Cheers mate! Was an awesome way to spend the weekend. Although, I’m still recovering from the big drive and lack of sleep haha. Self inflicted 😅

[@unclefester]

Awesome day again mate. You seem to be able to pick the conditions well. Also noticed your getting famous with a mention on OBM. Love your channel mate. Cheers

[@johnnychowjc]

I watch the weather like an eagle 🦅 haha. We don’t always get it right but it’s nice when it all comes together. Yes, OBM were very nice to give us a shout out! Certainly not famous & the main reason I film is to capture the cool moments on the water. 😀 thanks for your continued support mate

[@michaeljudd1162]

Another cracking vid champion, you are a master of the reef. Love seeing those quality fish coming over the side of that boat. Amazing condition s out there this time. Your a bloody legend!!!

[@johnnychowjc]

Thanks Michael! I’m no master matey. Always learning something new every trip. Hopefully a few tips to help everyone catch a few more on their next trip 😊

[@lachlansong5773]

[@johnnychowjc]

Thanks Brad! Appreciate your continued support mate! It was indeed a special trip. I can’t get enough of the ocean! It’s definitely my happy place. I’m slowly getting my more confident with my drone. Flying it further & higher haha. Hope you & the family are well. Tight lines 😀

[@Fanta-SeaFishing]

Nice wrk again Johnny 🤟🏽🤟🏽 insane conditions 🤤🤤

[@johnnychowjc]

Cheers Neil. Yeah mate, small weather windows for us on the east coast at the moment! Another La Niña this season so could be a wet one with big swell! Fingers crossed 🤞 Mother Nature is kind to us this summer.

[@Fanta-SeaFishing]

@@johnnychowjc yeh im hearing ya. Been shockingly windy over here to 😩😩 makes it bloody hard. Keep up the good work mate

[@markcullingford2690]

Hey mate, great video. I love fishing the bunkers. Just wondering what brand and model drone you use?

[@johnnychowjc]

Thanks mate! It’s a special place. I am using the DJI mavic 3. 👌

[@AyaheAgam]

pemandangan dan spot yang menarik mantap senang lihat nya 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@johnnychowjc]

Thank you!!

[@user-rt5br1zi3u]

​@@johnnychowjcHi mate Is 1770 located in great barrier ???? ❤❤❤

[@Gr8fishingNQ]

Hey Jonny awesome session right there good footage mate Just a question do you drift fish over your spots or drop anchor I live in Townsville and do a lot of reef fishing just wondering Cheers Dave

[@PEtackle]

he drifts mate

[@johnnychowjc]

Hey Dave, I drift and keep my engine on to reverse into the lost dominant force I.e the wind or swell/current. This allows me to vertically fish straight up & down. 👌

[@matthewgrech5545]

Some awesome fish mate, thanks for the upload. What’s the fish you use for bait?

[@johnnychowjc]

Hey Matt, we use hussar as bait & combine with mullet fillet. They are very common species on the reef. 👌

[@matthewgrech5545]

@@johnnychowjc thanks Johnny 👍

[@jeremy8064]

Nice vid mate!! I’m thinking of heading to 1770 myself for an overnighter from Brisbane any tips weather wise would 8 knots/0.8m swells be abit much for a 5.2m boat?

[@johnnychowjc]

Hey Jeremy, thanks for supporting the channel. Yes, anything sub 10 knots should be fine. But always check the wind and swell report prior to departure, as Mother Nature can change any time. Personally, I like to only head put to the reef when it’s sub 5 knots, so if they get the weather wrong the conditions are still fair. 15 knots off 1770 with strong wind against tide isn’t fun. Stay safe and tight lines mate.

[@andyling9513]

Johnny could you please tell us what model terez rod and Stella reel you were using ?

[@johnnychowjc]

Hey Andy, I was using shimano Anthem 30-50lb and Shimano Stella 14k. 👌

[@aaronbaldwin2944]

Nice vid, what rod do you use ?

[@johnnychowjc]

Thanks Aaron. I’m using the Shimano Anthem 6”9 and 30-50lb. It’s a two piece rod. 😀

[@christopherhonor2410]

nice haul guys, johnny how much do you charge for a day trip of Agnes if you have a spare spot or 2, chasing trout and reds, cheers Chris

[@johnnychowjc]

Hey Chris, sorry I don’t charter, just fish with my mates. I can recommend Cam (1770 on your boat) runs charters or you could search a few of the local operators on google. 👌

[@christopherhonor2410]

@@johnnychowjc do you ever do much of bundy

[@christopherhonor2410]

@@johnnychowjc I've only got a 4.3mtr tinny with a 40merc tiller steer, only go 7mile off bundy, got a 30kg bluefin tuna few weeks back, floating pilly out the back for a mackerel, took not even 2min to get in the boat

[@markmcdermott7496]

Mate, what type of transducer are you running with your Simrad. Thanks

[@johnnychowjc]

Hey Mark I am running the Airmar 1kw TM275 LHW transducer 😀

[@markmcdermott7496]

Cheers mate, appreciate your quick reply

[@caesar4513]

How big was the Pearly?

[@johnnychowjc]

Pearly was about 68cm champ. Didn’t weigh it 😀

[@gripnripfishing866]

surely you didn't just drop that beserker jig with a flesh bait on it and then sell it off that you jigged that trout up on it lololol nice haul of fish this trip

[@johnnychowjc]

Hey mate if you watched some my other videos and you jump on their website, the berserker meat heads are specifically designed for holding bait. They aren’t a traditional micro/butterfly jig. I don’t hide that I use bait on them. When they get baited by peckers, I do jig them with and without bait. 👌

[@deedeelemons2035]

Grip and rip fishing, who cares on what method you catch em, as long as you do, and have great day out! I’m sure Johnny and his family enjoyed their expensive day out, fuel , tackle etc, and took home a lovely feed of fish, if you don’t like his method, piss off😡

[@deedeelemons2035]

Awesome vid Johnny, please check comment I made to old grip and rip fishing! What a turd, 💩

[@johnnychowjc]

Thanks for the support mate I do appreciate it. We clocked some km’s and spent some $$ but was a fun adventure. I don’t claim to be the best or know everything just trying to share my experiences and a little of the knowledge I know. I’m trying to keep the channel a positive place / community. I can’t please everyone but I am trying to be respectful to all. 😊
