What a true Aussie champion,, your knowledge, passion and most important the respect you have for the environment... you need your own TV show mate, your something else love the content 👌👌👍
Living the life mate, that's what it's all about. And big kudos for spreading the word about doing it Responsibly and Sustainably so our kids and their kids get the same chance. You're a true Aussie legend. Best series yet, love it.
Love your work, mate. Strick and Fran camped at that exact spot. They spotted that cow at some point. Some nice Barra, and also spotted a BIG croc in that creek! Stay safe, dude. Living the dream! Rob, Tasmania
i did 43 days moose hunting and just messing around and loved every minute .You folks are so far away on a beautiful island maybe pull it over our way. Yes live off the land . Even over here I ate fresh fish and wild chickens caught maybe an hour or two old at the best. So I say ; your a good man. Alberta Canada
Looked like another great day, you really should start anchoring with an endless mooring (endless loop anchor) that will give you much safer access to your boat over a greater range of tidal movement and limit your exposure to the toothy handbags.
Mate aussie is wild and this episode plus this adventure yr on is beyond amazing. On one side there's strik n fran and on the other thez you.... simply awesome.
DUDE! I LOVE this channel! I found it when I was sick this weekend, I would so love to do what you both are doing! Being out on the beach, snorkeling, diving, eating what you catch. True freedom and surviving! The only thing that disturbs me is the freaking garbage on the beaches! That is so sick and maddening! why has the world become such a throw away society is beyond me!.......lol... other than that I really enjoy watching you do what you do!
If you haven't seen already, here is a trip I did a couple of years ago Kayaking to the Tip. ruclips.net/p/PLtJHZztIhg_yuBZAfns9dw3DUzDJJpIli I empathise with you about the experience . Would love to hear more- how long it took, any close calls, how many in the crew, what kayak? Cheers mate
@@BacktoBasics glad to reply, two only , myself and a mate, kayak were Scupper Pro , with hatch fore and aft , a few adventures, a capsize just south of Cooktown my fault , not lashing down a hatch properly, a very close encounter with a croc at Cape Melville , after 6 weeks weather and seas turned nasty , 10 days holed up at Temple Bay , we decided to hide Kayaks and walk to the tip to meet the ferry home , 10 days and 300 Ks later we walked to the tip , following year we went back to temple bay , refurbished kayaks and paddled to tip in under 3 weeks, we also had small triangular sails , which gave a extra knot , regards Peter
I enjoy this aspect of Australia. I live along the Texas coast and see similar environments. Fishing and bowhunting would great ways to fill the lauder here. Only exception is the local waters aren't clear enough to spearfish most of the time.
Excellent video mate, truly what the Cape is all about. Just a heads up regarding the oysters, if you open them on the rock and then leave the base still attached to the rock new oysters can not attach to it. You should remove the whole oyster and then open it or remove the base once you open it on the rock.
Can also use a hessian bag .Put some fish frames or burley in it couple of rocks to keep it at the bottom of the water and tie it up to mangroves . The Mud crabs can’t gets there legs out once they cling onto it 👍
What about letting us fisherpeople know the 'test curve' on rods you are using and type of line down to the leader, type of hook and most importantly the strength of the line used to catch various species. Absolutely love B2B and keep on keeping on. John from Ireland
Living on the coast of North Carolina, USA I love your environmentalisem and you, Strick and Fran showing that even in these beautiful remote places left in our shrinking world, plastic is everywhere! Thanks guys! Also I’m learning a lot of Aussie sayings so maybe one day when I can get there I don’t sound like a dumb American 😂 love u guys, keep it up!
Looking good Az. Is it possible Strick and Fran camped at the same beach on their northern trip? Looks seriously similar, and I reckon they got a few barra in the same spot. Pigs and all..
Nice work Azz but it ain’t a patch on my Friday adventure. I decided I was gunna go to northern nsw to catch a Spanish cause the qld fisheries are clowns. Anyhoo I had to struggle with Gold Coast traffic! That’s worse than starvation or perhaps a stingray bite. Then I launched at evans head and anchored up in the river for the night. It was hot in my half cab. And I almost ran out of beer. Nek day I ran up to Riordans shoal in the dark, risking my very life. Got there and realised I was about an hour too early. Waited till daybreak. I then had to catch livies ✅ get good troll rigs ✅ and get about catching my dinner. I was hungry! I’d had to survive on supermarket cheese and biscuit packs the evening before. Evan had to eat breakfast biscuits. Pickings were slim. Where’s the baked whole fish? Anyhoo I had to come back empty handed and fight my way to the bakery for a curried sausage roll. Talk about stress. Anyhoo if I’m ever up El Arish way can I come and try your awesome produce?
Hey dude great vid. I also grew up eating garfish, one of the beautiful little fish to eat. Not to many people eat them, blows my mind cause they great fun to catch and great eating ☝️
Great episode . Lots of good tips .. just wish you had a soulmate to do it with ( what a waste !!! Lol).... Fran enhances Strick , life's challenges so much easier with a partner . Sent my ex up the Sepik River in the early 70's ... I raise animals these days in France , near the Loire River ... Ex Art HOD... eldest son was an environmental scientist in Brisbane a few years ago .. Good luck mate , love your programs...was brought up on David Attenborough , Bush Tucker Man , Les Hiddens , Ray Mears , more recently Les Stroud . Love horticulture , self suffiency...one of my old students won Gold at Chelsea Flower Show London . Get in touch if you want to xxx

Cheers for the words of encouragement Richard. Longevity of these remote areas is one of our greatest priorities .
Really like the isolation - solitude. Quiet, peaceful, simply completely real.

Cheers Art would love to check that part of the world out one day
@@BacktoBasics You might find fishing in the Gulf of Mexico disappointing, its nothing like the places you fish.
Watching from California, great videos and love the awesome fishing 🎣 Stay safe and keep up the great content !!!

Thank you bro great info
I am so impressed with your courageous treks! Stay well, stay away from the crocs, it would be a great tragedy if we lost some of you!
Hoping to steer clear from losing an arm, leg! Cheers for watching John
Lol. Like the shotty just sitting in the background at the end. Good bit of insurance.😂
Love the expression - The best fun you can have with your pants on!!
AZ, Stay safe my friend and have a good feed.
Great episode! It's good to hear about your mental state (glad it's positive). It's also cool to see you catch a bunch of nice fish!
Cheers Bill, I'm all about having a yarn about mental health! Thanks for watching
Let's see now: sleeping in a rocking boat or as Croc bait? Hmm...rocking boat wins!
I really like your lifestyle and adventures. The place is natural and beautiful. From Thailand 🙏😊
