The fish engravings near Eagle Rock are genuine. First recorded in the 19th century. Beautiful area.

@ScottysGoneWalkabout Год назад

Oh really? That’s awesome. They did look pretty legit but I figured since it’s such a easy access spot for people in boats, that perhaps someone drew them in modern times.

@fatmanfaffing4116 Год назад

40 years ago my Military Police platoon did an adventure training exercise; paddling Canadian canoes from Windsor to Wiseman's Ferry, camping along the way. It was a memorable experience. Watching your video brought back a lot of memories.

@seanwilson6729 Год назад

Love the vid. Loved in the area for a long time. Your Yowie comment brought back memories from a long time ago. I grew up in South Africa, went to Scouts etc and joined Mountain Club, loved hiking. Slept under the stars on river banks and on mountains in summer. Moved to Aus with my parents when I was a teenager. One camp out with friends in Royal Nat. Park - stories of Yowies abounded around the camp fire. It was summer and tent space was limited, so I elected to sleep outside. During the night, I heard "footsteps" and was petrified. Froze in my sleeping bag and eventually opened my eyes to see deer walking around the campsite. I am back in South Africa and can sleep safely under the stars again, Yowie-free.

@Andyb2379 Год назад

That’s quite some river. I’m always amazed at how unspoiled these places are. Having a number of health issues in my life at the moment & feeling down, always brings me happiness seeing you out enjoying what I describe as paradise.

Sorry to hear you’re not feeling well! I too love escaping to wherever these camps take me to. I also watch a young lass named Claire who solo camps in the wilds of Wales and it’s so vastly different to Australian camping… She’s amazing though, worth a look if you need cheering up, her channel is WildBeare. I hope you have some improvement in your health soon 😊 Cheers from NQ

@AnthonyDunk Год назад

I love the Hawkesbury and all that sandstone! One of my favourite places to explore - except for where there's the dreaded Hawkesbury River mud at low tide. Also, those drawings of fish looked authentic to me. There are many recorded Aboriginal sites around Cowan and Berowra Creeks including middens, hand stencils and drawings in caves right near the water.

@dudemanismadcool Год назад

Winter outdoors adventures are my favourites. If you get clear weather with nice winds, the sun through the day is always enough to get the padding off, but a fire at nights is not only enjoyed but a necessity, and the mosquitoes non-existent.

Greetings from Wisconsin, USA! Nice drone shots. What a beautiful area. At first I wondered how you could be in salt water on a river, but then saw the headwaters. The Calzone looked so good and the crunch when you cut it i half...oh my! Really enjoyed the video. Can you make a video of you and your wife on a camping trip together?

@cambo123451 Год назад

"On ya" Scottie. Love your work.

@nmg00dwin Год назад

Scott - for tidal fishing it’s best to try starting about 1 hr after low tide with a window of about 2-3 hrs. Also lures do work but fresh bait like pilchard, prawns and yabbies do best. If you are fishing lures I have found that soft plastics with added flavour work well. Good luck next time. Great vid as always!

@philmenzies2477 Год назад

Also, winter time the best bait is live. Fish are lethargic and need something to get their attention. Lures and dead bait are good options for when the water warms up.

@ScottysGoneWalkabout Год назад

Thanks for the tips mate

@rodgeorge7244 Год назад

@Lukeslittletribe Год назад

Just got round to this. Great video mate. I like that you were honest about the boats zipping around in the are and leaving the sound in. Too often I've tried to edit out the sounds of cars and planes in my vids ... but it's the reality of being out in some of these places. It's still so beautiful in a place like that even when it is a bit more developed then what you'd be used to. Also cracking weather.

@Frozty Год назад

I've been looking at dry duffle bags for a little bit now and that S2S bag is real nice, but WHEW the price tag comes with it. I think I'll most likely end up going with the dry bag company that Gatewood Brown (fellow river adventure youtuber, fantastic videos) started called Remote Designs, imo it's probably the best "bang for your buck" dry duffle and backpack I've found so far.

Love the video Scotty, I see a lot in your videos that when your fishing you pretty much stick with one retrieve, try letting the soft plastic fall to the bottom then hop it once, twice even three times count to 5 wind in the slack and repeat, gives off an injured bait fish kind of vibe found I’ve had lots of luck with that and remember to keep it random!

@garywood702 Год назад

Another epic trip on the books! You are quite fortunate to live so close to so many wonderful locations. That calzone looked scrumptious, I'll have to give that recipe a try! I guess by the on-line description of a yowie I might look a bit like one to some, (except I have hair everywhere except the top of my head) but I can assure I was not anywhere near your camp. 😆😂As for the fishing? I've only fished salt water once from a boat. We went out quite a ways and the deckhand handed me a rod with a large shiny pyramid shaped weight on it with a hook attached. He told me to drop it over the edge of the boat and when it hits bottom to bring it up about a foot or two off the bottom and jig the line a bit. I did as instructed and began catching black sea bass with astounding regularity. I have no idea if such tackle or method would work in your location or not. From what I recall I believe the tackle I was using has the appearance of a herring to game fish?? All I know is that I had a great time and even caught a striped bass that was a keeper. The first one of those I caught was about 42 inches long and the captain said it had to be released due to slot fish fishing regulations it was over the maximum length to keep. I caught a few more, but they were under the minimum length to keep, but finally I caught one that was just right. I ended up with one fillet from that fish and it was cooked and devoured with gusto by my family that very night.

Scotty, huge fan of yours from the early days of you naming your places and eating orchid tubers. But yowies don't exist! Given how much time you spend in the bush and how often you worry about them, maybe its worth setting a trail camera up. If I'm right, over time you'll learn it's your mind playing tricks on you and it should ease. There's thousands of camera traps all over NSW every night and nobody has ever captured a "yowie". And if I'm just some stuffy nosed sceptic and you're right, think about the RU-vid money and satisfaction you'll have proving types like me wrong! I live on the Hawkesbury and fish it regularly if you want tips by the way. Also got heaps of gear you can borrow and a decked out kayak with sounder and all. Would love to see what fun you can have with it. Tight lines next time mate!
