Big Bush Trout Blues & The Big Move - Day 15 & 16 of 30 Day Survival Challenge Canadian Rockies

Greg and Fowler battle nasty weather (rain AND snow). Both men run into trouble fishing at Grizzly Lake, but Greg lands another BIG fish. Zach’s NEW bushcraft net manages to stop another stout trout from getting away. After they catch and cook (and spruce smoke) the fish, they officially move camp into the woods and begin to settle into their final location, building more and more each day, hoping for better weather on the horizon.
There's only one rule for the 30 Day Survival Challenge: If you want to eat, you got to Catch and Cook it.
Greg is a self-taught survivalist from Canal Flats, British Colombia, who, since he was a boy, has read nearly every book on the topic. When he is not out in the wilderness, he is a professional dry-waller. He started his first bow drill fire when he was thirteen and spent the next forty years learning bushcraft and studying plants and edibles. He has even developed some of his own survival techniques and is a skilled hunter with both a bow and a slingshot.

[@lalaalalala]

lol man i could watch this dude all day. i love zachs too, but greg’s are the ones i’m always looking forward to watching the most

[@robertorozco3221]

Haha yeah! Greg’s the big homie!

[@khantilmakhat9974]

Me too

[@Joeboken]

I think they're both worth watching for their own styles, I could learn from both of them.

[@jessicacowap2325]

This guy is just nothing but good vibes. How he remains so positive all the time is beyond me 🤔

[@DatsWhatHeSaid]

?? Did you watch the last 2 episodes? Permanent whining about mosquitos 2 episodes ago, whining about the weather last episode.. I was pretty taken aback, coming from a survivalist..

[@whiskeyTX]

You’d be complaining too. Mosquitoes are the most annoying thing ever

[@TheGeekyChef1190]

If anyone is allowed to complain, its these guys. They love what they do, doesnt mean they have to love every aspect.

[@TheHibbitydibbity]

@@DatsWhatHeSaid Did *_YOU_* watch the last two episodes? He was dealing with hunger and not catching enough fish. The mosquitoes were just adding insult to injury.

[@DatsWhatHeSaid]

@@TheHibbitydibbity Nah, I think the problem was, that he had not yet ascended into the hyper-sellout-perma-positive-vibe-content-creation mode that Zach found out to be his perfect equilibrium. The shining light from the bright green dollar signs behind his eyes did not purge the darkness before him, yet. :')

[@TerrenceCallahan]

I love the way Greg says film!! "Filim" makes me grin every time, this man radiates positivity Never quit being you!!!

[@OvensRockyMountainBushcraft]

Thanks Dude

[@malik2433]

Thats, how the Irish say it haha. Do you have any Irish in you Greg?

[@Assdafflabaff]

@@malik2433 I think like 30% of Americans/Canadians have some Irish in them rofl.

[@evengineering7136]

Yeah I like Greg a lot. He is very real. Very much a mountain survival man. I appreciate how much Zack did and still does to help Greg with his video editing. Big kudoes Zachary!!

[@ajmiller7317]

I watched Zac's take of almost the entire 30 days, and I have to say that even that I know whats going to happen Gregs videos are just awesome. Thank you both from the bottom of my heart, it's been very inspirational for me.

[@jeanninerichardson4271]

This is not my normal genre, but I am hooked and binge watching

[@jameswatts6523]

This dude was my favorite guy from all of the seasons of alone..been watching his stuff since I found out he has a channel..I wish he would do a live Q and A

[@stephenrines1509]

Totally love Greg ovens. He's such a good inspiration for me.

[@akosibajong8640]

I love the rawness of the video, I can tell that Greg's have a lot of knowledge and experience. It will be a hit. More subs. Road to 1M subs. You deserve it..

[@intelligentfool09]

Facts.

[@karennewbury6430]

Thank you again Greg and Zach. Half way through ... Love your honesty and calm demeanor ... Beautiful scenery.

[@himekokatagiri949]

I love how Greg just casually points out the smokers on fire 14:40

[@codyoconnor3476]

''Im watching every episode'' not only do I love your videos I love that you are such an inspiration to so many people and it has been my dream to do exactly what your doing

[@FilmanSantiago]

"the worm from yesterday is still alive, that's weird' lol. I thank youtube for showing this in my suggested channels.

[@michaelnash2634]

I am watching every episode

[@zzzz2574]

Greg is a seasoned veteran. I can't stop watching this episode. 😂😂😂😂

[@MJ-mw6vj]

Hey Greg. Shame the weather has been so bad but the scenery is just so beautiful to say the least. Though it seems the fish gods are shining down for you.

[@Post-Alone]

Man Id love to go camping with you guys for like 1 week! Could learn a whole lot! Especially about plant edibles.. i think its super important to know about that

[@OvensRockyMountainBushcraft]

Yes plant knowledge is a very important part of outdoor survival

[@fishingtime530]

I've gained respect for you two. Those fish guts can caught fish. Eyes are good also.

[@gingerbowman4574]

LMAO.... Drive me insane... just like a nagging wife. Best comment EVER!!! And YES... the scenery and drone footage is AMAZING

[@nikodemzagloba7276]

Thats true.. wife..heheh..good one

[@almightyZAW]

I think it’s funny when guys use the wife jokes. What kind of man marries a woman that annoys him? A stupid one. And I have found 2 of them 😂

[@gscfishingoutdoors]

I laughed out loud at that comment...was that from experience Greg? 😉😉

[@jeffsmith50001]

Yep. Don't have to ask permission to go out fishing. Greg jeans are good. But get some ROHANS. Thank me later.

