maybe it's just me, but i'm under the impression the overall quality of the videos, editing etc has improved a lot. I love the drone shots, would like to go on a boat trip there one day...

Thanks mate

I'd say if you fried the onion and scorpion fish in a bit of butter before adding it to the mac n cheese, you'd be on to a winner. Maybe some bacon cubes too! Yum!

[@martingoodef811]

Not always about getting big fish, it’s more about the environment, the solitude and exploring an alien world. Anyone that has never dived will never understand this. Thank you Ollie, nice being on your journey. ❤️

[@olliecraig-primalpursuit]

Well said!

[@nicotradisangiacomoclaudio5513]

Ciao from Italy ! First of all I want thank you for all yours videos. they are amazing and let us dream about fishing holidays in your country. Looks like paradise....wilderness and no one around you ...only fishes !!!! Only one think about the recepit with this fantastic scorpion fish......PLEASE don't use this "maccheroni cheese pasta" sinthetyc🤭😃 Use real spaghetti or linguine !! seasoning for the pasta : olive oil (not butter), scorpion fish, chilli pepper , parsley, salt and let it fade with half a glass of white wine. Enjoy your dinner in front of a sunset with a cold white wine .....Buon appetito !! 😎🤙

[@olliecraig-primalpursuit]

Thank you I will prepare better next time! 😂

[@adammiller9182]

“That lemon juice really bought it together” 😂😂😂 I was thinking it looked like a stoner meal just before you said it!! That’s one of the best catch and cooks I have seen, you applying for MasterChef 🤙🤙🤙

[@olliecraig-primalpursuit]

Hahaha

Inspired to get me some beginner spearfishing gear and give it a go.

You should seriously be funded by the NZ government for the service you are providing them.

[@stuckinperth]

If NZ government had its way they would make fishing illegal

[@olliecraig-primalpursuit]

Haha very true. I don’t want any funding or help by the Nz government. They can keep their distance from me

Hello Craig we are blessed to watch your Videos keep us busy with your entertainment.

I really enjoy your videos also bc they are a pretty long format! Makes it really immersive. I can put my feet up, relax and enjoy your adventure. Thank you!

[@olliecraig-primalpursuit]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@johninnz]

I'd agree with that, ten times better than the crap on TV that's for sure. Been blowing its arse off in Pukekohe for what seems like 6 months. Hard to get out for a mish so these videos definately help pass the days between.

[@AK-qu6rw]

Agreed

I went to Scots College in Wellington 37 years ago and now I live in Virginia USA. NZ is an outdoor paradise, I had some great fun night fishing Eels then smoking them.

[@olliecraig-primalpursuit]

Smoked eel is awesome!

[@Dr.G9]

Beautiful video as always, no matter the size of the fish you catch, it is always a pleasure to watch a good quality video like that.

Epic vid bro! You are inspiring me to get my gun out this winter 😊

Maybe next time!

[@cliveedharris1353]

Hello Phil keep the diving going the deepest you go there are a lot of crabs under the rocks 👍

[@snoop2477]

The steep drop offs are perfect for snapper, access to deeper water. Try ghosting down one and sitting against the wall. You'll be surprised. The sunny section of coast opposite where you dived might have been a better spot to find snapper sunning themselves. We used to get a lot of snapper at first light, then we got them later in the day. The reason, we were far more relaxed and diving later in the day! They are where they are. That being said, early morning, last light and the further north you travel, the better. Good to see you had access to warm food and drinks. Those winter dive days are tough, much shorter duration dives the better. By day 3 you'll be chilling down much quicker!

[@olliecraig-primalpursuit]

Cool I’ll keep at the walls, just never had much luck myself but probably just unlucky/not stealth enough

[@natethen2595]

Once again, quality entertainment! Cant wait to see what the future has planned for ollie craig. Just imagine.

[@melodyshortmusic]

Wow big fish

[@dathird3104]

With no dairy or bakery around in the middle of nowhere, and for you to come up with a dish like the macaroni and cheese with fresh scorpion fish on the water is MEAN AZ! bro. I enjoy your journey’s around Aotearoa, I can’t do it at the moment but I’m glad you give us this chance to see what is out there.🤙🏽

[@crustybear]

dude those venison saucies look amazing... drooling right now

[@bertand2287]

Mate, get yourself a cover for that sounder.. Think they're called rusler, custom made canvas cover, made in NZ. Saves green death in your cables later in life. Another hot tip, wipe some electrical grease over the rubber where the map card goes. Always top viewing mate 🤘

[@olliecraig-primalpursuit]

Cheers for the tips mate 👌

[@JohnCONORt1000]

Thank you for a beautiful wonderful world you have take me too

Crushed cornflaked into crumbs coat fish shallow fry is my personal favourite , or yes totally agree just pan fry salt pepper to taste the fish for what it is . oven baked whole snapper the cheeks oh yer

I sun dried a big scorpion cod head and than clear coated it and it kept its red colour.. awesome trophy in the cabinet with all the jaws and other heads….. I reckon you could catch and jaw a bronzy in one of your vids. depending on NZ laws … or send a salmon back down to those kingies I wanna see how you handle one on a rod hahah

[@marklong930]

Awesome video, Ollie. A good keen man out for 3 days of hunting. Love the longer format too. Not sure if it is the editing, but are you surprised by the lack of larger snapper? That looks like amazing snapper habitat with heaps of kina, decent kelp cover and deep gutters, etc.

[@olliecraig-primalpursuit]

A lot of coast around there. I only scraped the surface, and I didn’t set any big Kina or ground burleys so they were probably there somewhere. Fishing has its days too moon phases etc but I’ve actually heard of a few guys not doing overly well on that area of coast for snapper
