Man after a long stressful day at work your videos are the perfect way for me to unwind Scotty. Thanks for everything you do and the effort you put into this channel mate. So many of us here appreciate it mate. P.S take me with you on a trip!
Never disappoints, mate. After being inspired by your adventures, I'm off on my first overnighter on Saturday. Thanks for the motivation.
How you feel over night alone

Better than listening to someone lol can connect to nature.
Watching this during a quiet moment at work, what an extreme of differences. Looks so peaceful and calm!
Amazing country and vid Scotty , next time a fish takes you under a snag/rock let out some slack line and quiet often they will swim out . Yew 😂
Spectacular country and the changeable weather made it even more beautiful. One of your best videos yet!
Nailing those trout! Yes, those CNOC bags are the best. I like the fact that one can open the end of the bag with the handle/slide closure and easily fill the bag. Place your filter of choice on the other end and filter away. I bought two of the 3 liter bags and keep one in my kit at all times. I'll just hang the bag up if able and place my wide mouth water bottle under the filter end and go about other camp chores while keeping an ear out for the progress of the pour. When I don't hear the water falling in the bottle anymore I know it's time to check it. ;-) Great location btw! The American 19th century woodsman, George Washington Sears a.ka. Nessmuk wrote in his book, "Woodcraft and Camping" that simple ingredients and simple cooking of them is best for the outdoorsman. ( like your trout and potatoes) George was born the next town over from where I live and grew up playing amongst the local Nipmuc native American tribe camped on the nearby, Webster Lake (Chargoggagoggmanchauggagoggchaubunagungamaugg in their native tongue) in Webster, MA. As a young adult he moved to Wellsboro, PA. I don't know if you've ever read his book, but I find it one that I repeatedly read not only for the useful information contained in its pages, but it always takes my mind back to a time when areas of America were a much wilder place with far fewer people and much more game and fish. The book is available on Amazon in paperback for very short money. Great video!
Great to see how well you are progressing as a fisherman, Scotty. congratulations!
Thats my favourite creek! Well done for hiking down and back. Gods country for sure.
Bread is a little thick but it looks good. Gotta get your flatbread skills built up while you are at home so you can do it properly even with the inconsistent heat and small pan when camping.
Hey mate love the show you should’ve let the dough rest abit (in a bowl or plate covered in cling wrap) after rolling it out and it would’ve been perfect!
Im still amazed to see Fjällräven clothings being worn by so many outside of Sweden. The brand is quality but when i was a kid the brand wasnt *that* big. It was for swedes. Feeling proud.
How beautiful that High Country is! Thanks for sharing Scotty!👍🇨🇦😎 Awesome pita!!!
Best meal he made so far.
A stunning portrait of the High Country......what a pristine and exceptional part of the world .
Your gentle footprint on this land sends a message to those that follow can respect this place as you do.
Some really beautiful photography reminiscent of some Scottish Highland streams where fishing is not so free !
Taking one for dinner is also a great reminder to those trophy hunters who measure success by the fish in their bag!
the comment about us flying through space on this rock with other bits of rock flying about, they are bound to hit and how fragile we are. And then you say how nice that sun feels. Makes you appreciate life. Best of luck from England.
Mate, this must be the most fish I have seen you catch in an episode. Great video
26:35. To quote Tom Gleisner - "That looks like an ingredient".
Classics “look at that flow rate” “gin and tonic time”
Hell yeah Scotty ! Watching this as soon as I get home and crack a beer !
Wow what a lovely scenery.
Daytime cooking is so much better. Gives your videos a more stressless vibe.
Great to see you doing a spot of fishing 🎣 in your videos. You find the most epic spots that fishermen would work up a sweet over and it would be offensive not to have a cast. Love your content 👌
Beauty of a trip. The pita bread was a great lookin meal. Keep on fishing. Cheers from B.C. Canada.
Great adventure buddy, those multi night trips are very entertaining, thanks for sharing
Those big pools with the scrubby areas are where you want to fish mate, for that situation you could try extending your leader and adding a float or a second bigger fly, floating it down into there from upstream. Good to see you getting some catches, those big fella's are hiding in those big pools. Looking forward to seeing you catch a donkey one day! Also, 11:33, the bottom of that fall- bigger fish will sit there.
When I see that running water I want to go packrafting !
Another epic one Scotty! Thank you.
