    Amazing video bro. Can’t believe the fish we reeled in. Lots of epic firsts for me 🎉. Thank you for the incredible adventure! The 1:30am start was well worth it. The kids loved seeing all the action. Especially the squid scenes - got them all dancing 😂

    Well done Johnny,
    Another belter video, you're getting better, I think it's time to up your game to the next level and give us more technical aspects of your fishing.
    I would love to see more content about your boat and the hardware you have on. What mods have you made for your boat and why you chose the boat you have. These kinds of things help us viewers get to understand more about boating as well. What gear do you have on the boat to make it a successful fishing boat. I think it would be a great little video when you can't go out fishing. The more fishing education for us viewers the better, I think the more you can help us novices on hooks sinkers jigs rods reels braid/leaders the better. At the end of the day we watch your video for the fishing but also the adventure and understanding why you choose products that you use for your successful missions.

    • @johnnychowjc
      @johnnychowjc  10 місяців тому

      Hey David, we are travelling between 80-120km out to the reef. There are some spots we stop at before the reef and we also fish the reef itself. There are usually plenty of spots between the mainland and the reef which hold good fish. 😀

    has it taken you very long John to get good at aiming and hitting, you seem to be doing pretty well and that was an awesome trout

    • @johnnychowjc
      @johnnychowjc  11 місяців тому +1

      Hey mate, I started spearing on the reef in February this year. As you would have seen, I still miss my fair share but I’m happy if I land a couple. Diving is very addictive I must say. There is just something about the underwater world that lures you in. If you haven’t tried it I highly recommend. 😀

      @AttitudeAdjuster 11 місяців тому

      @@johnnychowjc No I haven't yet but I am already hooked, A mate recommended the Shark Shield so I might also grab one of those.
      Hey Like Fishing Johnny plenty of people edit out their misses because they are to vain to be human and like everything the more you practice the better you get. But it certainly see the call.
      My New boat will be Seaduced Again

      so Hopefully we will bump fins one Day.

    G'day John, mate I've got lots of questions for you, bit I'll only ask this one question to begin with.
    I've noticed that you fish around the Whitsunday Islands a fair bit, so my question is,,,,,, how far do you travel to get to the Whitsundays ?
    PS, I live at Airlie Beach.

    • @johnnychowjc
      @johnnychowjc  11 місяців тому

      Hey Pete, I’m based in Airlie as well. It’s about half an hour to get out to the islands and about 2-3 hrs to the outer reef. You are welcome to ask any further questions mate, I will answer them as best I can.

  • @kamadowoah4584
    @kamadowoah4584 11 місяців тому +1

    Do you reckon reel speeds are a bit of a joke? You jig and bottom bash with a high spèed reel yes? Stella 14kxg? I think you can throw lures with a low speed lure as well it doesnt really matter

    • @johnnychowjc
      @johnnychowjc  11 місяців тому +1

      Yeah good point you raised. I think PG reels have a bit more torque but I have always been a fan of higher retrieval speeds. I’m not very technical with my fishing though, I like to keep things simple. Smooth drag is the key. 😀

    • @kamadowoah4584
      @kamadowoah4584 11 місяців тому

      @johnnychowjc so many people prefer high speed reels. I do a lot of lure fishing with a 5000 vanford(all vanfords high speed with pe1.5 ocea on it but my go to boat set up is a stella 6kHG a mid speed 5.7.1 reel with pe3 line on a wilson venom 6'6 pe2-5 rod. We use slightly lighter gear than you guys us humble nsw folk lol. Apologies for the long comment I'm fishing gear obsessed! Great vid by the way
