Hey everyone, YES, I am very aware that trout were introduce in the mid 1800’s. I wasn’t suggesting indigenous people were thriving off the trout😂. The river is crystal clear and clean, so there is an abundance of wildlife there and the soil is obviously quite rich with nutrients as the flora super green and thriving. Thanks for watching!

[@ScottysGoneWalkabout]

I can't wait to see you try and strap that ice maker to your packraft, because I expect you to bring it on every trip of ours from here on out.

[@TheSillySwagman]

Hahaha how have I just seen this 😂😂 Imagine if I lost that…

[@nzbakerman]

I would pay to see that 😂

[@RinnieCroft]

You are both a great combo together!

[@BlackshacksBushcraft]

I don't know Scotty. He lost a GoPro on a pack rafting trip with you didn't he? He'd probably lose the fridge as well. 😂🤣

[@AustralianSpace]

Mate, congratulations, and good luck for the future. I’ve enjoyed your videos for ages - the mix of adventure, your appreciation of country, your dry humour and humility all make you a joy to follow.

[@TheSillySwagman]

Thanks a lot mate! I really, really appreciate it 🙏🙏 It was always a gamble when I started, not knowing how I’d sound or be perceived on camera, I’m glad for the most part it seems to be positive feedback 😅 Thanks for your support, always 🤙

[@Russell-Aus]

You are definitely living my dreams if not everyone's. I love your KZbin contents no doubt.

[@duffynorris-bailey854]

Boys and girls he’s done it again and congratulations on the first since going full time. Beautiful setting,little bit of bush craft mixed with new tech and a few laughs. What’s not to like. Let the good times roll.

[@TheSillySwagman]

Thanks a lot mate! I’m glad you enjoyed the vid 😄 It’s funny how an idea for a vid can seem so simple but once I start editing I see how all the little things come together to make it a bit of fun 😄

[@Benjabogo]

We are here for you man. Congrats. Keep em coming. Love ya.

[@TheSillySwagman]

Thanks a lot man! I appreciate it! 🙌

[@AussieBushLawyer]

Congrats Mattsy, definitely a huge milestone hope it works out!

[@TheSillySwagman]

Thanks a lot mate! Haha I hope so! Let’s see!

[@Blashswanski]

Watching you learn to cook has been an absolute joy, Mattsy. One day i hope to see a cooking supercut: all your iconic recipes in the one video.

[@TheSillySwagman]

Hahaha leaps and bounds hey 😂😂

[@Mark-f7o]

Its just fantastic to see fellow Aussies out in nature..iove the bush and any type of local video s like this get me right in. You have another subscriber. Take good care mate and stay safe.🤟

[@TheSillySwagman]

Thanks a lot Mark! I agree mate. Can’t go wrong. I shall do, take care mate!

[@mitchhall3732]

Goodluck for the future Matt 🎉 was one of the easiest 25 minutes to sit through. You're a natural 👍

[@JohnKovicz-wl4pu]

Congratulations! you are pursuing what you are very passionate about, the love of the outdoors.

[@user-ArtsyVW]

Might have watched this 2-3 times now.. just so peaceful and calming to watch, entertaining.. I got just as excited when you catch fish and cook it up right there, then, you go and make a cocktail with your outdoorsy- portable 'dual fridge ice maker' thingy majig... Lol haha 🙂

[@orac2901]

Great video and congratulations on leaving your job and going full-time with you tube. I love how simple you make it, except for the fridge 😄 and down to earth you are! I hope the channel goes from strength to strength.🎉

[@youmeandtheGSDs]

Congratulations Mattsy. What a great achievement. We’ve been following since the beginning and couldn’t be happier for you!

[@TheSillySwagman]

Thank you legends! 🙏🙏 Pretty excited for the future and the places I’ll explore 😄

[@firetofork]

You're a man after my own heart: fire cooking, cocktails and quitting your job. My man

[@stephenbursill9304]

Mate. You're not crazy. You are living and loving life.

[@TheSillySwagman]

Ain’t that the damn truth. Thanks a lot 🙏🙏

[@abelstewart2616]

Hey Mattsy, I've been following you for years, first time commenting.... Congratulations on your big step forward, well done!! Absolutely love your channel. Looking forward to more quality content. Thank you.

[@TheSillySwagman]

Hey mate! Thank you for commenting to wish me good luck with the channel, I’m glad you did, it all helps. 🙏 I’m glad you’re enjoying the content. Onwards and upwards!

[@_Sil_]

Mattsy, you amazing fellow. Congratulations on making the leap. Your bravery in this has inspired me to grab a YT membership in support of what you do. Your words always resonate so deeply or split a grin across my face from ear to ear, and sometimes both. Good luck on your scariest and hopefully most rewarding adventure yet.

[@TheSillySwagman]

Thank you so damn much, Sil! I really do appreciate that very much 🙏 I’d say it’s by far the most daring but at the same time the most freeing decision I’ve made 😄 It’s worth the shot I say. I’ve got the rest of my life to make it up if it doesn’t work out. But it will! 😄🙌

[@ADaytoAdventure]

That dance is a forever mood! How good! Goodluck on the new venture, keen for the next install of the Silly Swag Man!

[@TheSillySwagman]

Hahaha it is hey 😂😂 Thanks a lot! I’m ready 🙌

[@iankerrphotographs]

Fantastic video that really hits the feels. Laughs aplenty from the moment we see you all kitted out in a very serious looking pack......then dragging a bloody fridge 😆 Mind you that's one amazing fridge! Congratulations on going full time with the channel - may this be the start of something wonderful. You've got my full support mate.

[@TheSillySwagman]

Mate, I really really appreciate that encouragement. Thank you 🙏 And yeah, I thought the grand entrance dragging that thing over the rocks would be a fun start 🤣😂😂

[@bibekdanuwar2976]

That's a big step mate. Hope everything will be great for you

[@TheSillySwagman]

Thanks a lot mate!

[@davelynoutdoors4277]

You certainly have an awesome environment to start your new job in! Thanks for the video, good luck with the channel mate. 👍

[@Jimmcgregorphotography]

Dear Mr S. Swagman. Great to hear you’ve taken the plunge and decided to quit you’re job. This is very exciting news. I want to wish you the very best on you’re new journey. It is my dream to do something for myself also. I absolutely love you’re content and I’ll be here waiting to watch each and every video. Good luck and keep going no matter what the haters say.

[@cookscatapults]

Super Awesomenesssss....When I was 13, my folks took us kids camping...In the North Georgia Mountains by a river...It was a cool misty day and I caught a nice rainbow trout hahaha.....My Dad set up the coleman stove and helped me cook the trout on the truck tailgate....That's been one of those memories that sticks with ya....Thanks

[@MrDiceman1967]

Well done boss... And yeah your doing a great job.. haven't seen too many people prep a fish. My father taught me at a young age.. Im guessing censorship may have impacted that/vegans. Anyhow, sick shelter setup .. it's hot in the tropics, I think this would work 👍 Thanks!

[@TheSillySwagman]

Thanks a lot, Pete. Yeah I think you might be right about that. Which is crazy given how normal it is. I guess I’ll find out the hard way 😂 What a world hey. Yeah that bugnet is a good option. Still nice and open and doesn’t take much setting up. Thanks for watching mate 🙌

That is a great video -- and congratulations on your big move. I'm sure you'll make a success of it. You are not such a silly swagman after all! Good fishing as well and some pretty flash camera work with the trout in the water. I'm sure Scotty is green with envy. Well done all round and I look forward to further adventures.
