Camping on a boat - Abrolhos Islands Part 2/2 Fishing Camping Diving Crayfish 4x4

[@donfinch862]

Good one Pete. I remember going to West Wallaby Island when I was 10ish. (1970 fer fux sake) One of dads mates was a crayfisherman there with a hut/house on the beach they stayed in during the season. Beautiful place. Just don't sprain yer ankle in a mutton bird hole. Wish I was older to appreciate the experience better. Had crays galore. A great trip for you tho. That would be a trip you'd remember for a long time.

[@WACampingAdventures]

The 70’S would have been awesome over there don! Teeming with fish i reckon!

[@JTProductionsOffical]

Cheers for the vid, In NZ we use a massive rope attached to the trailer with the jockey wheel and pull at a 45 so that one side pops out of the sand then the other works well for us and it saves dipping the ass end of your cars in the water Cheers Tho

[@WACampingAdventures]

Smart way to go james. I am also very paranoid about salt water mate. Thanks for watching legend

[@Oregun]

I can’t believe I missed this series! It was awesome and that beach boat recovery was off the hook! 👍

[@WACampingAdventures]

Was so nerve racking but damn fun!

[@janalexander7467]

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, this guy needs a TV show. The presenting is so natural and hilarious… Discovery Channel, get off your arse and give him a prime time slot!

[@WACampingAdventures]

Your too bloody kind jan! Laughed my head off at your comment. You made my day thanks!

[@hardliquor4x493]

What an adventure something you wont forget in awhile. The idea of having an inflatable is such a great idea. Hope you found the smelly bait

[@WACampingAdventures]

Hard Liquor 4x4 hahaha sure did find the bait, not without throwing up though! Thanks so much! Loving your videos where to next?

[@hardliquor4x493]

Not sure yet mate i have some new diff ratios getting done atm so im not sure whether to wait and put them in or just get out there and hit them bog holes .I love camping this time of year bit quieter round the camp grounds and love a good ol camp fire so mite be an overniter .Was it the smell of the bait? hangover? or both that made you throw up haha.BTW congrats on the 1100 subs you guys deserve it bloody legends

[@mrssprinkles8546]

Absolutely loved watching part 2 and cant wait for the next trip Vid! Those 2 cruisers pulling out the boat at the end was awesome! Thats how its done!

[@WACampingAdventures]

Thank you sweetheart!

[@dad4x4adventures8]

Looked like a ripper trip mate, great to see you guys pulling up some good fish!!Remember me for next year!!!!

[@WACampingAdventures]

Hahaha brad yeh you mean FINALLY pulling up some fish haha. Thanks mate and sounds bloody good to have ya along!

[@dad4x4adventures8]

Mind you there is a big difference from fishing along the shore to deep sea fishing in the Abrolhos!!!

[@WACampingAdventures]

Hahaha not for us! We are still shit haha

[@simonsaunders12]

Another great video guys, well done.

[@ryanphotostudio]

V16 beach recovery! Love it!!

[@WACampingAdventures]

Had to make sure justin😂😂😂

[@TropicalZooms]

Great videos guys. Just subscribed.

[@WACampingAdventures]

Thanks so much and likewise i subbed! Look forward to watching!

[@TropicalZooms]

@@WACampingAdventures Thanks mate. Slowly getting my channel up and running.

[@WACampingAdventures]

Man its the hardest part hey haha great fun though brother

[@sindrome303]

Thats Amazing. But how come the beach recovery. Don't they have a decent boat ramp. I am thinking of getting a 260 Sea ray Sundancer For fishing expeditions to the Abrolhos. how much fuel did you guys use in the boat.

[@WACampingAdventures]

Gday mate and thanks for commenting and the kind words! Funnily enough there is not a boat ramp at port gregory so if your going to launch a boat it has to be from the shore so we just wanted to be positive that we could get it out. Great choice with the sundancer that will be perfect! Geez hard to remember with the fuel i think around maybe 250-300 litres from memory but dont call me on that figure hahahaha

[@sindrome303]

Cheers for the reply. I cant wait to get out there and feast on big fat Crayfish. You did a fantastic job putting it all together. Except you forgot to show the sleeping arrangements. I think its going to take me a while to find my boat, as I would like one with a diesel engine, for better range. Im also going to add an auto pilot, a fresh water maker, and a 60ltr freezer, to keep all those fresh cryovaced fish fillets. Cant wait till you guys do it again.

[@WACampingAdventures]

Thank you for that mate! You totally right i completely forgot to show the sleeping arrangements lol. With the setup you have planned you seem like your going to be perfectly setup. Well thought out. I might pay for a ticket on your boat as a guest hahahaha

[@chrisfitzsimons7414]

Beach recovery was awesome mate. Cruisers sounded great.

[@WACampingAdventures]

Thanks so much chris! I wished i got some better footage mate but was a bit nervous haha. Did not want to end up on the wall of shame😂😂thanks for watching and taking the time to comment mate

[@noobsoff-road]

Another great video Pete and a great ending to your Abrolhos Islands adventure. You made that that tandem pull at the end look easy and I bet those V8's sounded epic pulling that boat along the beach. Great work.

[@WACampingAdventures]

Thanks so much steve hope you have been well mate! Geez mate they were revving their guts out lol. Luckily we just got it out haha. Thanks as always for the support mate and looking forward to your next vids!

[@lachlanoneil8938]

Just realised I can actually get there in my 4.5 Ali, been doing trips that far in Mandurah anyway lol, only around 55l there and back in 20 kmh winds

[@neshculi]

Nice one mate. Great sunday morning vid. Keep them coming

[@WACampingAdventures]

Thanks nebojsa! Appreciate the kind words mate!

