brooks with the a bit of a trout set love it 😂😂

[@frednurk8590]

Nice one mate. Hope it gets sorted, it certainly seems like all companies have stepped up. It's good to be open about this stuff, as you say, it's lives on the line. You did good and it was a fair call.

[@mrcrankyank]

Epic mash up. Good to see the Brooks bending

[@VuTubeShorts]

REAL good fish. HUGE bro. PSYCHO. MASSIVE. HEAVY. HE’S BIG. BIG FISH. - Brooksy’s vocabulary 2023.

[@samuelgeue999]

5:28 thats a red snapper mate, great vid brooksy

[@Domi1988]

To print "feel alive" on a fish bag is kinda strange 🤣 Nice video Brooksy!

Daiwa for days

[@SenorFischmann]

Would have been cool to release this big beauty, but congrats on that lifetime catch.. Release the Breed and the Breeders , keep the midsized ones !

[@chrismacp11]

cant release something that's dead rip the big girl

[@michaelhall5429]

Spanish don't release well either way. They shouldn't really be fished for sport in the first place. They are usually in the same place as large sharks and they are extremely fragile even when kept in the water.

[@Jack_95]

The boys are out gettin’ it done!! What a fish! Congrats man

[@charlescoult]

"Why don't we ever do this?" cut to "Absolutely worst night's sleep you could ever imagine." 😂

[@saltyoutdoors534]

SIICKK VIDEO MAN, that spanno was wild. Also the motor issues could not be more relatable with me. I have a tinny with a tohatsu 18hp engine (fairly new as well). These motors are known to be absolutely bullet proof (like top of the range reliability and personality). Then one day I was roaring up the upper noosa river and the fuel pump buggered itself!!!!! Good thing my $600 watersnake up the front got me home!! Its so funny that the exact same thing (on a much smaller scale) happneded to me recently. I feel the exact same thing about the motor as you feel about yours.

[@chalkss]

Good to see the sustainable fishing brooksy. I'm sick of all the southerners coming to my local reef and staying until they bag out because "it cost a lot to get here"

[@sleighridefishing9027]

Another amazing video Brooksy!!! What an absolute monster Mackerel! Those tuskies look like so much fun to catch especially on the fly! Definitely need a hard strip hookset on the 10wt to get through those crazy lips! Keep up the great work!

[@grantd.5438]

Haha cracking up! Your girl walking down the gunnel without a care in the world! She could prob walk the whole edge without issue 🤘🏼Badaz

[@Violence0vAction]

Thx for sharing mate. Keep vids coming. Sucks when “new” shit breaks. Jeep renegade was 4 mos old when it lost water pump radiator & cooling fan. Been through 5 batteries in 7 years. A true lemon. But being 100k at sea & having a breakdown like that w new boat would make me lose my shit. Good on u being the diplomat - it happened & u can’t change anything about it afterward. 🤙🏼

[@miamifishingpipo]

We love your channel and great video and for that reason Miami fishing Pipo just subscribed to your channel. You guys are awesome. Tight lines

[@foolforjesusno1]

Brooksy, great vid Mate. Lol, just had to say it, welcome to fly fishing! It can be sooooooo painful, but equally sooooooo rewarding. Give ya back cast a touch longer 👍🏻🙌🏻👍🏻

[@raulcaalim3833]

Woo woo what a huge makerell congrats mate from the Philippines God bless fellas

[@claytonkeidge1699]

Got to love how you live 40km away from us and you can catch monsters 😂

[@geoffdrew5207]

I was out out at the Swains on the Kanimbla and a guy caught an 82lb mack off the back of the boat while everyone was having breakfast, it took half a dozen pilchards on a gang rig under a balloon.

[@trojanone2811]

Front deck sounds great. Great vid mate. Just remember the fishing you get to do up there whenever you want some people only get to do once in their life. You can’t judge them for taking their limit. Just sayin. Keep up the good work. Love it.

[@Maxrebow]

Yo always enjoy watching. Keep it up.

[@Fishin_Rn]

Solid macky brah. Enjoyed the vid

[@CookinWithSquirrl]

Great stuff man! I am glad you were able to limp in and you show great class with the way you handled that issue. Also that dinosaur of a mackerel! Amazing!

[@stephenlatimer1428]

wat awesome after sale service from both companies. nice to know that type of service still exists from companies n their reputation is important to them. well done to those 2 companies.

Wooh real monster Spanish, what lure that you used to catch that monster spanish mackerel, Thanks

[@okay8202]

Those clouds are dreamy

[@daleockert6222]

Biggest mackerel I've seen in Massachusetts is what they call a horse mackerel. And if it weighs 5 lbs , it's a monster ! LOL Great video

[@masoncassidy9953]

Way to take one for the team Dillon! What a monster! High five from the Monkey crew.

