Epic fishing | Behind the scenes footage | Swains Reef

Join me on an epic fishing trip as we catch a huge range of reef and pelagic fish species on lures. I also get a hook through my finger with a red throat attached. The location is the magical Swains Reef and our home for 10 days was Bigcat reality charters with Wilson Fishing. Catching Coral Trout, Red throat emperor, Giant Trevally aka GTs, Green Jobfish, Spanish Mackerel, Chinaman, Hussar and more as we battle with sharks that continued to eat our big fish. Enjoy

Nerves of steel man.. that would have hurt! Insane fishing tho, can’t wait for the next episode

[@gregswickedfishing]

haha thanks mate. Grit the teeth, remove and move on lol.

[@nikphil]

Thanks Greg. No panic when the hook went thorough.... and Dr Sammy taking care of it on the Mother Ship. Hope it heals quickly. Looking forward to part 2. cheers

[@gregswickedfishing]

haha no panic required mate. Easy fix that one although it gave me some grief all week but it's healed now.

[@paulmarnane1192]

Greg thanks for the commentary about where you moved and why. Very informative.

[@gregswickedfishing]

Thanks mate glad you enjoyed it. Cheers

[@crikeymacca]

Awesome job Greg, especially on the hook. Ask Scotty Harradine about the USB cord removal method.😂

[@gregswickedfishing]

Thanks macca. Hahaha sounds like some drinks were involved in that story. lol.

[@xxxneoxxx]

Like kids in a candy store, what an awesome trip.

[@gregswickedfishing]

haha 100% mate. Cheers

[@stevenm_3sixty]

Great video as per usual, thanks for sharing. Some great memories fishing the Staines came back, those Chinamen sure go hard. Think you gotta a good one and that stripped bastard pops up. Great sport fish but. Note to self, put small bolt cutters back in boat. Keep telling myself that and keep forgetting. Job done.

[@gregswickedfishing]

Thanks mate glad you enjoyed it. Yep its a great part of the country that's for sure. Haha yeah put them in the boat mate you never know when you will need them. Cheers

[@scottyzfishing5660]

What a start to a fantastic adventure greg 👍 you are definitely racking up the piercings throughout your journeys mate 🤦 awsome footage and thanks for sharing 🎣

[@gregswickedfishing]

Hahaha thanks Scotty I hope that's my last piercing for a long time now lol. Cheers mate

[@andrewrollins4898]

Bad luck mate! After a friend caught a bird with the hook too large for the cutters, I've leant the lesson to pack cutters large enough for all hooks. A few days ago, I watched another fisherman file down the barb to unhook himself.

[@gregswickedfishing]

yeah mate always handy to have the cutters on board. That video you watched with the file was me mate lol. Mackerel put a treble through my foot last year lol.

[@andrewrollins4898]

@@gregswickedfishing 🤭Well, at least you haven't lost a finger.

[@jamest1479]

Greg you need to change your deodorant. The sharks follow you everywhere! Seriously though that's fishing and tackle heaven!

[@gregswickedfishing]

Hahaha unfortunately that's fishing these days mate. It's so bad. Cheers mate

[@Captaincursed]

Epic!! I’m going on big cat to Swain’s in early December this year. Pumped.

[@rajahhindi3921]

Kanimbla?

[@gregswickedfishing]

Cheers mate. I hope you have an awesome trip too.

[@nevanalthaus2387]

🤙🤙 What an awesome trip, great episode mate.

[@gregswickedfishing]

Thanks mate it sure was a trip to remember. Cheers

[@craigtomkinson2837]

lovely Ep and fish Guys

[@gregswickedfishing]

Thank you legend much appreciated.

[@JayThorp]

Does Wilson supply the white Crocs too haha, did well with the self hookup mate, happens to the best of us, look forward to the next one, CHEERS

[@gregswickedfishing]

hahaha funny a few blokes had them last year and the boys rave how good they were on their feet. Just about everyone on this trip had them and they were feet savers for sure. Never thought I'd be a croc wearer but I'm sold on them now lol

[@pearcebrown1043]

Nice video mate that hook looked nice and painful!

[@gregswickedfishing]

thanks mate. Just a minor set back lol

[@russthemuss8142]

Done a few trips on big cat, been good or great. Sharks, the buggers, can be buggers but we've always had a fabulous box to take home and the boat is a ripper. Thanks for taking us along on your trip, Greg.

[@gregswickedfishing]

Thanks mate. Yep shes a great boat to do the trips on that's for sure. Cheers for the support.

[@cruisin_our_country]

Insane fishing mate. Bit of a situation with your finger hookup though

[@gregswickedfishing]

Thanks mate. Not a situation I want anymore of lol

[@craigparker4108]

A great couple of sessions mate. Oh no not again, that was unlucky with the pliers slipping. 🩹

[@gregswickedfishing]

Thanks mate. haha yep i think I was bit unlucky with that one. Cheers

[@Gr8fishingNQ]

Hi Greg another outstanding presentation of Swains love your Vids Mate I have one question I noticed your GoPro on your hat how did you secure it to it Cheers mate

[@gregswickedfishing]

Hey mate thanks heaps. I drilled a hole through my hat and put a button head allen key bolt into a 1/4 gopro fitting.

[@Gr8fishingNQ]

@@gregswickedfishing Well there you go up top for thinking mate good job 👍

[@davelawless]

Hi Greg. Great videos. We are heading to swains end of May. What reel is that heavier overhead you are using for jigs? And do you use 50lb or 30lb. Thanks for the tips

[@gregswickedfishing]

Thanks mate.The jigging reel is a ocea jigger 3000 customer with PE4 braid on it. Really nice reel to use for all sorts of applications.

[@MaxFISH.]

Great video mate. I'm sure you'd agree a hook through the finger beats a treble through the foot!

[@gregswickedfishing]

haha thanks mate. Yeah i reckon you're right. Both were tame compared to the one I got in my calf muscle years back but.

[@Captaincursed]

I keep going on KZbin looking for part 2………

[@gregswickedfishing]

haha its up

[@s4173322]

What sort of line are you typically running Greg ?

[@gregswickedfishing]

hey mate running mostly venom V-Line braid.
