TINNY CAMPING THE TWEED RIVER 🚤 - Testing out my new fire pit 🔥

In this video I go on a tinny camping trip on the Tweed River, NSW. It is the first time I have been on the Tweed River so I cruise around trying a heap of different fishing spots and end up catching a couple of flathead.
I also test out the new portable fire pit from LIFEDOO by cooking up a few burgers. If you want to check them out head over to their website.

Just watched this golden oldie again mate, ads too. the snapped Rod, the life doo bbq and the camp out on the tweed. One of your best. 😃🐟🐟🐟👍

[@AusAdventure]

When did you change your channel name mate.

[@TropicalZooms]

@@AusAdventure I changed it a couple of months ago. A local radio station wanted to interview me about my rock pool videos which was a bit of a buzz for me. Long story short, my old channel name was confusing for some and needed to change. Had to pick an uncommon name. Not sure if I really like the new one but probably shouldn’t keep changing it. Hope all is ok up there mate with the floods. 😃👍

Ever since the boarder closure haven’t been there. Beautiful place to fish always hook on. But we always catch and release to keep the numbers up

[@AusAdventure]

It’s is a nice spot that’s for sure. 🍻

Bad day fishing better than a good day at work.

Never a truer word spoken mate. Cheers 🍻

Out there kicking goals mate

[@AusAdventure]

I wish the goals were bigger like in the 70cm plus range 🐟. 🍻

Good start to my Sunday morning. Woke up and here is another adventure with you mate. Great content simply because it shows the reality . You win some and other days it’s relaxing time out on the water and camping. As much as I enjoy seeing what’s on offer up north i appreciate seeing how to tackle things at our door step plus the simplicity 👍

[@AusAdventure]

Thanks Paul. I’m sure next time I’ll have more luck. It was still great to be out in the boat. 🍻

“Lucky I don’t have a fishing channel” lol 😂 It’s how it is mate. Fish don’t always play ball when you want to hey… just subbed… keep those vids coming!

[@AusAdventure]

Yep doesn’t always go to plan. Cheers mate.

[@robertharrowfield9268]

Once again another mint video...... best part is the simplicity of your adventures... and u show the content a lot of other don’t show yeah..... it’s great to land big awesome rod bending fish, but the reality of it is they made 1000 casts to get that fish and only show that... keep up the awesome work. Love the content!!!!

[@AusAdventure]

Cheers mate and your right. I would like to know how many trips or casts some channels do to get their content. I basically do one trip a month and what I get is what I get. Thanks for watching the vids.

[@paulmurray3322]

Hi mate received my stubby cooler and stickers last week, the holder has seen plenty beers already😆 enjoying all your videos, keep up the great work and so looking forward to your next camping with the tinny trip. Cheers Eddy 🍺🍺🍺 👍

[@AusAdventure]

Thanks for the purchase mate. Glad it’s getting some use. I am recovering from my second ankle surgery in as many years at the moment so may be a little while before my next tinny camping trip unfortunately. But keen as to make more for sure.

[@jeffreymorphett]

🤙love it

[@AusAdventure]

Cheers Jeff.

[@bustedoff6038]

great video, just make sure you always check for line behind the prop if you run over it, just gotta check the seals.

[@AusAdventure]

Yeah that is on the to do list before the next trip. 🍻

[@TropicalZooms]

Great vid mate. Watched in full, ads & all. Nice flatty & I like the look of that life doo fire pit. Also like the awning/ tarp over the swag. Buggar with the prop snag but we all do that. Hope all is well. Enjoyed your vid as always. 😃👍🐟🐟

[@AusAdventure]

Thanks mate. I think they still have to work on the fire pit but it was easy to use. 🍻

[@TropicalZooms]

@@AusAdventure Yeh disappointing to see it warp and damage so easily. Oh also have to say that your not the worst fisherman ever. I think I still hold that title. Hoping to lose that title this year. 😃👍

[@AdventureCD]

Nice vid. Bad luck with the rod.

[@AusAdventure]

Thanks mate, rod will be getting fixed. 🍻

[@garrywurst7209]

Nice work bud.

[@AusAdventure]

On ya Gazza. 🍻

[@jamesr5741]

Nevertheless, it's still a great weekend escape. If there's some sandbanks in the area perhaps try for some whiting? Would have been good to see that firepit/stove last more than once haha!

[@AusAdventure]

Yeah I told them it bent and they said they are already working on another one with thicker stainless steel. Maybe I have to do more bait fishing. Thanks for watching Jimmy.

[@alcooper944]

Time to take up lawn bowls mate

[@AusAdventure]

I’d probably be worse at that.

[@bencole9936]

Be careful ... NSW you'll need to wear a life jacket after dark if your on the water

[@AusAdventure]

Didn’t know that. Thanks.

