    What would life be without Fran sporting the loveliest of tans? And that impossibly beautiful smile. The camera loves her and so do we. Life is not a dress rehearsal, so I'm glad to see you both spending your youth so very wisely.

      @Richard Thornhill.... You are so funny. If she was fat and ugly, would say the same thing about the footage? I know for a fact, most guys my age (mid 30s) only come here because she is a hot body with a pretty face.

      I think I found an odd comment about wanting fat chicks - that are fat and clueless. Fran is none of this, so... Fran is the turtle whisperer and seal tamer!

  • @canucklehead0
    @canucklehead0 2 года назад +11

    So glad that you two are picking up whatever trash and plastics you can while on the sand cay! It's a rule with us whether camping or hunting that we leave the place as we found it, or better if there is trash we can pack out with us. I'm sorry your adventure is being cut short, but by the look of the Salty Dingo it's questionable that she'll make it back in one piece being towed. If that big boat has a crane and room on a deck for the poor girl I suggest she sit perched on the deck for the ride home. I hope you guys enjoyed your adventures out on that sand cay as much as I enjoyed watching the episodes you created! I'm glad you are both headed back to safety but will not enjoy the Strick & Frannie withdrawals that will soon be coming. I hope the Salty Dingo is repairable but if I may suggest, if it is going to be too expensive to fix you might look at an aluminium boat with a reinforced keel for beaching, that or a poly boat. For Aluminum boats I was thinking of a Blackdog Cat 680 enclosed, or 670 weekender, or a Stabicraft 1850 or so. I know it's a big switch but if there are more adventures to come (and I very much hope that there are) a boat like that could be paid for by sponsors fairly easily and provide you with a decent boat with the advantage of sleeping protection in a dicey situation. Just some thoughts Mate. As always my best to both You and Fran and thank you for the postcard which arrived last Christmas (Canada post needs some updating lol) Take care - Dave.

    • @canucklehead0
      @canucklehead0 2 года назад +2

      @@thomasgraham5842 I'm not understanding you, I don't know if they get seeds on the sand cay or if they would grow? Perhaps Coconuts but that's all I can think of. Or, are you referring to when we go out camping or hunting where I live? Where we go there are loads of trees, it's a gorgeous area with two large willow swamps and a mall creek that has drinkable water that bubbles up from a gravel bar. I've gone out in Springtime to pick Morel Mushrooms and scout for sheds, it's a stunning area. Contrary to what most non hunters think we don't go blowing the heads off critters just for fun. We (Speaking for our 3 person group) hunt with bows by choice. Typically we'll target one Bull and one Cow Moose and those two animals feed three families and likely more as we are giving away cuts for people who are curious to try for a year. We have two major groups with about 30-40 Moose in a 10 mile square area(possibly many more, it's hard to find them to count). Hunting pressure is light and the animals we take actually benefit the Moose numbers as we generally focus on older animals past their prime, this gives the younger Bulls a chance to breed and form family groups rather than being run off by an old Bull. Taking an older Cow also benefits the area as the younger females will be bred first instead of midway or last through the rut. Hunters are Conservationists.

    After just having spent some time myself on a small deserted island off the tip of Cape York I can relate to the plastic rubbish problem. On a beach no more than 100 metres long there was literally truck loads of rubbish washed up. The poor turtles had a mine field of plastic they had to negotiate to try and lay their eggs. Closer inspection of the labels on the rubbish showed that most of it was coming from Indonesia. Total disgrace on humanity that we can do this.

    Greetings from Malaysia. Im a new subscriber, stumbled on 1 of your video, watched it once.. Then immediately hit the subscribe button..
    A friend of mine from Indonesia did say they eat turtle meat and eggs, and I truly understand your feelings..
    Here I'm Malaysia, a very very small percentages of people living on the east coast of our country do eat the eggs but not the turtle itself. I've tried once, the turtle eggs (out of curiosity) and that was the first and last. Doesn't taste any better than chicken eggs, honestly.. But through the state government educating people not to eat the turtle eggs and through conservation, the rates me@ people here in Malaysia eating turtle eggs are declining fast. The remaining small percentage of people who still eat turtle eggs said, those eggs are a delicacy.. Yet i dont find it that tasty at all.. And thank u to both of u for taking your part in cleaning the beach.. Good job guys.. But can tell u this for sure, "i'm remaining your subscriber.. Heck, i will start watching all your uploaded videos from the start of your channel.. Dunno how many days it will take till i catch up on ur next latest video though.. Lol 😅😅😅

    Loved the intro, the surfing, and that Cuda - what a bit of work! At least it wasn't sailfish converted to Shark LOL! That Skirt for us usually converts into Tuna! Pretty unlucky lol! I would have got the red and white out! Old Morris the lure is always a sure bet! Wow plastic, :(. The turtles dead, interesting story line, Az and crew are also going out with traditional hunters. I would suggest culture and necessity probably drive different view points. I spent some time up in Indo with boat faring folks. The first thing that stunned me was the entire crew could not swim. I discovered this by accident when I leapt off our charter boat and swum to shore for a walk. The poor crew thought I was going to drown. When I asked them about being on a boat and not swimming, they explained to me the boat never sinks because of the wood. All they have to do if it flips or capsizes is hang onto the boat and climb out out of the water. Great footage, loved the cook up, meal to die for, sorry you have only a day left, thanks for sharing the fun, hope the Salty Dingo makes it home to be repaired! Dive safe! 🐟💖👍👌
