As a child I fell in love with the platypus n that love has continued all me 60 years. Wonderful. 🇬🇧

[@lightningsfishingadventures]

Itty bitty fishy committee 😂 awesome vid, love the photos and the underwater footage. That platypus was cool! 😁🎣

[@robbiefishing]

haha Thanks mate. I have been catching a few trout and redfin lately but they've all been tiny. LOL

[@lightningsfishingadventures]

@@robbiefishingbummer huh, the fishing has been slow over here

[@glenbaker4024]

Lauretta took some great pictures but getting underwater footage of the platypus was incredible. Cheers

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks Glen. I couldn't believe my eyes when I reviewed that footage. WOW I was so lucky.

[@brentlewis2185]

Awesome Robbie. Platypus footage beats the leaf and stick by miles.

[@SerMidnightTCG]

Thanks so much mate.

[@damianshale4567]

Up there for thinking, down there for dancing, in between, for romancing. Great Video Robbie. Glad to see you making some recovery from your back issues.

[@robbiefishing]

Haha thanks so much mate. 👍👍

[@aaronfowkes2117]

Fantastic video Robbie! The underwater footage of the platypus was amazing. So was Lauretta's photos. Good to see you able to move a bit better. Have a good day mate. Cheers 👍

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks so much mate. I was so stoked to see that platypus. Haha

[@krissteel4074]

Some great platypus footage, they're real little underwater bulldozers just turning the whole place over. And some remarkably tiny redfin! At least the trout turned up to the party

[@michael-fb7ps]

Love the days of just driving around having a look at new spots cheers mate great photos and underwater footage to mate awesome

[@colindyer4810]

Great to see you up and about doing what you love, u can tell you had a great day , cheers from grumpy

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks so much Grumpy. 🙏 We had a wonderful afternoon. We had so much fun that we went back 2 days later to try and replicate it, but this time I took my fly rods. Haha

[@MaxineLasnitzki]

Love Loretta's photos! Would be happy to see more! Thank you.

[@robbiefishing]

Thank you so much for the great feedback Maxine.

[@spella3253]

Great Vid Robbie and great photo's by Lauretta. As soon as I seen the pic of the Whip bird, my mind was instantly sitting on the river bank. One of my absolute favorite bird noises. I just love them!!

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks mate, Lauretta certainly is very talented. I too love the whip birds. They remind me of my trout fishing adventures because I seem to see them more in the hills than anywhere else.

[@spella3253]

@@robbiefishing Absolutely, me too. Reminds me of fishing with my mum and dad on the banks of the Ovens River around the Myrtleford area. I miss those days.

[@BenTaylor-o7h]

the landscape looks so good. love little creek systems like that.

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks mate, so do I. 👍👍

[@DaveM-ez6cy]

Those are ripper photos Lauretta and its good to see you out and about Robbie!

[@peterhipwell4632]

That’s awesome footage of Mr Platypus Redfin that’s something different in size Love Lauretta’s photo’s well done

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks so much Pete. I will pass your kind words onto Lauretta. She's a very talented photographer that's for sure.

[@CamBill]

Awesome trip, pictures and underwater footage👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks so much Cam. :)

[@captainfrank01]

Gee Robbie, most of those redfin were only about the same size as the DP Punchmaster float! Loved the underwater footage and great photos Lauretta!

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks Frank. Haha Those redfin weren't likely to pull the float under in a hurry were they. 😂😂😂

[@StanthorpeGarbo]

Great Video Robbie 👍 Lauretta always takes Amazing photos 👏👍

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks buddy, she sure is very talented.

[@jeffwood4620]

Entertaining as usual Mate! Thanks for your efforts. I hope your back is improving. I am considerably older than you, and have had a couple of bouts of Sciatica. It is extremely painful and very debilitating. Fortunately, my issue hasn’t been chronic and has resolved both times, and I now haven’t had it again for many many years. Hopefully your experience will be the same and it won’t repeat.

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks so much Jeff. Since this video was filmed a week ago, I've been trout fishing twice. I fished this stretch again 2 days after I filmed this and was still quite sore. Today I fished a different creek and walked a little bit further. PAIN FREE!! I am so bloody relieved mate. I'm at that point where I could easily undo my recovery so I need to be super cautious. I'm slowly getting there. I'm still a bit limited, but definitely on the mend mate. WOW What a relief.

