MY NEW LOOK BOAT + TIPS FOR BUYING AND FIXING YOUR TINNIE

I catch up with my old mate Pete, who some of you might remember from my earliest Jack Guide DVD. He helps me prepare for our round Aus trip and teaches me a few tricks for looking over a Tinnie!

I bought a $1000 tinnie and trailer now it’s a fishing weapon. Loved doing it up myself and putting what I wanted for me and my boys in it. We only go up the rivers and creeks but it’s a blast. Can’t wait for the day they say mum were taking the tinnie out today 😃

[@HanginOffThaReel]

[@robgordon0072]

I met Peter the other day and through your recommendation he is going to be fitting out my new 390 Explorer with new cast deck back and front and storage areas. Good luck with your trip and looking fwd to your upcoming videos.

[@tonypaine4958]

Getting close now for the big trip looks like everything is coming together

[@mrejhar]

Good luck with the trip. Me and the mrs have been fishing around the country for the last 12 months. Currently living/working/fishing in Nhulunbuy. The jack fishing is epic here along with everything else. If you decide to tackle the track hit me up and ill show you around the place.

[@jamessippel7489]

Hey Johnny, I got a friend that bought a tinny a while ago. He has recently had to fix up a hole in his boat. The reason was that there was a lead sinker stuck under one of the struts on his tinny. The repairer told him that its not instant corrosion but it takes a while. Sinkers, swivels, hooks and even a coin will cause corrosion in your tinny over time. It'd pay to have a check every now and then under the struts on your boat and very regularly give it a wash out with fresh water. You don't wanna be sinking in the middle of a crocodile infested creek with your family in the boat! Have a safe trip to you and your family, looking forward to seeing your adventures. 👍

[@mylurebox]

Thanks James. That’s a great point to raise re. The corrosion from other metals and terminal tackle ;) cheers mate

[@mikaerekiriona8167]

Awesome tips, gives me that little extra knowledge for when I do decide to buy a tinnie

[@mylurebox]

Good to hear mate. It’s nice to hve a few things to go off when ur looking at a hull eh ;)

[@maffafafew]

Great looking wrap mate

[@slow_diver]

exciting trip!

[@beersnbanter]

Love the new wrap!

[@mylurebox]

Cheers Matty ;) had to slap a bit’a lipstick on the pig

[@daveychipsngravy]

That splash guard for reels is a great idea. I went out this morning little bit of chop and my right arm is soaked.

[@owecameron8056]

👍 Awesome video very helpful info.

[@troypeach6617]

Great vid you will love the loader ive got one had since 2018 enjoy

[@carlkerruish2534]

I really like the rails ,makes the sides of your boat a lot higher

[@trentos_easton]

Just curious if you put foam in under the deck? I'm in the middle of a restoration of a 5m aluminium boat and just beginning to look at the foam options

[@stephenlatimer1428]

the wrap is Johnny all the way. gud boat loader as well and structure inside the canopy. if i had known u needed a boat loader i wud have given u my fathers. he bought the same with winch and it is not used any more, it just sits in my mothers shed.

[@justingrimson5750]

Hi John, I think i saw on a video regarding your boat that you shortened your Minn Kota to free up deck space. Did you have any problems following this procedure? Especially with the GPS....

[@mylurebox]

Hey Justin. I haven’t had any issues with it myself. I did the cut really carefully to no saw the cables. But it’s a big win for me and my rod angles too when I’m casting :)

[@thebeerhunter817]

Saw that video yonks ago, question is was it really the Tweed !!!!

[@onehellofafisherman9629]

Its scary how big some of those crocks appear when your in a little tinny, I wouldn't be game to stand up on this one up in the Proserpine River, some of the old boys up there are wider than your boat and a lot longer , 🤔

[@paulbyrne4214]

Awesome..just an fyi Crocs can get ,half their length out of the water...so be careful mate

[@dondeestalaleche4054]

Loved the vid man! What are your thoughts on the Shimano sienna FG reels? should i get one?....

[@victorbitter583]

Best reel on the market in that price range. Go for it.

[@dondeestalaleche4054]

@Victor Bitter Thanks! I’ll have to get one

[@victorbitter583]

@@dondeestalaleche4054 Either that or buy a savage gear combo for around $120 Aus. Thats your best bet for quality at a good price. Put some carbontech drag washers in that shimano and it will be sweeeeet.

[@leemccullough558]

Contain your batteries in plastic boxes that way if you have a spill the acid wont eat your boat e.g contained and rubber under the batteries for shock absorbtion on road 😊

[@Ar0n444]

You should do a collab with Andy’s fishing and wild cook while you are up north

[@trentcrompton9527]

👍

[@sainoq351]

seeing this vid makes me want to go out in the tinnie...

[@TheMydamaye]

Nooooooooooo! you have the same decal that I just ordered now I'm looking at another one I'm so happy🥲

[@mylurebox]

Awwww mate! They’ll be slightly different I’m sure. This one is a mates one off artwork... I’ve seen some similar displays of overlapping fish and they’re killer. If u love those fish, get it. They are great.

[@richo1177]

How much roughly for a pair of wraps mate, got a punt I want to do cheers

[@micksfishin4787]

The new tinny look is a ripper mate its gona get scratched when you fishin up north to your home
