I always wanted to visit Australia and in 1994 made the journey from Michigan in the US. I went to Cairns and Sydney, I loved every minute. After watching your videos (especially the one in Kimberly) I now have the bug to go to western Australia. At 76 years I'm afraid I'm too old. I'll have to rely on you and your videos.
That clear glass bottle that Fran picked up is called a 'Flagon'. They used to sell them everywhere and they contained cheap fortified wines like Sherry, Musket. Port and other old person wine drinks. The favourite bottle of 'Wino's'.
My gosh! This is definitely one of your top ten episodes based on location and content. Man, oh man......to sit in the shallows amongst all those beautiful sharks. Absolutely epic! The memories you two are making...... It breaks my heart to see all the ghost nets😢
Don't ever stop what you love doing, you have traveled to places I've never seen before and when you see it for the first time, so will I, thank you Strick and Fran I love watching your videos🥰
From the early 60's to the late 70's my family would explore Lake Superior in our 26' cabin cruiser from ice out to ice in! We could sometimes go days without seeing another person. Those we did meet on our adventures were a special breed to be sure! Although the Geography is much different, you two are living [on a much Grander scale! 😀] the same type of life I once had. It's Great that I'm getting to ride along and see some of what you're experiencing! Your weekly vid. is something I always look forward to!😃
those shells are so cool , you should add some of the smaller ones when people buy merch as a surprise . You are still going with that old broken rod lol you have to keep it now and make it a wall hanger when you get a home . You will have so many stories to go with it . One day you will look at it on your wall and it will bring you happiness and a smile to your face .
I love your videos and I'm really jealous of what a wonderfully crowded country you are allowed to live in, please keep on watching every video. I can't believe what a paradise you have there and I'm sure like never before that I'm going to visit Australia! Thank you and best regards! Henrik
It's always wonderful to see the beautiful places where you travel, but it's also very sad to see even such remote places full of rubbish. Keep up the good work, I love your travels and I love you guys!
Next time you go junk- combing, look for something to make a "split" for the broken fishing rod handle. Open up the break and insert something in each piece. If you have some adhesive, bonus! Love you guys!
So refreshing to find this channel this morning which is about the adventure..not just the hosts..excellent..I'm still.in bed here in the whitsundays watching you guys..great content
I look forward to seeing your video every week, 😀 feels like we are with you guys, just beautiful photography and countryside, and then you got fran getting dinner 😀, have fun , god bless , no croc's
I am so impressed with Fran with her fishing she knows exactly what she is doing great to see oh and also a great b2b beach kitchen chef keep it up guys great work
Love you guy's show . Grew up in California, spearfishing and surfing. Now, I live in Tn. And literally just walking in from deer hunting . It's very cold here now, but I have a B2b sweatshirt keeping me warm . Stay safe, awesome videos ❤
@strickandfran Every time we watch your shows, I can't resist wanting to be spearfishing with you guys . You guys are living a true fantasy, just beautiful scenery...
As soon as Fran said "looks crocky" i was happy. She has the experience and needs to trust in those instincts. There's cold climate wilderness in places like Canada/Russia, but not many tropical regions quite as remote or sparsely populated as this. Thanx for sharing this adventure and showing us some of these places. Beautiful work.
I’m soo jealous right now, though I am in a beautiful place myself here in the Rocky Mountains in Canada and off to do ice fishing in the morning. It’s just so warm and inviting where you are. Thanks for these beautiful videos ✌️🇨🇦
I find this lifestyle so relaxing...I am sure it's not all fun and games but these videos relax me. I wish I could take a shot at living like this. It's the way we're meant to live. Simple, off the land.
What a contrast to here in Western Australia we are having temperatures in excess of 49 centigrade or 120 fahrenhheit in the Pilbara region at Marble Bar
This must be one of your best episodes!! You two are such a promising inspiration!! Thanks for taking an old warrior to places where I have never been!! God bless and keep you safe 🙏🙏❤️🩹
You're welcome, guys. Thanks for gathering such wonderful videos for us who will never be able to actually visit such amazing venues. HAPPY NEW YEAR! duck
No doubt the best video yet. The new camera angles, the multiple kinds of music and the zoom out ending, fantastic! Excellent editing. Thank you so much for the work you two put into this channel. Much love from Oregon!
Absolutley brilliant,,, missing the Salty Dingo,,, but damn you can go far now! ...wow so many places to stop but no time to see on this long haul trip.... gotta come back to all those shipwrecks and plane crashes at the point of Auz, (Torres Strait)
Please, please, find a small piece of hard wood, not far off the diameter size of that rod butt end, then shave it down so it fits snuggly into the rod and butt end, possibly with a slight twisting action, if you have any glue or can create some from any kind of sap from a tree or bush, it would certainly help you to use the rod back to its full potential, for make sure it would go into each end's of the rod by about a good inch or so, then bind both ends up with tape, or if you could magically come across it a piece of washed up piping that would do the same job. 💪
I know it’s -hot as -it -can -get- in the -Down under -right now ! And it’s as-cold-it-can-get-North to Alaska! Can’t help but make drastic plans to come down to look for some Reds!
A born Aussie (i'm a Yank - can I use Z's?) adventuer and a marine biologist with a wonderful accent in English finding a way to show us all what could, or might be like living on the of survival or touring some if the remotest parts of the world.... You guys are great. Thanks FOR SO MANY VIDEOS from Oklahoma, USA 😎🤙
I enjoy the content you show us who can never go there see what astraila has too offer folks like you two whom live there. One day i would love too meet up with you and your wife. I would love too try her cooking. Thank you for all you do i will keep watching..
OHHH WOW you 2 are amazing and have really great easy listening and watching content! Such a great journey! Please also share the bad too. I know it has its ups and downs while on the water.. such a great channel here!
I have been watching you guys for couple days now honestly keep it up this is my dream. This is living!!! so beautiful i love the videos keep them up !!!!!