It's so good to see that country looking green and all that water! Last time I was there was just after the 2020 fires and it just broke my heart to see everything ravaged by those fires
Just got back from a week down there. Mixed weather - beautiful one day then snow the next.
Glad you're enjoying summer Scotty. Your videos never disappoint.
Love your content, you bring me such solace and peace, never stop being you matey
Good stuff scotty surely breaking camp wastes a lot of enjoyable time
Your bush cooking is elite! 10/10 video!!
Fishing looks great ✌️🏴
Another great video. Love that landscape, Scotty. Thanks for sharing your adventure with us
Thank you Scotty. I always get excited and think YAY when l see you have posted another one. Keep em coming my dear fellow Aussie.
Love Mountain Culture beer, and that tent looks like a great piece of kit. Love that part of Australia, even though I'm usually heading through it on a motorbike and not hiking.
That was some good fishing! Another awesome adventure my friend 🤠
Thank you for sharing.
All the best to you.
Scotty found his fishing mojo!
Awsome Scott,been watching you since you started and your fly fishing has improved massively.keep up the great work mate👌👍👍👍
Absolutely amazing videos you make, so peaceful and unwind watching them. What a life, makes me miss my adventures with my brother when we were younger.
Another great trip Scotty, getting good with that fly line mate
Really nice in the high country. Pretty good fishing with all those bites. The fish dinner looked so good. Making pita bread from scratch when camping...pretty impressive. That shooting star sounded amazing. I've seen a few, but never as big as you described. Very relaxing video and enjoyable as always. HooRoo!
Love watching your journey and commitment to fishing, from a lot of vids trying and coming up short to this.... Love it. Just proves stick with it and you will learn.
Awesome vid Scotty the High Country is amazing for anyone who hasn't been there you have to go there it is breath taking .
Always look forward to the opening sequences of your vids Scotty. Instantly transported
i rmember found you vid when you having 83K followers , now already 110K , its keep growing ! love your channel!
Brilliant Adventure to wind the day down and watch!
Outstanding mate! Beautiful country, nice work on the trout.
Thanks Scotty.. another great video mate. Fish On !!!
Nice.
You're even looking like a fisherman now.
So much more capable than when you started.
Thanks for the video, most enjoyable.
Another great video, what an amazing trip. So many trout.
I love your show. Now I love it even more with the Biltong. 👍👍👍 I would love to make some Emu and Kangaroo Biltong with the proper Biltong spice. Beautiful river and camp site.
Nice to see this river isn’t infested with carp!
Would love it if you could share some tips on how you find spots to camp in the Snowys. I love it up there but usually go to NP campgrounds. Would live a short hike and pitch my hiking tent near a river and do a bit of fishing.
That video was great 👍 my top 3 favourite videos are the traditional swag camping and the high country fly fishing ones and the new survival video you did keep up the good work mate
Another wonderful outdoor adventure Scotty! Looks wonderful out there. Food looks delicious though
Great video. Thanks for sharing Scotty.
Beautiful video and well put together! I really enjoyed this and glad I found your channel. Cheers!
Good to see you again. Shame about the weather but you certainly made the best of it. Take care, be safe. ❤ Dorset, UK
Thank you Scotty for another great video. Awsome country you live in.
It's just incredible what beauty, what atmosphere you were able to create. This is truly a meditative experience watching you. I myself started making videos about my adventures, so I'm interested in everything.
I needed something relaxing. Thanks Scotty
Awesome spot. Another awesome video👍👍
All your fishing practice is finally paying off Scotty. Well done mate. Awesome country tgere and great weather to be there. Bushyboy Oz.
Really enjoyed watching the video! I haven’t seen many videos of trout fishing in Australia, so it was a pleasure watching! Cheers 🍻 🎣
Wow, pro move making pita bread in the bush instead of bringing it pre-made from the shops.
Great fishing! Slaying them as they say. Cheers!
G days mate how is going, love watching your journey and every new viedo is updated
I really love that you've learned how to fish! I remember having to tell you to keep your shadow off the water. This is awesome Scotty! It gives me hope that you guys can do more than text in acronyms.
Really nice video ,thx from 🏴
Another great Alpine adventure and video Scotty. I hope your back up there next June-July for the spawning run as I would like to see you catch some of the big trout that are running up stream.
