  • Cool video and where did u fish??

  • This was on a fishing charter overnight north of Parker reef from Mackay Queensland middle of the Great Barrier reef,

    Cheers Greg

  • The water is like glass!!

  • Was some awesome weather, and great reef fishing, won't forget that trip in a hurry,

    Cheers Greg

  • WHAT A TRIP you guys are so lucky to have done this

  • Was another top fishing trip, with 4 and 5 way hookups, and heaps of fish, not to mention great weather,

    Cheers Greg

  • Thanks, was definately an awesome fishing trip, and heaps of big multiple hook-ups. Been back to those fishing marks, but just hasn't fired like that again. Sorry did once, we filled up a big Spanish mackerel esky in an hour, That was also pretty insane.

    Cheers Greg

  • awesome fishing guys!!

    where was this and how long ago?

  • About a year ago, but definately some awesome fishing action, we did an exploratory trip about 150 kilometres offfshore from mackay, Queensland, Australia in the middle of the Great Barrier Reef. This was near Steven's reef, Make sure you check out some of our other fishing videos,

    Cheers Greg

  • what kind of gaff are you using it looks different

  • Just a normal gaff, about three feet long, nice and easy to handle,

    Cheers Greg

  • Woohoo 10000th view

  • Even better, Almost 1 000 000 views now overall, thanks!!

    Cheers Greg

  • They even look like True Reds on the sounder mate!! Looks like they fight about the same as well. a 10 kilo mutton feels like a 50 gallon barrel of stone!lol

    The one U call a "COD", really looks like our Nassau Grouper!!

  • Thanks, The fishing is excellant on the Great Barrier Reef and we are spoilt. Our Cods Proper name is Estuary Cod, but bit silly when we catch them 50 miles offshore, and the other name we use for them is Goldspot Cod. Make sure you check out our Coral Trout. My favourite fish on the reef, and unreal eating. Although great eating and I'm sure yours are as well. Good luck and tight lines next time when out fishing,

    Cheers Greg

  • They even look like True Reds on the sounder mate!! Looks like they fight about the same as well. a 10 kilo mutton feels like a 50 gallon barrel of stone!lol

  • Yes we do,your Red Emperor VERY closely resembles out "True Red" Snapper also, if it had a spot on it's back near the tail,it'd look exactly like our "Mutton"Snapper.Muttons here aren't quite as bright red as "true Reds".They are one of the seas best eating fish,still nownere near as good as Cobia tho...Cobia is tops in my book!!

  • I actually catch a nice Red Emperor, only one in this video, about 5 Kilos or more. You can see some broad stripes on the fish. The Majority of the fish we caught were Largemouth Nannygai, which have a black spot near its tail. These are a nice pink in colour. Thanks for the Info.

    Cheers Greg

  • Really beautiful,flat calm day!! It's my life's ambition to go over and fish the Great Barrier Reef!

    U have a lot of fish that resemble species we have here,in Florida. Your Cobia are exactly same as ours. I think U also catch a fair amount of Wahoo as well,do U not?

  • We are really spoilt with the Great Barrier Reef and an awesome variety of reef fishing, diving and boating. We don't get too many Wahoo, but alot of Spanish Mackerel which are the same/similar to your kings, and cobia are the same. We get alot of coral trout, which I think you guys call Grouper. Do you get anything similar to our Red Emperor, a very highly prized reef fish, which everyone dreams for!!

    Cheers Greg

  • Half your luck, Definately some great fishing and boating on the great barrier reef, Good luck back, although the weather hasn't been kind lately,

    Cheers Greg

  • Top trip, fish and weather

    Cheers Greg

  • Hey Greg another quality video keep em comin!

  • Another top day, some of the best fishing with 5 way hookups on quality Nannygai.

    Cheers Greg

  • you cant win em all...good on you guys for giving it a go tho...he would have been a welcome addition too the esky total tho :)

  • Hi, We try and release the big cod, but unfortunately pulling up from the deep they don't survive, but some awesome fishing with consistent 4 & 5 way hookups!!

    Cheers Greg

  • Tried venting his air bladder but no luck, even towed him to revive, but pretty difficult when you pull them up out of 50metres of water. But definately a top trip, with some awesome fishing,

    Chers Greg

  • top shelf stuff Greg...it was well worth the wait!!!..by the looks of it...everyone (including you) got their arms stretched :P...how did the cod go getting released???...thanks for posting the vid :)
