The reason they use vegemite in bait traps up north is because it doesn't attract crocodiles. If you use fish food or something that smells like meat or fish, the crocodiles come and eat the traps.
Living in America it's always great to see everyday things in your part of the world. The drone tour of the creek was especially interesting. Such variety in fish and plants! 👍
Been setting up a new aquarium, and was researching rainbowfish, as I kept some store bought ones last time around (near 14 years ago).... You have inspired me to go "fishing" again... I used to go out to the creeks around Brisbane some 25 years ago, mostly just after Platty's, and whatever else I could find. ....Time to go fishing again, with new advice. Thank you, you're a gem :)
So jealous of u guys in Qld being able to catch rainbows in your local creeks! Nothing to catch here in SA except murry rainbows and they have no colour. I swapped back with my husband😂 i took the rainbows back and he took my African peacocks, they just wernt my thing. I love Rainbows and planted tanks. U just know when it feels right!💜🐟
Love the outdoor video. Keep them coming. Always interesting to see other sceneries from around the world. Now with the drone, the videos are limitless! Thanks,
Hello Kaity, that was nice to see, I would like to live as near to the forest as you do. I think having nature so close is my favorite part of Australia. Thanks for sharing it with us. Have a nice and blessed weekend!!!
Gday Kaity love your videos your adorable keep up the great work, love the info you give out, I'm a promite man myself, look forward to many more videos.
Hi from the U.S. I love rainbowfish and they can be very hard to come by and expensive in stores here. I'm so jealous you can just walk into a creek and find them 🙂
Love taking my dogs walking along little creeks like that and watching them have fun. One loved swimming and one just like to lay down and cool off in the shallow water. Never thought to put a net in before.. Not much of a hunter but love dirt bikes and amazing views from mountains u cant get to with out walking for 8 hours to get there.
cool video. I use to have a brown trap the same and use to catch everything from red platies to 12 inch eels. this was about 20 years ago at kedron brook. very surprising how quick big eels would get in the trap. 😊
Hey..."Vegemite!" That reminds me of the song lyric..."He Just Smiled And Gave Me A Vegemite Sandwich." I used to think that a "Vegemite Sandwich" was some thick sandwich, filled with vegetables, that a weight lifter would eat. But you showed it in a little jar. 🤔
@@Kaityscichlids Okay, well thanks for that info. Would you happen to know what Colin Hay is singing about when he sings..."Travelling In A Fried Out Combi?" What exactly is "a fried out combi?"
@@gregsolomon haha no worries! It's referring to those old Volkswagen Combi vans, and by "fried out" my best interpretation would be either really hot or old and overused
@@Kaityscichlids Ahh okay, thank you. I can remember when VW vans were around, but I'd never heard the word "combi" attached to them before...it must be an Australian thing. That explains their beat-up VW van at the beginning of the video ("a fried out combi"). A great band, they were Really big in the U.S. when they first appeared. Colin Hay is a great songwriter. Watch the video "Down Under" and notice the huge "Vegemite Sandwich" the big guy tosses to Colin Hay...which is why I thought it must be a large "mighty" vegetable sandwich for weightlifters. And then you pulled that little jar of "Vegemite" out of your fridge...and it took away the image I had of a large mighty "Vegemite Sandwich."
Might also be worth bringing a tub/tray that can fit the bottom part of the trap nets with you in the future. That way you can fill them with water and keep the trap in the water when inspecting fish without having to go back and forth from the river. Obviously I know they're fine, as you know as long as they stay damp fish can be out of the water for a surprising amount of time. But visually it looks better for people who are new to fish, plus I'm sure it's more comfortable for the fish too 😅
Yes I totally agree!! It's funny how you just get desensitised to things overtime, so it's always a good reminder to think see it from other peoples' perspectives. I think I'll definitely do that next time!
That was fun, Kaity! Than for sharing. It's really a pretty area. Your drone footage going up the creel was awesome. Looking forward to your next one. Happy Monday! ~Ron
You've given me a good idea the go pro and dropping the trap in front of it for my own videos, accidentally helping other fish youtubers haha your one of my favourite aussie fish keepers
Awesome. Well done with the drone. I have an older Mavic Mini which needs a phone attached to see anything. The app needs to be updated before I use it again though. Who knows when that will be though, I just had a total hip replacement so it will possibly be up to 3 months before I can throw on a backpack and go hiking again. Car camping could be sooner though. I still haven't built the above ground pond I wanted but I have the pump and filter for it. Anyway, great video as usual, love your work. 😃
Thank you so much :) I think that older Mavic Mini is the one I used to have too - still a really good drone! I hope that you have a strong recovery and can get moving again soon! And hopefully not too long until you'll be able to get your pond built too
I enjoy this kind of content but I would enjoy it even more if you'd bring a specimen container along :) Less time out of the water for the fish, and since they are clear, you can film through them :)
Did you ever do Kedron Brook? It used to always be loaded with platys and swordtails and plenty of natives too. Could be a fun video to do to highlight invasive species.... always nice to stumble across other Australian fish folk....
Definitely like this type of catch and release. If you could find another way the fish weren’t out of the water or getting stressed as long it would be better though, maybe keep the net in the water and lift it in and out as you take fish out it. Just a thought 👌🏻
I don't want you to say anything, but I hoped you put all those fish back into the creek.😅😮😮. I live in a colder place, but we have fish that can't go back in the lakes and rivers and creeks also . I used them for fertilizer for the garden and house plants.
A way to keep the fish alive that I've done everytime with out a bubbler is to grab a couple native aquatic plant's and leaving them in the shadiest spot
I love these catching rare fish in their natural habitat videos. I hope you do more of these.
Thank you :) I most definitely will since so many people enjoyed it!
@@Kaityscichlids Awesome! I look forward to seeing more of it. Such videos are very calming.
Today I learned that Vegemite is so popular in Australia that even the native fish love it too...
Hahaha, it's so true!
The reason they use vegemite in bait traps up north is because it doesn't attract crocodiles. If you use fish food or something that smells like meat or fish, the crocodiles come and eat the traps.
marmites better lol

