Toby breaks our fishing curse! - From the high country to the coast 

Just thinking back to my own childhood, these are the kinds of times that would shine in my memory. Still think back to early camping days, waking up shivering in my sleeping bag, but warming up to my mom and dad talking over the sound of frying bacon and eggs. What absolute marvelous experiences for your children! Bruce and Otis

Well done Toby! I wouldn't have thought of putting brown sugar in.

Well done Toby on catching the fish. Another great video thank you.

Great video. Thanks for all the effort you put into these videos. Its great to follow you all on this amazing journey.

Well done catching the Trout Toby. We put a couple of lemon slices and a bit of butter inside the trout before wrapping it in tin foil. A little tip scrape the line of blood off the back bone before cooking use a teaspoon. Great video 👍

Well done Toby fish looked delicious. Hope you catch some more. Pies looked yummy too. Enjoy the snow. Travel safe 🥶🌞

As usual Mike awesome video you give us such a wonderful new view of New Zealand from the air. Toby is once again the man. Congrats on catching a trout Toby. Team Kawerau

Im enjoying your families travels. We’ve moved to Australia and are missing lovely nz and our Toyota coaster. Great memories watching 👍👍👍

Another great video! Well done on the troutToby 😀

Some great East Coast experiences before your journey through the mountains, snow and off to the Tasman sea. Well done on the Trout Toby. Looked delicious and the perfect way to cook it. A bit of lemon, herbs and butter goes well too. If it's a big fish I sometimes remove the fillet to fit it in the BBQ or oven. But usually just gut and cook whole. You captured some awesome drone footage there.

Pan fried trout in butter, garlic and lemon. Yum.

how lucky your kids are ,, this is living👊

Ka pai Toby great fishing 🎣 great video Whanau keep it going ❤

Fantastic video Mike, so wish we could go into that area but sadly with the dog it’s a no go 😢 well done Toby for the fish, now to teach dad how to fish 🤣

*Well done Toby, good sized fish that was. Also, so gutted you didnt film the cow scenario hahaha. Cooked that fish pretty well, I woudlnt know where start, y fish is normally deep fried in batter.*

Glad you caught that fish Toby, maybe you can catch a Kahawi on the coast, the Mokihinui River at Gentle Annie is a great spot for this, looking forward to seeing the excitement when it snows in your next adventure

what a fish

Fantails will often follow you to catch the 'bugs' you disturb as you are walking along.

Well done Toby. I was expecting a kahawai not a nice trout. The fantails are looking for insects that are disturbed by your foot steps.

The fantail is in fact following to grab the small flying insects that are disturbed as you walk along. True fact.

Is that child actually yours!!!!😆😆I just start to think I have Toby work out and boom he comes back with something that seems completely out of caricature to what I thought he was like. "I want to catch the fish but not eat them." Says no one ever. 😆Never mind the fact of lets carry what looks like a kilo rock at times just to throw it off the bridge. 😆

Bro.... Hand in your man card! Hunt gather provide!

on the otherwise of the river is a great little community and you camp there for very little money.

Brown sugar like that?!? What a way of ruining your health! Try soya sauce & chopped spring onions

Showers at that spot are $1 for 5mins
