A great trip, on a beautiful creek with some solid banter. Loved it mate. I especially loved the old Army story. Point of the story; never get so sleep deprived that you start seeing your mates eyes falling out of his head. Got it.

@alfbittner6489 8 месяцев назад

Enjoy your video. I'm not sure of your location and the law, but with all those fish rising, live bait, like night crawlers, grasshoppers, small frogs. Exposing yourself to the fish will spook them, long poll with line attached, hook and bait, stand behind Bush or tree and lower your bait. Another tip trying to cast in tight areas, is to use your rod as a slingshot. Hold your lure, aim and let it go. Beautiful country, good water loaded with trout.

@TheSillySwagman 8 месяцев назад

@markwis5285 8 месяцев назад

I was thinking the live bait be it a worm, insect or a yabbie from under a rock. Once you gut your first fish use some backbone or small meat portions to catch another......

@BuckMckawtheotherone 7 месяцев назад

Just a hint my friend. All fish will face upstream, anticipating food to flow downstream into their mouths. You were fishing from the upstream, and they saw your moustache from afar, so they just laughed at you. It's best to sneak up behind them downstream, while they look upstream, and to cast upstream, and let the lure run downstream. Did you learn those survival skills from Gordon Dedman? Love your videos (I'm 69 yrs old from Canada, eh.)

@TheSillySwagman 7 месяцев назад

G’day mate! I’ve been enjoying your comments while I’m getting back to a few. Really appreciating the feedback and knowledge. Yes, Gordon Dedman did teach me most the bushcraft I know, he’d kill me if he saw that shelter 😂😂 And yes, I’ve had a few blokes reach out to share some tips of catching trout, I’ll move upstream next time. 👌 I bet you’ve caught a few trout up your end of the globe mate 😆

@theholycow8448 8 месяцев назад

That was an absolutely beautiful spot mate. If you're going asado style over the fire, spin the split stick around so it forms a V Then tie off to the outside sticks that are through the fish. Cooks even all over . Fresh trout is delicious.. really delicious. Good luck with it all legend.

@TheSillySwagman 8 месяцев назад

Ahhh ok nice, I’ll try that next time mate! Cheers 🙌 I had wondered how it would go with the section under the split stick but that’s how I had seen it done. It did cook fine but that does sound like a better way of doing it. Thanks legend!

@theholycow8448 8 месяцев назад

@@TheSillySwagman the sticks through it hold it nicely mate. It all goes belly up sometimes if the fires a bit hot though. You have to tie something around the bottom of the split to stop it going further though. Sorry forgot to mention that. You cooked it perfectly. Keep living the dream we can't, it's the only thing that keeps some of us sane.

@andrewjerin4048 8 месяцев назад

Hi mate loved your location. I've done a lot of small stream trout fishing and would like to give you a few tips. Firstly you need to finesse fish these smaller streams. I would use 4lb line. No sinker just bait or small soft plastic. Only fish upstream as the fish are facing upstream. You come from behind. If you can present a scrubworm or mudey above the fish without spooking them, letting the bait naturally drift down stream you will catch plenty of trout.

Great video as always mate. I wanted to ask where abouts did you get the leather belt you have? Not the rig but the belt with the brass buckle. Cheers, have a good one.

Thanks mate! The belt is from RMK Leatherworks. Aussie guy and his team!

Hey mate loving the content. Just wondering what type of telescopic rod and reel you use?? Cheers 🍻

Cheers mate! It’s the Jarvis water rat from Anaconda. $29.99. You’ll get a few good fish with it before it fails on you 😂 Worth it for sure. www.anacondastores.com/fishing/fishing-combos/telescopic-combos/jarvis-walker-water-rat-6-1pc-2-5kg-telescopic-combo/90118823?gclsrc=aw.ds&gclsrc=aw.ds&gad_source=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIxZL-846bggMVDg57Bx1YrQR0EAQYBCABEgLek_D_BwE