Thank you!! I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed it 😄
I think it's great that you have so much knowledge about the native fish. It's good information to share, especially on the invasive fish.
Thank you so much :)
Hahaha Vegemite on bread to catch Australian fish. What a classic!!!
Been setting up a new aquarium, and was researching rainbowfish, as I kept some store bought ones last time around (near 14 years ago)....

Thank you, you're a gem :)
Awww, that is awesome to hear!! It's definitely a great pastime :) I hope you enjoy getting out there again and find some nice fish
Awesome video Kaity! Love seeing Rainbowfish and other species in their natural habitat
Thank you so much 😄 I'm glad you enjoyed it 😊
It's a good video, better than some I seen. I like the under water shots. It showed me the environment that these fish come from.

Finally. Exactly what we do for fish for the outdoor ponds. Many varieties around seq and you have done this before with Jason
Your videos are so happy and fun, loving the outdoor video. Love the channel from Brad in Ohio, USA
Thank you so much Brad!!
We also collect ornamental fish in Brazil, congratulations on the video
That's awesome to hear :) Thank you heaps!

That sounds lovely :) Getting out in nature is always so nice, I love it
I loved the drone footage Kaity! Pretty lil fishes too, & what a wonderful place you visited!
Thank you so much :) I'm glad you enjoyed it :D
thanks Kaity, I enjoy your vids
Thank you 😊
I'm jealous of the warm weather it's cold in Texas right now. Enjoying the vids.
try below freezing weather. Texas is warm
@@andrewramero4560 I've been in Texas when we were in the negatives... What's your point? I've also dealt with 112° here too.
Thank you :) Luckily you guys will be warming up soon!
Years ago I used to go wild catching at JC Slaughter Falls. All we ever got was swordtails.
Great to see the natural beauty of where to live. The drone footage was a welcome addition.
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
You see proper aussie fish lovesss vegemite, oh and don't forget the bird making it's grand entrance 1:07 😊 thank you for the great video. 🤙
Hahaha, Laila always has to be apart of it! Thank you 😊🙏🏼
Great video Kaity 🤩❗️That creek looks amazing and fun to explore🐠🐟🪷 ‼️ Awesome drone footage too 🚁👏
Thank you so much Joey :D
Schönes Video mit tollen Biotopaufnahmen, sowohl Unterwasser als auch mit der Drohne! 👍
just stumbled on this channel, I think Kaity learned a valuable lesson, Home point should have no obstructions above as well as next too.
Most definitely!!
cool video. I use to have a brown trap the same and use to catch everything from red platies to 12 inch eels. this was about 20 years ago at kedron brook. very surprising how quick big eels would get in the trap. 😊
Great video
If you take a really small glass or acrylic tank it will making.viewing and videoing the stuff you catch way better.
Thank you!! That is an excellent idea - I'm definitely going to do that next time

