So happy you have eaten. I was feeling very stressed for you. That was no doubt a pivotal point in your journey. With a constant food source, incredible skill set and strength of mind, I hope you’ve got this now. Although Gina is also an amazing person and in a similar position to you.

@jaydmorawski4799 Год назад

In our household you’re referred to as ‘MacGyver’ for obvious reasons. Love the way you’ve gone about it on the show- and cheers for these episode breakdowns, they are very insightful!

@OutbackMike Год назад

Thanks Jayd!

@Daniel-zn3xh Год назад

Mike the smoker was QUALITY, and a simple and incredibly effective set up when it was all up and going. My family cheered when you finally got the eel - well done

@OutbackMike Год назад

Thanks Daniel!

That was really interesting what you said about coping strategies. We didn't realise just how important the mental side of things was until we saw the show.

@adamwellington3849 Год назад

Thanks for answering that question in detail mate. Totally makes sense. Can’t wait to see what happens next week.

@carriewhiteduck1478 Год назад

We were cheering you on, I was so relieved when you caught the eel. We're watching from Canada and cheering you on.

Thanks Carrie😊

@kerryannpankhurst2423 Год назад

We were so glad to see you catch that eel, and brilliant job on the smoker! Hoping for the best for you, Mike.

Would love you and Chris to do a Tassie/lutruwita road trip to real wild takayna country

@seanalexander9531 Год назад

It was great to see you get some food mate - I was definitely cheering when it happened!

@OutbackMike Год назад

Thanks. Yeah I needed it😂

@aussietribulationgirl7177 Год назад

Any of the top three could win now Im gunning for you all. So glad you got a feed into you. Doesnt look like an easy spot to fish at sometimes these things are luck of the draw for location as well.

@OutbackMike Год назад

Thanks 🙏 🎣🤷‍♂️

@lukeo5908 Год назад

Bravo for having the guts to be honest about why you’re out there - to win the $250K 👏

@empireofpeaches Год назад

You mentioned catching food means having bait for a few days. I think your good prep is about to pay off! I hope to see your smoker full of eels and trout in the next episode

@OutbackMike Год назад

Thanks!

@sillysighbin8279 Год назад

Hey Mike, i liked your smoker setup.. but they cut through you making it. Can you talk more about how you made it?

@OutbackMike Год назад

I hung the eel fillets and the frame (skeleton) vertically into the smoker from the top (with wire through the skin). Then kept the fire going just enough so smoke was visible coming out the top of of the bark cylinder. After 6-8 hours the fillets were golden and tasted great with a beautiful smokey flavour.

@ppewqeqwrqwtefdwedasfwetrd2579 Год назад

youre my favorite of the show, i was kinda worried you wrnt finding food. but was amazed everytime i saw you make something.

@OutbackMike Год назад

Thank you!

@user-gr8dm8tv5h Год назад

Hey Mike! Thanks for sharing more of your story and time on Alone. I was curious about your transition to fishing at night - does this mean fishing is categorised separately to hunting, given hunting wasn't permitted at night per Aus alone's regulations? Probably just semantics, but I presumed "hunting" to be an umbrella term for any capturing of animals. If not, it looks like you're the first person in three weeks to attempt night-time fishing, and it clearly is a good change of strategy given (I believe) eels are active at night. Then again, aware we only get a tiny snap shot and soundbite of all the contestants' activities, so this is all conjecture!

@OutbackMike Год назад

Yes. Land hunting is regulated by different agencies compared to anything in the water, which is managed by fisheries.

@arkmstick3495 Год назад

There are places in Tasmania it can take an hour to move 50 metres. Horizontal scrub is no joke. 🤣 Gotta heckle ya Mikey, it would be un-Australian not to.

@bennn82 Год назад

Hey Mike I was just wondering if you could tell me where you got the sleeping bag pants you were wearing on Alone please? Many thanks 🙏

@OutbackMike Год назад

Yeah. They’re great. I bought them in a market in Kathmandu. I can’t find them for sale anywhere on the internet but if you can get you’re hands on some they’re brilliant.

@trishi1322 Год назад

Hi Mike, loving the series. I just can't work out how all your equipment for filming stays charged up. Do you have a huge supply of batteries?

