      Thanks Richard. Yeah we did it all in a day. We usually leave the ramp around 5am and we were back by 6pm. It’s a full day but definitely possible to fish and spear. Just need to tune it with the tides. We travel between 70-100km out depending which reef. 😀

      Hi Mark, sounds like a fun trip you goh planned. Yeah, that setup you got will definitely do the job. The humble Saragossa has a lot of grunt and I have first hand seen plenty of quality fish onboard using it. 😀

    Hey Jonny
    Dave here from Townsville just love your vids just awesome
    Question when you catch the Nanny’s and Reds do you drift over the mark or Anchor
    Cheers mate

    • @johnnychowjc
      @johnnychowjc  Год назад +1

      Hey Dave, hope all is well in Townsville. When I bottom fish for reds and Nannie’s I like to keep the engine on in reverse so I can stay vertically straight up and down with my baits to keep up with the current/drift. It allows me to fish 3 lines down with minimal tangles and I can cover ground at the same time. Tight lines mate.

    Hi Johnny,
    I am in the market to purchase a jig rod for eggbeater, the boys were using white rods ... is it possible to tell me their setups for the reds you were catching. I have 3 different reels I can use. I have a Daiwa BG MQ -10k Saragossa SW 14k and a Stradic 6XG
    They are all egg beaters and I dont want to invest in another overhead rod and reel. So I am after a rod to be able to catch the nannys and reds and other deep water reefs. I will be coming up to Airlie for a fish in Early Sept and staying at Talbots place. Would love to meet you and have a fish with you if time permits.

    • @johnnychowjc
      @johnnychowjc  Год назад

      Hi Sinan, I personally like using spin reels myself as you can probably guess. The Saragossa you have will be more than adequate to reel in 95% of the fish you will hook on the reef. I would match it up with a shimano terez 40-80lb rod 7”2 in length. It’s got enough grunt to land big fish but still sensitive enough in the tip to feel any subtle bites from reds. Talbot is a top bloke and knows his stuff. I’m sure you will have a great trip. Tight lines mate. 😀