[@jeffwood4620]

@ yeah! Sciatica is really a painful thing to deal with. My experience was it was really bad at night and hard to sleep with. It affected my right side and leg. Walking was really difficult in the morning but eased up a bit during the day. I did find that when it started to resolve it didn’t regress and continued on until it was gone. Anti inflamitory’s were gold. Looking forward to future videos. 😂😊

[@OVTraveller]

Tempting to call you half ( trying) Robbie, but you are forgiven being semi disabled. Hope the pain stays away for a good long time. Cheers

[@OVTraveller]

Congratulations to both of you of some lovely bird photos and the first shots I have ever seen of a wild platypus feeding. Fabulous stuff!

[@petemcdonald5526]

Great shots Loretta!

[@LangeysFishingAdventures]

And I will find a way to go trout fishing Love it Robbie great video mate

There is a den of fox CUBS around the corner from me atm!

[@robbiefishing]

There's so many around up here. Every time I go driving at night time I see a family of baby foxes.

[@Velvethunter]

​@@robbiefishing Not good. Very bad for the natives...

[@Urbanfisho]

@@Velvethunter NOT at all! Cute, but PESTS!

[@BluddEHell]

Fantastic! I’m taking the GoPro fishing and hopefully I’ll catch more than I usually don’t.

[@robbiefishing]

Haha good luck mate. 👍👍

[@Jo33333]

Is that the fockers home 1min mark ? Water temps & anglers pressure ! Population is higher than ever before and people use the bush as an escape ! Which is great ! those glory days 2-3yrs ago trout fishing are long gone !

[@robbiefishing]

They will be back mate. I think it's more of a seasonal thing than anything else. Yep, that's where the Farkins live. Haha

[@Vincentdonnelly5158]

Great video catch and release 😂😂😂😂 or call it done him. Your wife captured some beautiful photos. Look after yourself, big man.

[@robbiefishing]

Haha thanks so much Vincent. Getting old is painful. LOL 🤣

[@Samsfishing1970]

Hey Robbie, I went fishing in the Murray River today up at howlong and caught a cod on chicken nuggets. It was 57 cm and very fat. Around 5kg

[@robbiefishing]

WOW that's unreal mate, well done.

[@Samsfishing1970]

We also saw a turtle and a platypus

[@deedubya3884]

True fisherman, yep last cast, nah this one, ok one more, righto just another worm, this is definitely the last cast........ Thanks robbie.

[@robbiefishing]

Hahaha thanks mate. 🤣🤣👍

[@codyracer18]

i saw a great spot full of trout at whrouly on the ovens river on whrouly bowmans road

The yellow tailed black cockatoos are in the south of Australia and the red tailed are in the north.

[@jeetts59]

Lover the under water films

[@jimdobies7314]

So happy you are feeling better! Is the first pool where The Farkens live?

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks mate. Haha Yep, it sure is.

[@jeffbaade8480]

Hey Robbie you know how you had the underwater camera down and sometimes it was going from a lighter shade back to a darker shade is that the sun coming out and cloud cover if it is it's interesting because we pick lures to match the water

[@robbiefishing]

G'day Jeff, that's exactly what it was mate. Either the sun going behind the clouds or the trees blowing around blocking the sun. It makes it look really cool doesn't it.

[@jeffbaade8480]

@@robbiefishing sure does and that's why I see you picking a colour to match the the day thanks mate

[@TheBaldingPlebs]

Mrs. Farkin, you home?

Hahaha 🤣🤣 that's funny. Good question. 🤣

[@matthewmcclure5218]

What's you're thoughts on aquaculture using charax destructors.

[@robbiefishing]

Hi mate, I've never even thought about it to be honest. I'm not even sure what that is. LOL I know what Cherax destructors are, but not aquaculture.

[@catherinekamoen6685]

Tell your wife she has a new follower

[@robbiefishing]

Thank you so much Catherine, that is so kind of you. I will tell her for sure.

[@AndrewCastlemaine]

Glad your sciatica in improving. An absolute mongrel of a problem

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks so much mate. You're not wrong. It's bloody terrible.

[@mickwatson2177]

What do platypuses eat mate?

[@robbiefishing]

Hi mate, I believe they eat yabbies, crayfish and small fish.

[@catherinekamoen6685]

Robbie I need lessons from your wife no joke I wish we didn’t move now 😢
