Exploring The Dead Zone! Completely Burnt Out

@Bradley Taylor yeah, in his way, he has highlighted the tragedy that is unfolding down there. There is an insane amount of work that goes into these 15 minute videos.

You aren't recognisable any more Timmy. This video, compared to your early work, I just don't even have the words. Keep doing what you are doing mate.

[@Impulsebranch84]

Felt like I just watched a movie!!! Best fishing video I have ever seen!! Love your work timmy🤙🏼

[@billthomas2598]

Timmy, this is a next level production. It gave me misty eyes to see so much destruction. Thank you so much for the time effort that has obviously gone into this content. Keep up the amazing vids you provide for us please. Cheers.

[@dylanstewart5317]

Loved the B roll in this made the video much more engaging keep it up

[@RocketsFishingAdventures]

As devastating as these fires have been and continue to be, the Aussie bush will fight back, and so will it's people. I love the ending of the vid that shows the emergence of new life from the ashes. Some great images there Tim. Well done mate.

[@andrewmurden10]

Wouldn't be so sure of that mate, after years baking in the heat with almost no rain the trees were dropping dead from that alone now after being incinerated it might not be able to come back. Not to mention as soon as we get a big pulse of rain lots of those lovely bass and perch will be killed by the amount of ash in the water. Good times

[@patrickrichardson724]

I’d call this cinematography and short films. absolutely brilliant work

[@StEfFyO]

Hey Timmy, your level of cinematography is going through the sky! This is art buddy. We wish u all the best and hopefully this nightmare with this fires is over soon. All the best from Germany. In our thoughts we are with you guys in the other end of the world! Stay safe...

Tim your cinematography and editing is second to none!!!!! another amazing video!!!!!! i could watch these all day mate, amazing stuff.

[@petevann8764]

Brother your cinematography is outstanding , you have a talent for it . There are thousands of people making fishing videos on KZbin but only 1in a thousand are able to invoke a emotion from the viewer without saying a word. Keep up the outstanding work mate

[@bonito.856]

As a fellow Aussie, it's so distressing to see my state burn to this extent. Your cinematography is breathtaking yet eye opening and i'm so worried about the rest of Summer.. we're not even halfway there yet :(

As one of your cuzzies across the ditch, it's so sad to see the devastation from the fires. Seeing the landscape obliterated, the animals maimed & killed, the daily struggle of your fellow countrymen... brings a tear to the eye. Looking at the bush around the river there, the whole ecology must be affected eh? Insects, birds, small to large animals & even the fish life has to be suffering in the food chain. Awesome videography Timmy, love your work. I look forward to the next one... stay safe...

[@carstenbauer1338]

You have actually out done yourself Timmy. I have been subscribed to you since before 500 and this is honestly bot just my favorite video of your, but is my favorite video on KZbin. thank you so much it is amazing to see you grow and evolve like this.

[@jordythebassist]

Mate, I keep coming back to this video. The way you've put this together to show both the devastation, the hope with the regrowth, the overhead drone shots and music - this is just flawless. IMO this is your best video yet and it's not even for the fishing.

[@FishingWithTimmyTurtle]

Thank you very much mate

[@johnryan6356]

Although the quality of video and editing is lightyears ahead of where you were back when you first started on the pipe & ply raft, the enthusiasm and passion hasn't worn away. Awesome to see a fella as passionate about fishing as you.

[@far_canalfishing3579]

Mind blown, my missus walks out when i put fishing on but with that intro and your footage she watched the full movie.. U caught some amazing amd emotionally charged footage that has taken this vid to the next level. Well done mate cheers stay safe

[@badm.d]

You're a legend timmy, as a farmer and a son who was brought up hearing the stories of my fathers farm burning in ash Wednesday that opening scene was so well done i literally feel sick to my stomach.

[@badm.d]

also try 2 split rings on your rear hook

[@2scrub585]

Mate I have been a watcher of your videos for many years now and I must say this is truly amazing you, know how to bring a tear to a true blue Aussie mate great stuff.

[@ScottysGoneWalkabout]

Beautifully shot mate! It's my first time watching one of your vids and very impressed! Well done and subbed.

[@PeeexFishing]

Work of art. Great footage and sound and really drives it home how bad the devastation is.

[@nigelpage256]

My 6 yr old daughter and 8 yr old son love watching your videos with me, So thanks for not swearing in your vids mate👍👌

[@marxfishing]

Amazing how you have gone from filming on your phone, to one of the best videographers and editors in Australia. Seriously impressive.

[@jamesstewart5665]

Should be up for a award for this one mate. Hauntingly beautiful

[@jordythebassist]

First of all, this is not KZbin quality editing. This is movie stuff, like top level movie. Everything is just so perfectly done Timmy, you're a great fisherman but this editing stuff is seriously some next level stuff for anyone on KZbin. Second, I don't know how you can drive through those areas without wanting to cry. I did an emergency supply delivery last weekend and seeing the decimation as I was driving literally brought tears to my eyes. It hurts me so much to see our beautiful country burning like this.