[@littlebrraatt]

I have been very entertained by this series. Thank you for putting all this effort in so we can watch these. I appreciate it very much.

[@andymichaud3989]

“I’m watching every episode” I have never even caught a 5pound fish ever you losing one just breaks my soul but keep up the good work you too love watching you and Zack almost everyday

[@wise9022]

Greg. Love your videos! You have the most subtle humor. Keep it up.

[@tonysays6387]

I like the background music when trying to catch the fish

[@OtaakBand]

the ominous cello music definitely added to the atmosphere

[@SuperDave-vj9en]

You are so cool and collected...... very even tempered. You are the kind of person I like packing with, rarely mad or pissed off. You are doing a fantastic job, keep it up, brother!

[@Aznrflman]

Watching all the episodes, feeling your frustration of losing a big fish and a loved lure

[@glennchaffin7201]

I’m watching every episode, on each channel, marveling at their determination to overcome adversity; but then, I guess that’s what survival is.

[@robertorozco3221]

“The worm from yesterday is still alive on here... that’s weird” - Greg 3:01

[@lalaalalala]

lol it made me laugh my ass off for some reason

[@niks983]

Legit that stood out to me as well.

[@RB-xc9vh]

Your final words made it clear one more time - messing around in the wilderness is no joke, even when prepared and experienced like you are. Thanks a lot for all the effort and the great videos!

[@RB-xc9vh]

"Im watching every episode" and now I learned that there is a perfect comparison for mosquitos :D Have a great one, guys, and thanks for the awesome work!

[@kennywilliams613]

I'm watching every episode of the 30 day survival challenge and I've just got to say that it's so beautiful there and I'm definitely loving every minute of the challenge Greg I think you were born for the outdoors ✌

[@kevinkitts7200]

Hell yeah I appreciate it like I said one of my favorite channels now just a suggestion but when bait is scarce I wonder if you did catch a fish could you use the guts from it for bait be safe and stay dry

[@OvensRockyMountainBushcraft]

Ya

[@RaneBane]

Eyeballs are bomb bait

[@WeiserAcademy]

What a beautiful view of that lake. Would love to wake up to that view everyday. I'm watching every episode. Thanks for sharing.

[@WristWatcher]

8:18 need more resting shots like this, peaceful, and we can all relate during this covid crisis

[@thatsmydawg]

Skateboarded28 anytime ive been driving threw states woth a buddy i always fall asleep in the pass seat. We call those #sleepies if its during the day

[@jodielynne3687]

I love Greg, hes a great knowledgeable guy watch him all the time

[@silverhexagon8077]

"Want some Woodobo on it?" No hesitation with that nod.

[@beningnz]

Watching from New Zealand 🇳🇿. Appreciate all the effort and hard work just to bring this footage to us viewers. No words for me to describe how awesome is this challenged.

[@surfpapo]

No haters yet , Greg is a cool dude 😎 don’t hate appreciate lol

[@silverhexagon8077]

The only haters I've seen are ones saying they prefer one over the other. And calling them sell outs for having sponsors...silly kids. These awesome adventures cost money and I appreciate both of their styles.

[@XploreAz]

@@silverhexagon8077 that annoys me when people call other people sellouts. I mean do those people work for free?

[@iphgfqweio]

In a real survival situation I would prefer Greg to Zach 80/20 lol

[@iphgfqweio]

But in the Citylife I guess it's 20/80 lol

[@haileyjo6236]

"I'm watching every episode!" Where was Fowler with his net to land that fish??

[@magnumbrahms5339]

Zach was not in the lake at that time. Busy finishing that net.

I think he came just after he lost the big fish

[@MyNicky2012]

Mr. Owens... I watch both you and Zach. You guys are awesome. Keeping it real. Ty

[@joshuastephens301]

You have to show him how to cast that spinning rod/reel.

[@andrewgalloway7344]

yeah .. he's not using the energy stored in the rod at all .... may as well be a broom handle .... also his reel (see below) is shit. I don't rely on fish as a staple diet ... but if i did i would sure as shit be a bit better at it .... jeez .....

[@larryhager7109]

I know drives me crazy watching him cast. He also needs to use swivels in front of them Mepps and learn the polymer knot using that braid might be pulling the knot out.

Looks like he's a wizard casting a spell instead of lure lol

[@TerrenceCallahan]

The man still caught plenty of fish doin his thing with limited materials during that month.... haters gonna hate but his method worked for him better than most peoples methods work for them... to each his own. These replies are more condescending than helpful. This is why this man sticks to livin in the bush and not around all you people.

[@MattCashatt]

13:15 "Hopefully people appreciate it." Yes, yes we do. This has been a GREAT escape to nature during the lockdown. THANK YOU!

[@ElkinsEric]

Watching every episode. I think I prefer Greg’s episodes. Zacks are just too gizmo heavy for me.

Eric Lock did you know that cheese burgers are the best?

[@ElkinsEric]

Yeah. I did know that.

[@Riddlemt]

@@mikeycityify The fact that Zach edits Gregs videos doesnt contradict Eric Locks comment, no idea why you'd even bring that up. That said, can't stand the bibley dear god aspect of Zachs videos, but glad i found Greg via him.