[@roystad8916]

That area looked awesome , great fishing and that beach exit with two V8s roaring off across the sand sounded unreal and looked pretty cool too, another great vid boys ,looking forward to your next adventure ,safe travels.

[@WACampingAdventures]

Shit roysta thanks so much for your ongoing support mate! Was a tense moment on the beach but a hell of an adrenaline rush! Thanks mate safe travels to you too!

[@lyndonruis7868]

Geez those white shirts are never going to be the the same again are they !🤔😆 Great trip lads .

[@WACampingAdventures]

Lol not wrong lyndon! Comfortable shirts but are a rag in my shed now haha thanks for your kind words mate great to have you on board!

[@russellgaskin7995]

Looks like you had some great weather over there. Sometimes it will blow it's arse off for days on end and get really rough. Take a can opener next time eh hehehe? Great video. Well done

[@WACampingAdventures]

Got a good belly laugh with the can opener comment russell! Your not wrong mate we had to make the decision and come back a day early as the wind was going to pick up like you mentioned but bloody hell it was a hell of a ride back! Hahaha

[@russellgaskin7995]

Yeah the wind is 1 thing but when the swell gets up and it's all white tops even the bigger professional boats don't venture out to come home. Looks like you got home just before it got rough out there. Yes I laughed as soon as I saw what was going on with the 🔪. Did you see any sharks over there? They are normally following the Cray boats and not far away from divers over that way Cheers

[@WACampingAdventures]

Yeh well said russell and yes i think we got out just in time. Geez it can turn quickly its amazing. Luckily we didnt see any sharks but then again we were only diving for a good hour at a time. Just enough ti get a feed.

[@zooltpool8204]

That was bloody good!! Cheers lads cant wait for next one!!

[@HoldFastCC]

I was wondering what trades you boys were in! Are you the brickie Pete?

[@WACampingAdventures]

Yes graeme im the brickie aswell as craig the bearded fella. We have both had half our brains removed hahaha!

[@HoldFastCC]

ahaha! half a brain more than myself! I'm one of those scummie bastards myself, so its good to see that there are still some decent ones in Perth. Spent all arvo watching your videos. They're genuine, pure, and raw! Which makes them a more enjoyable watch than some of the other mainstream videos up on here. I've just uploaded a short edit from my trip up to onslow over the new year, let me know what you think!? Cheers boys!

[@WACampingAdventures]

Hahahaha graeme bloody mint that your a brickie also. I can see your brickwork is untouchable mate and also your choice in truck!!! Thanks for the kind words mate and am heading to check your video right now! It means alot to have top blokes like you on board mate! Line up get em in!!! Hahaha thanks graeme!

[@paulmacarthur8746]

Geeeze pete what a job on the footage !! Captured what we were seeing perfectly mate its actually made me want to go hook the boat on and head back too can't wait for the next fishing adventure

[@WACampingAdventures]

Paul Macarthur well skippered mate and an epic trip!

[@backyard4x451]

G'day Pete! Mate I loved episode 1 so much I just had to sit down on the big screen and watch episode 2 on it with the kids......Jesus you boys sure know how to have a good time. ' Bloody milk pond' hahah, love it! Not a huge fan of fishing as you know but Sheesh it made me want to buy a boat and bugger off straight away bro. Look after yourself my friend and se you in the next video. Josh and kids 😎😆😭😭😝😩😨

[@WACampingAdventures]

Geez josh that is so kind of you mate! Hey im not the keenest fisherman but couldnt pass up this opportunity! Thanks so much mate really looking forward to your upcoming videos mate!

[@4xplore64]

Another awesome video Pete, loved that beach recovery at the end, Gold 👍🏽. Tell ya what mate, for $500 a head that was some trip, looks like you boys had a ripper time 👊🏽.

[@WACampingAdventures]

Hey matt! Hope your well mate! Yeh mate it was a ripper trip for bloody 500 bucks. You couldnt pay that to get to abrolhos islands on a charter boat i reckon! Thanks for the kind words matt!

[@matt1834]

Great video guys, first time watching and just sub'd to your channel! I've always wanted to go to the abrolhos so I'm steaming with jealousy haha. Have you guys been to thevenard island? Might have to make that your next trip! Cheers oh ps - that beach retrieval was top notch! Well done!

[@WACampingAdventures]

Geez mate thanks for the kind words and so glad to have you on board mate. No i havent been the thevenard island is that in the same area? Cheers for the wicked idea mate and ps. That beach retrieval was luck, we could of looked like bloody idiots at the same time hahaha thanks again mate!

[@matt1834]

@@WACampingAdventures Thevenard island is off onslow. Not quite as far off the mainland as abrolhos (~12nm) but has excellent fishing and also has accommodation on the island. Love to see a video one day ;)

[@WACampingAdventures]

You are speaking my language matt! Awesome mate i bet its beautiful! Keen mate to add it to the list! Cheers brother!

[@NISMO-OFFROAD]

awesome pete

[@WACampingAdventures]

nismo/OFFROAD thanks nathanuel!!! Legend!

[@ryanphotostudio]

Gotta say as well, really professional presentation and some epic footage. Blooody well done as usual.

[@bobcatman3844]

i’m doing that but can’t you stay on island

[@WACampingAdventures]

Gday mate! Unfortunately no you cant. There is an airstrip and a long drop toilet which was handy as we were moored 50 metres from shore. Cheers

[@merdel9663]

I'm a mad fisherman and keen to do the same trip on my boat. loved both the videos, the content was awesome. What Bay did you guys sleep in? And did you have to go far for the fish?

[@WACampingAdventures]

Merdel gday mate thanks for the kind words! We stayed in the bay at walabi island and no way did we have to go far for nice fish! You will absolutely love it if your a keen fisho!

[@4x4CampingandAdventures]