[@richardwalkden6349]

Brilliant cinematography, well done. It’s a country of resilience, survived by people who get on with it no matter what. You epitomise that spirit.

[@secretguyoz2]

Mate seriously this video quality is the best I've seen. You are going places my friend.

[@YEPIMONFISHING]

It's hard enough to film and fish when you have 2 on the boat , but to get that quality and fish and film.. thats just outstanding. Well done mate.

[@mattcollinsoffishal1915]

Lost for words, the devastation goes on for ever! Lets hope it rains properly soon. and oh mate your cinematography is on another level, would not be surprised if we see you with an award or major job offers soon😁🎣🐟👍

[@dintism]

What an epic video! Cant even describe how awesome that footage and editing was. Just a freaking amazing 20 minutes of footage. Your videos inspire me to fish more, not just to catch fish, but to get out and experience the beautiful scenery fishing exposes you too. Love it Timmy!

[@trentmartin4087]

David Attenborough/Paul Worsteling / Mark Berg watch out here comes Timmy Turtle 🐢 Keep up the great work mate. Keep these quality movies coming and you’ll be on the Big screen in no time mate.

[@debbiemyers8589]

Today it’s 9/4/2024 and this video is still my favourite edit. Amazing level here I really thought u were taking off to be a videographer here. Then u disappeared and came back with a big boat. I miss these Timmy turtle posts they were the best. Just a guy loving his fishing and camerawork.

[@1ongava]

Incredible video Timmy, powerful, beautiful, on point. I wish there was a KZbin awards this sort of work could be nominated for. I think we're all hurting seeing this awful fire season here and you capture it very well, and there are green shots of hope, but it will take time and effort to heal these scars.

[@Cookerab]

[@benlyons5884]

Hi TT. Loving the cinematography you've been producing! Keep up the great work. Some of those shots really captures the messed up conditions we're experiencing.

[@steve1105]

such a dramatic piece of work Timmy, seriously..... you have captured the feel of the devastated region in an artful and moving way, especially the drone work. I cant say your hook up rate was as impressive but your honesty here is a nice touch....I look forward with anticipation to your next effort, keep up the great work ( this is the first time I have ever felt the need to comment on any video)

[@petereaton6740]

When you look at the devastation to the forests done by these fires it's somewhat sad, but beautiful in its own way and once the autumn comes these areas recover very well, in times gone by fires used to start by lightning strike and just burn till nature put them out, nowdays we rush in and put them out without giving much thought as to what this does to the environment, did you kniw that a lot of Australian natives actually require a fire for the nut holding the seed to release the seed? While others require fire to crack the shell of the seed so it can germinate, while fire is devastating to humans and the bush it's up to us to be aware of the impact we as people have on the environment not just in how we act but also how we think. The blame game is just a simple way to excuse yourself from the real issues we face when in fact we are all responsible for what has happened and will happen in the future😉 Thanks for the video Timmy👍as others have said your certainly giving us some great quality and enjoyment 😉

[@officialWWM]

Peter Eaton I think pretty much everyone in Australia knows our bush is designed to burn. The problems only happen when people build their houses in the middle of it...

[@barryfrench2534]

Just listen to the background, the Cicadas are out in droves after the fire went through, decent food source for birds and animals whilst the land starts its inevitable recovery and most of that bush is only scorched. After a big fire went through the Kulkyne in the late 70's I found out there was such a thing as the Mallee Pine, later discovered It had not been seen for around 60 years and was thought to be extinct. Be an interesting video in 12 months along this same waterway to show how fast the bush can recover.

[@petereaton6740]

@@barryfrench2534 it won't take 12 months for change, as soon as there is enough moisture the suckers will start to grow out of the tree trunks and ground cover will start to show. It is interesting what comes back after a wildfire and nice to hear a once thought extinct plant has returned👍

[@barryfrench2534]

@@petereaton6740 You are correct regarding the timeframe. I was thinking that in 12 months the height of those new growths would be a nice counterpoint as well showing how many animals\birds will be around.

[@Fake.plastic.guy.]

That kookaburra at the beginning sounds just insane in surround! Everything looks so... crispy. I don't know the fish name, but not the bream or the bass, but the other one. I think those are what you kept losing. Their mouth looks a lot like a crappie, actually the rest of it does too. Anyways, the mouth is sooo soft and delicate, lighter line and a real flexible rod stops hooks from tearing right out. They got lips like wet gas station toilet paper but not as strong. Just awful devastation from the fires, and I'm told the fire season has only just begun. Hopefully you catch a break and get a good rain and there's enough surviving wildlife for populations to recover quickly. Best of luck, and be careful.

[@Mardy72]

Australian bass and estuary perch are basically the same fish mate.....they have the same mouth. The perch has a more dipped forehead and that's about it. They can even interbreed, which has been proven by the CSIRO doing DNA testing.