[@Rainersherwood]

WTF!!! thats incredible. we get king mackerel, which are very similar, here in florida. never even seen a picture of one that big. the tail looks like a damn billfish!!

[@JonnyBrooksFishing]

Biggest one I’ve seen landed mate but they get bigger!

[@Rainersherwood]

@@JonnyBrooksFishing brooksy all your GT fishing tips have been working wonders for our mini version here in Florida - jack crevalle. Poppers with upgraded and barbless trebles have been my go to this summer. I run much lighter tackle than you guys, our jacks max out around 10-15kg. But we call them “canal tuna” for a reason. They are psycho and tons of fun to fight.

[@edwardthomasbodkin]

Great video. Love to know what cameras you use to shoot these videos? Really clear and good audio. I guess a GoPro and another camera?

[@benjiwhite1796]

Great video bro keep it up

[@Phil-NomenalJigheads]

What kind of rods r u guys using? I like it.

[@skeegets2]

Pure elation!

[@teamjawsaustralia]

Hey mate what size certate is on the twitch I'm on the way to match the twitch 73/3 with a saltiga 2023 5000 h, do you think the reel is a good match for the rod

[@JonnyBrooksFishing]

I go the 6000h saltiga 23 on the twitch mate

[@teamjawsaustralia]

@JonnyBrooksFishing do you think it is a big difference as the body of the 5000 and 6000 is the same size and only the the spool is bigger, i got 300 meter of p3 saltiga braid on it what should be enough 🤔

[@adammalski]

Which Yamaha 150 is that mate? I have a F150XB. Interested to know incase I may need to have a looky look into it

[@kirkysfishing5992]

Cracking edit brah, How's the grip on the Hulk.. Gilly, you animal. Nearly lost a leg 😂 good to see all boys in the vid.

[@localguy8]

When it’s a new motor n get a problem in the ocean I can understand how you’re keeping your cool. I hope Yamaha steps up to the plate ☮️👍🏻

[@ethanleow1]

What zenaq rod is that on the 29th minute mackerel

[@mikemelina9607]

That P3 setup, was that a Certate and what size?

[@JonnyBrooksFishing]

6k certate mate

[@adamd3319]

For the price and weight of those lithium batteries it would be a good insurance policy to keep a couple extras onboard as a lifeline.

[@jakereiland]

On that little dinky rod too 😳

[@nickcunningham860]

Good to see the boys at it. Stay safe x

[@ownvideofootage]

What a catch!!!

[@paulnichols9592]

Maybe an Aux motor Brooksy?

[@gripnripfishing866]

So as a keen fisherman that spends bulk time on the water you support your local VMR team by being a member surely which is also handy when dramas like this happen, 1 free tow a year.

[@JonnyBrooksFishing]

There’s a bit of fine print around the 1 free tow isn’t there? Up to a certain distance free, every hour after that $360 i thought? I could be wrong

[@gripnripfishing866]

@@JonnyBrooksFishing something like that, but that's better price of mind than relying on an electric to get you back to phone range

[@JonnyBrooksFishing]

That was always an option mate but the electric got me there haha. Tight arse aye 😂

[@Maleektube]

Lve the videos keep the good work going ❤

[@harrygoodenough]

Sick video! You still running tasline braid or what are you using these days?

[@JonnyBrooksFishing]

Running the nomad braid these days mate, loving it. The panderra for heavy stuff and the ammonite for jigging and lighter casting

[@Nomad_joey]

What the setup please bro? Like main and Leader? Thanks

did someone take the monster fish? hard to give that up

Heavy issue to have honestly I've done 2000hrs on my first yamaha and apart from oil changes ever 100hr never put a spanner on it. Was on my commercial crayboat.

[@JonnyBrooksFishing]

That’s what i was after when purchasing a yammy also mate. Hoping they can find some kind of solution as I’m shitting myself everytime I’m out wide waiting for it to happen again

Хорошая рыбалка 👍 но эти очень громкие крики напрягают, конечно. Хотелось бы более спокойных уравновешенных эмоций.

[@simonheading7586]

You handled that incredibly well mate. You didn’t shit can anyone…. You just made people aware that motors can break (which is not ideal when you’re 90km’s offshore) Glad you got home safe.

[@dp7148]

Great video thanks for sharing. Bit of poor form on your behalf mentioning the issue of the Yamaha that you don't want to make an issue. The responsibility of your vessel and crew is yours not Yamaha, with break-downs a part of the business. Did you call VMR and ask them what the procedure is if this happens again and you need do need assistance? if you prepare for it you will never need it.

[@JonnyBrooksFishing]

It’s a brand new engine haha and they aren’t cheap. Like i said I’m not making a big shit show about it as all things can break but I’m also not gonna pretend it didn’t happen. VMR was my last resort, could’ve radio called them but didn’t want to unless all other options were exhausted.