@OutbackMike Год назад

We had a larger battery that we could recharge the small camera batteries from. This was occasionally swapped out with fresh batteries like when they did med checks.

@trishi1322 Год назад

@@OutbackMike thank you, I wonder every episode - I had visions of production team sneaking in during the night to swap out batteries :) Hope you were able to safely store the smoked Eel. I grew up in the bush in Tassie and when we camped, we would have possums running all over us at night trying to raid our food supplies!!

@stevecrop6264 Год назад

It’s devastating to lose a fish at the last moment even recreationally, can’t imagine when you are 20 days starving, so glad you got some, that must’ve been some sort of elation. Did you think about just pinning them through the head to the ground with a knife or sharp stick when you didn’t have a net, that’s what I was thinking when watching.

@OutbackMike Год назад

Yes but I was standing on a narrow ledge and wanted to get it across somewhere flatter to do what you’re talking about. Yeah it’s more stressful losing a fish in that situation for sure!

@mchammer9084 Год назад

mate I started jumping up and down cheering that you finally caught that eel.

@OutbackMike Год назад

Thanks mate. Me too!

@janeadlington6581 Год назад

Ha ha I was so immersed in this that I freaked out when I saw the black dog in the background. I thought he was on the show and a black animal had appeared!

@OutbackMike Год назад

Ha. Yeah, that’s my dog Ollie. He wouldn’t forgive me if I went into the bush without him.

@Lana_Warwick Год назад

lol I was the same, Mike! there's food behind you! But after what we've seen so far, he'd prob trip over & scare it off while stripping down to his reg grundies 🤣

@danielowens2539 Год назад

There will always be food continue what you're doing awesome continue with your aura some people cannot continue when you climb up the volcano down into volcano is not active it's hard to get out of the volcano that's where we met more continue what you're doing handmade boat or Noah's ark if not take a break with your wife and kids we all love you 😇

@heartshapedisle Год назад

Hi Mike. An eagle eyed friend saw an anomaly in Episode 6 3:12 in. Is that the huon pine dredger on left of screen or a houseboat? Probs stock footage but was funny for us who live here.

@OutbackMike Год назад

Yeah. There was definitely no dredger anchored off my site😂.

@hayfordokiniiri3596 Год назад

I've been wondering it there's actually not much wildlife in Tasmania, or at least in your area. It seems there aren't any rodents or shellfish, there don't seem to be a lot birds or land creatures around compared to other seasons of Alone in different locations.

@OutbackMike Год назад

Yeah. There a certainly a lot of places with more animals…..and fish!

@Andysfishing Год назад

Do you have an agreement with SBS for these episodes on your channel? I don't think they will help your channel. Just FYI.

@OutbackMike Год назад

Thanks. It’s possible. It’s all a learning game. I ask SBS to look over everything to make sure I don’t accidentally give away spoilers unintentionally in advance. Like the general public I see the Eps for the first time as they come out on TV.

@steviefordranger198 Год назад

I have been pondering the fishing events and knew, as you said, that everyone would have been flat out trying to catch some. The editing gives the impression of you all not fishing so much until a certain time. Now about skill sets. I still think there is a lot of skill needed to catch fish rather than just the fish suddenly being on the bite. Did you take into account variables such as where in the water column were the fish feeding? Would a float have allowed the bait to do two things: 1. Sought fish feeding higher up in the water column and 2. Kept a caught fish from diving down into the snags? A large enough float (dry disk of wood) would have prevented them diving. Trout are not too fussy about what's floating around. I wonder if drop lines of a short length may have achieved the same result.

@OutbackMike Год назад

Yes. I tried all those things.

@paulpemberton9015 Год назад

In hindsight do you wish you spent the Kayak time and energy elsewhere? It was impressive I must say

@OutbackMike Год назад

If I knew the future and that it would not bring in food then I wouldn’t have build it. If I hadn’t built it I would always wonder if it would have worked.

@paulpemberton9015 Год назад

@@OutbackMike Fair enough, can’t die wondering. the rod was legendary mate. Seemed rigged imo

@heartshapedisle Год назад

We are so going to miss Kate. The fishing changed because the season was changing. 🪱 rule. Thank you so much for these updates. FYI I love takayna country and want it protected for all.

@OutbackMike Год назад

Thanks, yeah. It’s beautiful Country that’s copped a lot of grief.