[@TropicalZooms]

Hello mate. Haven’t seen you upload any newies lately. Hope all is well and that you’re travelling ok champion. 😃👍

[@AusAdventure]

Yeah mate had a second ankle surgery and my back is playing up. Hope to be out and about soon.

[@TropicalZooms]

@@AusAdventure The joys of getting old. Glad you’re on the mend mate. In lockdown down here in Nsw south coast. Really looking forward to getting out in my little boat again too. 😃👍

@@TropicalZooms Hey mate, I just came to your channel to ask the same question. Look after yourself and get well soon!

[@xxr0wdyxx]

It’s still nice to get out thou nice and relaxing Awesome vid buddy had a chuckle when your line tangled on prop because It happened to me when crabbing And your not the shittiest fisherman on the gc I’m pretty sure i am

[@AusAdventure]

Your right mate it’s not all about catching fish. It would be nice though.

[@ryansmith9283]

Looks epic mate where exactly did you camp ? Cheers

[@AusAdventure]

Not sure what the area is called but it’s not far from the mouth of the river.

[@glenndavis479]

Ya definitely don't need the bling...our 3.7 + Trailer and new outboard only cost me $1,300 LOL. I made an enclosed fire pit/BBQ from an old 9.5 gas bottle way big enough for me and the missus to cook up a feed and keep warm but we sit a bit closer to it.

[@AusAdventure]

Nice one Glenn. Gas bottles do make good fire pits. So do old steel car wheels. Thanks for watching the vid. 🍻

[@glenndavis479]

@@AusAdventure ha my home fire pit that I picked up from our bush tip is a rim , it's 3' x 2 1/2' , I have no idea what it's from though. I liked ya vid mate because it shows the reality of fishing in general and ya didn't sugar coat it with BS. Cheers.

[@aussieguy3689]

Totally agree mate we don't need to be millionaires with a 300k setup to enjoy the outdoors and have fun , Great little getaway simple camp well done 👍✌️ Have you ever been to Port Stephens NSW ?

[@AusAdventure]

Cheers mate. No never been to port stevens. Is it a good tinny camping area?

[@aussieguy3689]

@@AusAdventure Yeah mate there are a few coves and islands you can stay on i do overnighters there quite often and the fishing is fantastic , 4 days ago i went out and caught 5 big bream in the late arvo the biggest was 48 cm and weighed 2 kg then that night caught a 102 cm Jewfish . 👍✌️

[@bricemorgan7164]

Great vid mate. Enjoying your channel. Maybe a stupid question but do u ever get worried someone is gonna steal the boat when your sleeping?

[@AusAdventure]

Thanks Brice and yes I am always worried about the boat getting pinched especially if I’m in a busy area. If I’m really paranoid I will just sleep in the boat. Otherwise I taken as much out of it as I can.

[@realbudgiesmugglertwohatsb2611]

Your posts are hilarious a lesson on how not to do things 😜

[@AusAdventure]

Yeah if you want to know how to snap your rod this is the channel.

[@Party-Marty]

Shit hot video as usual 🤘. Shame about the rod. Looks like a nice spot. Fish just don’t want to play sometimes hey. Cheers 🍻

[@AusAdventure]

I’ll get the rod fixed and it will be all good. Cheers Marty 🍺

[@johnkieboom878]

I see you run a Honda outboard, a question, how do you flush your motor after Saltwater use. Just curious.

[@AusAdventure]

I use the flushing ears and the garden hose. You can see it at the end of my outboard motor serving video if you like. 👍

[@icstars8762]

Gday legend, Im moving round the tweed area soon. Can I ask what’s the go with camping on tweed river did you have to pay camping fee or anything or did you Just go far down river, I’m keen as to do what your doing but I don’t wanna rock up to a spot and water rats tell me to knick off. Ps keep the content coming 🙌

[@AusAdventure]

Cheers mate. I actually saw the tweed water police while I was there and they had no problem with me camping where I did. The council may be a different story though. You might want to do some research online to find out more. Thanks for watching the vid.

[@lachlanharrison2691]

Do you know how much you anchor weighs I’m looking to get the same one but not sure what size to get

[@AusAdventure]

Ill have to have a look and get back to you on that one mate.

[@AusAdventure]

Ok so it doesn’t have a weight stamped on it. But the shank is 48cm long and it’s 36 cm wide down the bottom at it’s widest point. I’m sure the sales person at your local chandlery would be able to recommend one for your boat. 👍

No worries mate. It seems like a few people on here are claiming that title. 🍻

[@desgamble7643]

Hahaha. You had the same shit weekend that i had last week around peel island. Got bitten off about ten times, no fish all day then lost the bloody anchor overboard. Bolt came out of the shackle that was attached to the rope. So you are not the shitiest fisho on the Goldie. I am in the club too mate.

[@AusAdventure]

Ha yeah sometimes things don’t go exact to plan. We will do better next time Des.

[@offthemeynroad4054]

Looks like the Worst fire pit ever haha

It definitely still needs some development.
