We're on here adventures is all about sharing the adventures of my friends, family and myself.
As I get older, Im realising the thing I enjoy the most in this world is the challenge of trying to hunt and sustain myself on fish and wild game. There is nothing more rewarding to me than enjoying a meal you have harvested yourself.
I'm not sure where my travels will take me. But I do know I'll have a fishing rod in one hand and a rifle in the other looking for a meal I have harvested myself. I'm sure it will be one hell of an adventure!
Thank you to everyone who has subscribed and supports the channel. We really appreciate it 🤜🤛
Hi mate sorry for the late reply. I'm running a shimano tiagra 50 with 80 pound mono. The rod was a gift from a family friend. It's an angler rods 24kg line cast I.G.F.A. Do you chase makos?
Good hunting mate. It’s a great feeling knowing the freezer is getting topped up. Geez that GoPro made feel a little motion sickness😆. Congrats to you and the Mrs on the arrival of your lad as well. Back into the whiting soon hey. Keep up the top vids as well. Cheers 👍🏼
Cheers legend 🍻 haha I know hey I couldn't believe it that I accidentally put the gopro onto a weird setting, little bit disappointing. I was hoping for a better buck, but I'm just as happy to have some real quality meat in the freezer. I definitely need to take the family out soon and get some whiting. Cheers mate 👍
Nice work on the deer, you are so lucky to have a mate that's willing to teach you and share his property. I am resigned to the fact that the only way I will get a deer is to buy one from behind a fence. Welcome to the world Ollie!
Cheers mate really appreciate it 🍻 where are you from? There is some really good public land hunting in Victoria if you ever find yourself hunting there 👍
Thanks mate 😁 I'm so happy to hear you love fishing with your dad. Hopefully you get many more amazing years fishing with him. I still love fish with my old man and now I have kids of my own I'm so happy I get to do it with them too. Thanks mate, tight lines 🤜🤛
Awesome video footage man! What a cool 😎 looking mako🦈 Love the blue on the top of this beauty 💙 I would love to see one jump up close in person like you did right here! 😀
@wereonhereadventure6358 Ikr. You're welcome. 💙🦈 May God bless 🙏 you and stay safe. I became a fan of yours since I first started watching your videos! I am a new subscriber to your RU-vid channel. Keep reeling more of your videos and short videos. 👍✌️🙂 💙💙💙💙
Hey mate great video, just wondering how do you know which parts of Alpine National Park are state forest and therefore available to hunters? Are there maps or something that you use? Just wondering as I plan to go sambar hunting there in the future and am aware that only certain parts of the park can be hunted.
Thanks mate 🍻 jump on to the more to explore Vic app to find out where you can and can't hunt it's really handy. But when we are in the bush we use an app called hunt stand to track where we go. Both apps you can download areas off line so you can use them without internet. Hope this helps mate 👍
Another quick question, where do you recommend going to enter the park and what's your typical method for getting set up? I'm yet to go sambar hunting so trying to learn as much as possible.@@wereonhereadventure6358
@@wereonhereadventure6358 Scope?? and , you know the problem with freshwater fish? Not enough salt, LOL, but true. That was a AAAAAAA looking trout, beautiful, really awesome.
@justme.9711 haha thanks heaps for the kind words mate 🍻 I'm definitely more of an ocean fisherman, you can't beat the salt 😆 Shaun runs a Leupold vx5 hd 4-20x52. Hope this helps mate 👍
Hi mate, there are no pubs in yalata. It is indigenous land and alcohol is not allowed. I'm pretty sure the closest place to get a drink is in the Nundroo road house which is about half hour away 👍
G'day, yes we eat mako sharks. They are regarded as the tasties shark to eat. Unfortunately after fighting this shark for an hour it busted off my line 😩 hopefully next time 🤞👍
Sharks 🦈 in the water your in the boat on the water Uz gona need a bigger boat But all kidding aside that’s cool Can you eat makos What do you do with them once you get em????
@johnsichler6112 haha cheers mate 🍻 we eat mako sharks. They are regarded as the tasties shark to eat. Unfortunately this shark busted off our line an hour into the fight. Usually we tire these sharks out and then it takes a bit of effort to get them in the boat. It is definitely a big process 👍
Thanks legend 🍻 I always appreciate your comments 🤜🤛 yeah mate I don't think we would have got that one in 😆 It was huge. If we had another hand on deck, we would have given it a crack haha
great hunt lads , my only criticism it looked fairly dry the countryside i mean, I am so anti-fire in the dry weather and my agenda is for us hunters we can enjoy that life in Victoria but a few more campfires causing bush fire and campfires will be banned totally and while they are at it I'm sure access to public lands for camping and hunting will be "reviewed " I usually stop hunting end of spring and I don't start again until winters kicked in I will never have a fire when the bush is dry it's just not worth the risk
G'day mate, I couldn't agree more you can't be too careful when it comes to fires. This was our only fire this trip and it was about 1m away from the river to cook our fish. We assessed the risk and we found it to be appropriate 👍 thanks for your comment mate
G'day mate, we park our cars at the designated camp sites and use the quad bikes/ATV's to travel through the dunes and along the beach. This place is unique as we are allowed to use bikes. Using bikes is better as there is less chance of getting stuck in the sand dunes. They give us peace of mind knowing we aren't going to get get into trouble. Hope this helps 👍
Just got back from yalata, that storm was epic and the rain was sideways. Its a shame the fishing wasn't great and the wind mixed with the weed made it one of the toughest years i've had all round. 4 soapies, 4 nice gummies (1 toothpick) 1 ray and a baby bronzie.
It definitely was a challenging trip mate, I can say it was my hardest. When you book a year in advance it's always a roll of the dice with the weather you get. Im happy to hear you got some fish on the beach mate. Hopefully next year is a better year 👍
G'day mate. It just comes down to weight and how much we were capable of carrying out. We had a 5 hour walkout up the hardest mountain we've ever taken on. Our packs were already full 20+ kgs, + the meat + the trophy. It was alot. If we didn't take the trophy, a lot more meat would have been taken. Hope this helps 👍
Thanks mate 👍 I still can't believe how perfect that shot was. Everything just fell into place. That would be great fun in thick bush with a lever action. Hope you're getting a few mate 🍻
Great trip just wish the government would realise the economic and personal benefits deer hunting has and stop culling deer on the advice of those that would have every introduced animal removed from the land scape but them selves in these areas that hunters frequently visit
Good stuff men! Your patience paid off and stoked you were able to experience the best bit of pain and suffering possible (full packs with a representative stag!) Thanks for sharing.