Thanks for sharing. Always like this type of video. Reminds me of my trips to the creeks back in the home to get fish.
That's awesome to hear :) I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Yes mate, I'd like to see more of these fascinating videos.
Thank you :)
Catching fish with a Vegemite sandwich is the most Australian thing I have ever seen😂
Hahaha, it sure is 🤣
Yes, more like this. Fun.
There will definitely be more to come!!
😊😊very beautiful scenery amazing place. Nice video amazing and beautiful fishes kaity
Always launch your drone in an open space so it can return to home if need be.
Cool video !
That's great, catching aquarium fish in nature is just a dream here in middle Europe 😊
Thank you so much :)
Good video. Catching native fish sounds exciting.
Man that drone footage is incredible
I love what you do I'm a big fan and fish keeper ❤
Awww, thank you ❤️ I appreciate it!

Hahaha, that's awesome! I'm always doing the same when I watch others videos 🤣
@Kaityscichlids haha yeah, it's a good way to learn more, I just redid my animal corner in my room today, it's looking good as (atleast I hope so lol)
Hi KC. Unique upload. Only suggestion for the next one would be the use of a specimen container for better viewing of each species. Great work!
Thank you!! I'm definitely going to do that next time :)
I really like the outdoor videos. The drone footage was great too.
Thank you heaps, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Those Blue-eyed Rainbow fish are beautiful!
They are seriously so gorgeous!! I couldn't believe how many of them were there :O
Vegemite looks so unappealing. LOL. Great video. Nice photography.
Vegemite is so good. Best toast spread in the morning.Or evening. Or any time between. Also great in sauces and other cooking.
Thank you! And LOL, it definitely isn't the nicest colour haha. It's also definitely an acquired taste
Hi Kaity thank you for this awesome video you brought back some childhood memories for me watching you from 🇦🇺(Australia)❤.
That's so awesome to hear :) Thank you heaps
Wonderful. Love the outdoor, nature videos. Drone footage is great
Thank you so much :)
Ohh very cool Australia river!
Love the content!
Thank you 😊🙏🏻🙏🏻
Great outdoor video Kaity l liked the drone video keep them videos coming Kaity ❤
Thank you so much :)

poor lil fishies got smooshed, i will keep them in my prayers for a full recovery.
They were ok I promise!! I was very gentle handling them and made sure they were all ok :)
So fun - thank you!
Hi Perth. Love your video looks like you had a great day
Great video Kaity, I wish had creeks around here that I could go out and catch your fish for free. Let’s go 100 K 🎉
We are certainly very lucky here! And we are slowly getting there :O
You come from the land down under and gave the fish a vegemite sandwich. LOL
Love the Video, Great to see what's about the area your in, and what types of fish there are. ❤
Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it :)
Love these videos :D keen for more
Thank you! They'll definitely be more on the way 😄
In love with your accent
A good idea for this video would be to bring the old rectangle tank (from the pond) to display the fish better
That is actually an excellent idea!!
Love how you had no reaction to the bird landing on your head, at the start of your video.
Hahaha, I'm so used to her shenanigans lol
Snags & Vegemite sandwiches definitely Australian fish.
Great vid! I love it when you go recon! keep it up girl! you rock!
Thank you heaps! :D
I think you are a cool person and I've never been to Australia but it seems to be a very nice place to live I also have African cichlids
Awww, thank you so much 😊🙏 It is lovely here! Hopefully you will get to visit one day 🇦🇺
Nothing wrong with 60K if thats what you want - Good Luck mate - Fun Hobby for sure !
Next time you go out take a clear specimen container with you, so you can more easily see the fish you've caught in the water. Enjoyed the video!
I'm definitely going to do that next time! Thank you :D
Is that the crossing near KSHS? Pretty sure my biology class would head down there to gather data for assignments and such
So cool!
Kaity the go pro is awesome. Did you see how fantastic the blue eyes look.
Loved the video! Was waiting for the upload ❤
Thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed it :)
Yeast extract attracts fish 😮❤
some great footage. i like your content very much!!
Thank you so much :)

Not long for you now!
Sooooo cooool! Awesome video❤
Thank you :D
Love these collecting videos

There’s still K-mart in Australia? You could put those sword tails in your pond.
Yes we do! Kmart is super popular here :) And I could definitely put those guys in my pond
That's funny as, even our fish can't resist a Vegemite sanga 😂👍
Hahaha, they love it!
ARMY,, really great 🐠🐠🐠🐠🐠🐠
More videos like that! ❤
Definitely more coming!!
So cool 👏💯✌️🔥