The two of you have the best job in the world.
Sorry Fred
It's not a job if you love what you do, they say.
@@mooseknuckle8334if ya make money from it it’s a job regardless if you love it or not
@@LowTide941took the words right out of my mouth!👍
It’s notta Job it’s a lifestyle that they make money from…… 😮😊
It's a kind of meditation watching these videos
Nice to see people who have and take the step to explore and do something they love. good on you guys
That clear glass bottle that Fran picked up is called a 'Flagon'. They used to sell them everywhere and they contained cheap fortified wines like Sherry, Musket. Port and other old person wine drinks. The favourite bottle of 'Wino's'.
You guys show me parts of the world that I didn't even know existed. I love watching your videos.
My gosh! This is definitely one of your top ten episodes based on location and content. Man, oh man......to sit in the shallows amongst all those beautiful sharks. Absolutely epic! The memories you two are making......
It breaks my heart to see all the ghost nets😢
Thanks so much for the nice words mate 😊🙏🏼
Thanks! I look forward to every weekend for the latest chapter. Safe travels.
I'm sure having Fran with you made the trip much more enjoyable ? Beautiful lady!!
17:05 😂😂😂😂😂 Fran shaking Strick's hand
Don't ever stop what you love doing, you have traveled to places I've never seen before and when you see it for the first time, so will I, thank you Strick and Fran I love watching your videos🥰
Thanks so much for the constant support and comments mate 🙏🏼😊
The 5 minute or more breath dive is amazing.
I smile every time I watch your videos. Why?? Because you two have the most beloved relationship. Gotta love it! ❤❤❤ Kerry from Ft. Worth, Texas
This is truly a joy from the heart.❤
What a great way to start 2024 seeing and watching your beautiful work on these amazing places.
Jack! Fran is the best catch yet. Good on you mate. You guys rock . Skin to win . 😅 Thanks for the vids ...

Jack is just a wise man. Fran, you are beautiful. Have a good trip
Sharkray, incredible. The plastic washed up everywhere is awful. Thanks for highlighting this.
look forward to another year of watching your adventures. Simply amazing
About 20 years ago I fancied the idea of selling everything and do a 5 years circumnavigate Australia, I love you're travels and Frans shells, cheers!
It's always wonderful to see the beautiful places where you travel, but it's also very sad to see even such remote places full of rubbish. Keep up the good work, I love your travels and I love you guys!

Please, please, find a small piece of hard wood, not far off the diameter size of that rod butt end, then shave it down so it fits snuggly into the rod and butt end, possibly with a slight twisting action, if you have any glue or can create some from any kind of sap from a tree or bush, it would certainly help you to use the rod back to its full potential, for make sure it would go into each end's of the rod by about a good inch or so, then bind both ends up with tape, or if you could magically come across it a piece of washed up piping that would do the same job. 💪

That beautiful enormous conch shell appears to be even bigger and in better shape than the one in the bucket at "Hugo's Place" !!!
What a beautiful country Australia is, i was a ten pound pom in 66 i should never have left..
Same but 1965. Still in oz!
