      Great video and thanks for the updates. It would be nice to know where you're filming at. But I understand that you don't want to be inundated by a bunch of yahoo RUclipsrs. But how about after you leave, you give the location so we can all enjoy going there ourselves? Cheers!

    U guys are inspiring. I'm 70 and after raising 4 kids, feeding, clothing, and housing them I nearly ran out of time to do some fairdinkum adventuring. We have traveled the world and done some amazing stuff. But u guys have taken it to another level. I reckon I still got a few years left to attempt some serious back-to-basics. Love ur work guys....

    Thanks for another fun video, your energy and enthusiasm for nature is contagious!
    With that being said, as some other people have pointed out in the comments, The Great Adventure content is much better than what you are doing now. One reason is the variety of content, because you were moving around a lot on the boat, so we got to see many different places, but even more important than that, it was the story of the great adventure that was so compelling.
    So that's my recommendation: rather than simply making cool nature videos, tap in to your current storyline, or create a new one, and take us on that ride. Your story, including your own struggles and triumphs, Fran's story, with her struggles and triumphs, and your relationship story, with its struggles and triumphs. You don't need to explicitly describe the stories, but simply show them to us.
    Ultimately, we can watch anyone fishing on an island or spearfishing. What makes us want to watch you is your amazing personalities and the stories of your lives and adventures.
    With great respect. 🙏🏻

    • @Rolaids649
      @Rolaids649 2 года назад +2

      This is well put along with... I love the moments of your nature documentaries along the way. I think in our competitive world often we take an either or view and end up trying to compete against each other what actually is(or could be) a beautiful symbiotic relationship, just like your Gobi and pistol shrimp. It really is the relationship of you and Fran and the relationship you both have with nature that brings me here to watch.
      I can watch planet Earth and I can watch spearfishing but to see the passion along with the adventure in nature, well that's why I come here. I honestly believe you guys are doing more for promoting the authentic view of loving the world we live in than most commercialized attempts. Just keep being you!!!

    It has been interesting seeing some of the comments. Guessing a few of the dreamers thought Fran and you had split, so they were gonna throw their hat into the ring and chase her up! Lol. Dream on, Boys! 😂😂
    Love your work, Mate. Enjoy ALL the channel variety. Wether it’s Castaways, Solo Strick, or Az in the big boat. Brilliant, all of it.

    Bluefin Trevally (omilu) & Bone Fish (oio) are loved by fisherman here in Hawaii. Mainlanders are afraid to eat bonefish but all you really have to do is scrape the meat with a spoon to make fish patties. Or you can cut off the tail & take a tolling pin to squeeze out the meat like toothpaste. Frying is the default way to cook either

    So you came full circle on the glorified mullet. There was so much that I liked about the first part of the bone fish story. The fact you weren't in awe of the fish and then you went ahead and ate it which was the most epic part. The Billion Dollar Industry surrounding fishing for bone fish must have had a near death experience watching that meal. I loved the "Glorified Mullet'. I would buy merch. with "Glorified Mullet" then showing a bone fish imposed on top of the meal. So you wanabe be a gangster?
