to try something new. so far they have been good
i wouldn't say that is totally correct.
end of the day both reels r gonna break haha. pick what one suits ya needs and u actually like and your sweet.
Any chance you can link the Facebook video where you tell us why Johnny? You going to daiwa is like finding out bill Cosby liked to dru-.... Well, you know...
All my best wishes for the comp
You'll worn the 1place congratulations 🎊 🎉 🎊 🎉
Good video man, also congrats on the win! Yewwwww!
Happy with the Daiwa reels years on Brooksy?
Nice vid Jonny - good luck in the comp!
How about this !! Put the barb further down as most times people get hooked it’s only shallow if barb was further up would be good as fish will get them
With all that gear you showed that your taking you're going to need to win just to break even. Haha. Good luck.
Crazy set ups bro. Never thought I’d see you them reels. Can’t wait to see you trash them.
@jonny excellent video only you forgot to mention what where those black shoes Volleys ?
Congrats on the win, must have been an epic trip all round.
Awesome gear mate
Saw you on ‘Deer Meat for Dinners’ channel, yewww!
Can you tell us your camera set up, thanks and congratulations on winning the tournament 👍
Can’t wait for the next video
The orange rod tube is from carmate.
豪磯部 TV yes , very good tube , easy to adjust the length, i got mine paired with meiho 9000 buckets
Great video mate, finally found some partners for my 4000er Saltiga and 5500 EXP after seeing your recommondations. Tight Lines for Saudi Arabia and have a good flight :) Greetings from Germany, Max
What knot do you use on your swivels for your expensive lures?
Hi Brooksy! I would really like to know if you found the maintenance of a mag sealed reel (saltiga) harder than a “normal” one (stella)!
bonjour
les 2 prototypes Zenaq Tobizo Jogging sont en vente ? ou seleument encore en prototype ?
Love this video. Hey, how do you know which size hooks and split rings go back on which lures once you remove them?
practise makes perfect mate. if lure not swimming right change it up
Cool to see OTL and Garage in the selections. Awesome that these niche Kiwi craftsmen are creating stuff as good as anything in the world. Good luck with the tourney. What's the go with the manufacturer you tape over?
How are you finding the switch to diawa?
Did you have time to use & replace all of yours lures..?
Congrats on the Win in Saudi Arabia. I knew I noticed you on DeerMeatForDinners video. Took me a while but I notice it was you. Again Nice Win.
Thats cool video man! More lure vids. Ur stuff heaven man!
Brooksy, How do I get a Zenaq rod in the states? Fish Head cannot send me one...
Just bought a new Stradic 8000 super exited
Those figure eights look great 👍

Very good Jonny 💪🏼🎣✨✌🏻..!

What size sirens do u use
Hell yah been waiting for a new video!!
All the best with your comp champ 👊🏻
It’s Barbs or Die here in ‘Merica !!!!!!
Decent vid, good luck in the comp
Dude I'm shock when I seeyou carry all daiwas reel now!!!! what happens to all the stella man?
something different mate.
Shimano terriable sealing,no magseal in bearings
Diawa is the only one
@@JonnyBrooksFishing diawa lasts for a life time
Just replaced the 3rd line roler bearing on my 20000 saragosa
Nice bro..Theres a lot of tips I learn..
18:00 cat in a box😂
The size difference trips me out with the different brands. Like that 8500 looks like a 30 000 shimano 🤷♂️
I got an Diawa 8000 BG and yep it was the same size as a 20k shimano
I have a 5500 expedition and it’s almost the same size just a bit lighter than a 275vs. LOVE my expedition I’ll be buying each one I see for sale here in the states.
Looking it to taking a gt trip. What size set up would you recommend
I live in Hawaii and I bought a Zenaq Duro 96HHH and I fucking LOVE it! I could never go to another brand after owning this beast of a rod. And if someone stepped on it, I would step right on his balls.
Hey Brooksy I’m ordering a daiwa bg 8000 is it strong enough for a gt
Hey Brooksy,
Did you ever get around to doing a reel review vid? Keen to know what your thoughts are.
Take it easy dude
Yes I would love to get one those rods to pair with my daiwa certate 19 5000D and my saltiga to use in FL and CA. Please forward me contact info. Thank you sir and tight lines 🤙🏽
Why the change too Daiwa mate?
Why did you change your reel brand to daiwa?
Hey Brooksy. Just a question, what brand was your jig wallet? I have been trying to find one that will hold knife jigs and slow jigs and can't find one that will do the job. The one you showed on the video looked perfect.
yo mate, its from missing at sea. really good n cheap too
Cheers.
I was waiting for this...
Best mate.....
Dealer in New Zealand bro?
Your a legend Jonny cheers for the video mate awesome seeing the gear you guys use, how do you determine what size hooks you put on a stickbait do you just give them a run and swap based on the action?
ya get an eye for what looks about right pretty quickly mate. trial and error and you will sort it out in no time
Why the switch in reels mate ?
Congrats on winning 1st in popping and jigging
Hello there, im starting to getting into gt fishing and would like to ask you, what's your recommendation for a light gear setup?
I wish i can got a good set up like you
Hi,, cool vedio. Im in oman, any idea where can i get zenaq
I live in Canada anyway you can let me know where to find them here greatly appreciated
what are ur rod for 200 lb tuna
Wath happened with shimano reels?
YEEEMAN! 👏👏👏👍👍👍
For the tourney maybe use barbed hooks? Could be the difference between winning and losing that big money?
P.s good luck. I hope you win (Deermeat for dinner don’t need that money)!
The Missing At Sea lures look really similar to a Westin Swim
why did u switch from shimano to daiwa ??????
I can’t find a bloody reel travel case anything like that I’m so jealous. That Hots brand is Japanese and I can’t find one in Aus 😭
I need help finding a dealer in the states who has ZENEQ Expedition EP83-6 Trevally. From what I understand FISH HEAD unable to supply the states. Thanks
Tomos tackle in Salem MA mate.
Caught a glimpse of you on deermeatfordinners vid. was waiting for this one. sick bro
Brooksy back on the search....
Howzit Johnny I really liked what you shared in regards to your equipment. Could you forward contact info for zenaq rods in the US.
Yo mate, US dealer for Zenaq is tomos tackle in Salem MAS
Awesome set up's mate. Best of luck 👍

Why did you go from Shimano to daiwa!!!!! They sponsor you??
sick vid
Jigging & Popping
🏆
#DMFDVIDEO 😂
cool for me one rod and a reel ... greetings from Indonesia.
Gonna get on the gear Moite
why you swap out all shimano?Because of sponsorship?
Allen Lei Brooksy said he paid for all his reels and changed brands under no influence of a sponsorship. 22:44
At the end of the reel segment he makes it clear that Daiwa doesn't sponsor him, he paid for all of the reels himself so that he has no obligations to say how good they are. Presumably not the same case with Zenaq?
yep, I've been with zenaq for a few years now mate. some may take it as a biased point of view or whatever haha but originally i bought a zenaq, loved it, caught fish on it then we started doing stuff together. as far as I'm concerned zenaq is the best rod company ever to work with. they make rods for every kind of fishing and the rods r fucking epic haha. And as i mentioned in the vid its a small family run business not a fucking mega corporation. bloody get around them haha
happy birthDAIWA
Goodluck at saudi arabia!!