Australia is a very beautiful place amazing video the food and the fishing you have it all. Stay safe my friend
Nice time Scotty. That river looked low? Speckled Brown Trout was gorgeous. I love trout. 😋 👍
See you next time 👍
Hey mate first time watcher and I love it!
Just a heads up, if those Worm flies you've got in your box (pink ones) are silicone get them away from your other flies. They'll ruin your whole box of flies
Love these adventures! We’ve been using our CNOC bag/sawyer squeeze combo for about 2.5 years now and we can’t fault it! Flow rate hasn’t slowed down either, we just do a few washes/back flush with demineralised water after a trip and it’s all good. No calcium/crud build up etc.
Just remember to pop the filter into your sleeping bag on those cold nights so the membrane doesn’t freeze on this one 😂
nice fishing, great video, well done mate
Those flys are awesome!
Thankyou for relaxing vid Scotty. Choice of music, sweet 👍Lovely part of Oz, How I'd love to get there! Sneaky trout huh. T.
The key to fishing as I was told was to Match the Hatch......Pick up a rock in the water and see what is hatching at the time and use those lures. The guy was a pro at it ! fun times !
Such a beautiful area and both dinners looked great! Nice video, Scotty, as always. If you want to fly fish FAST, try a Tenkara pole. So much fun!
hey man! Great vid! make sure to keep your rod tip as high as you can stand so you don't have to move so much when setting the hook.
5 stars mate love this episode
Where's your dog?
Is he still nervous?
I always like the cooking but best and love how organised you are!
Mountain Culture make some damn good beers.
I got to meet the original Man from Snowy River, Tom Burlinson on Sunday at 40th Anniversary screening of the movie… pretty special life event
Another great video! Just a quick thought on the fly fishing…I love dropping a nymph 18-24” below that dry fly. Judging by that fly box in your video, those worm patterns can be a good bet as the dropper in rainy weather. Cheers from the United States!
Classic Australian trout fishing. That's a lovely stretch of river. Further upstream I once spent almost an hour casting to a small trout in a pool under a willow (the willow is probably gone now). I tried almost every fly in the box; eventually the fish took a small emerger fly. Small fish but it kept me amused for a long time. :)
i hav 3 sizes of the aluxe hex shaped tents
the largest (megahorn) with the woodstove inside has become favourite for winter car camping
used it up at 3 mile dam and bogong high plains in middle of this year
sheds snow very well, resists strong wind better than a dome and is super cosy inside
for hiking the smallest hexpeak is just that, small
but the next size up hexpeak is good
Hi Scotty, super enjoyable video the fishing was epic. Its great to see you enjoying the fly fishing, theres definitely a time and a place for it and you got both right that time.😃 The fish you were missing on the strike was perhaps your haste and anticipation to lift the rod, take a breath and then do - it could make a difference😉 -Any way Im loving the vids and I couldnt help but be jealous of your location once again😃🤟.........Alex
May sound odd - but I can feel it in my bones, the beauty of this place.
Super Awesomenessssss.and Thanks
Mate, your fishing has improved out of sight, The flies provided by 'Flyoutcast' seems to have been a could investment/placement by them. Congrat on another great video.
Good section that. I've caught many there!
Sir I came across your channel and seen the title of the video and I so glad I did I couldn't hit that subscriber button and like button fast enough. I'm new to your channel and I'm so glad I came across it. I love watching videos like you make sir just awesome. I wished I had one of them little camping books you have. I mean it looks awesome to have with you when you go out and do what you do. And the recipe look awesome as well. How can I get one or do they even sale them in the US. Well sir can't wait for more of your awesome adventures till the next's one GodBless and Tight Lines
Perfect.
Great fishing Scotty, you must have had about 6 or 7 fish. It just shows how easy it is to live off the land.
Living in Colorado we have limitless creeks, streams and rivers to fish but I love the openness of that country you fish there. The ability to see up and down that stream with the views is exceptional. A very good video with some weather too. Great pack trip.
The great thing about Australia, too, is that we have no bears, no wolves, no moose, no mountin lions and nobody with a gun for hundreds of miles... None of our animals can chase and eat you like in North America, so hiking and fishing and camping in Australia is incredibly safe unlike where you are...
@@Funkteon Sweet!
i will grab a cold beer and kick back for this one. 👍❤️🍺🇦🇺
