Hunting MONSTER CRAYFISH with aboriginal men at tip of Australia

[@rayhunapo9154]

I’m a Māori from New Zealand the aboriginals way of life and our way of life back home are almost the same we hunt and gather to provide and we pass it on we respect everything just like them I just moved to Sydney can’t wait to make some aboriginal brothers and sisters

[@cameronross1691]

Your work is so deadly brother. I'm a olkolo kalkadoon man and i love how you continue to showcase and learn our culture while also providing education not only to our fellow Aussies but all around the world. Keep up the good stuff brus 🤙🏽

[@roypowell3450]

Wow those crayfish looked yummy what a great selection of seafood. Your lucky wife (hello Mel) and kids...all cooked in Nath's pop up bistro with a view. 😜. Still pretty quiet here just coming out of hibernation but been busy making new equipment. Cheryl is currently whittling away at a stick making a crayfish spear and as taped a Laser pen to it for accuracy 😲. I think we will bring it back to Oz with us....Any of her go to invention please don't hesitate to ask....They are life changing!! Take care up there. The Wild Screechers. 👍👍

[@WildReaches]

Any crayfish next door? Love the laser light idea! Good one Cheryl

Your Content just gets better and better! I wish i was back up in the cape, another crackin episode

[@theoneandonlyowl3764]

I still love FNQ. I wanted to drive to Bamaga on one of my holidays when a girl of similar age declared she wanted to go with me. Worst decision ever. Ruined my trip and left to head home after Cohen. The boys up there are great. I spent a few years getting to know them, and the girls. Some of the sea-foods that only they could harvest, like dugong and green turtles, were wonderful to taste. I'll never forget my few years up there, but they were the best.

[@rodashford1151]

Can't beat a day out with the ts boys hunting crays, next time try doing some popcorn crayfish, you will love it

[@nevanalthaus2387]

[@whiteunicornDR659]

Another great vid but I hope you have a Garmin inReach mini as backup, Zoleo not as reliable I’ve found

[@WildReaches]

I dont, just the Zoleo. Iv been very impressed with it. How has yours been unreliable?

[@whiteunicornDR659]

Seems to be slower in sending messages and not reliable when walking remotely in the desert anyway

[@jnitazrntaj]

Hey Nath, when is your next trip heading up to the NPA again??

[@joshuamak9930]

Turtles are beautiful animals but I'd sure love to know how they taste hahaha

[@superfluityme]

The knife needs a thick heal or have the addition of a guard. Either built into the mould of the handle or a separate metal piece. So, when the handle is slippery, or you need to push through something hard it stops your hand slipping over the sharp heal of the blade. As an example, look up Mundial chefs knifes with the plastic mould handle. Or if you want to keep the design as close to what it is now the curve at the bottom might look nice, but the curve will slide your hand right to the sharp heal. I would suggest taking the curve out and have a straight edge. Then your hand will run into that edge; it still hurts though. Seeing as it is a working knife I would make the handle thicker if you want to feel the difference wrap tape around it until its most comfortable in use then make the handle to that size.

[@WildReaches]

Awesome feedback mate, Thankyou 🙏🏼

That’s part of what I love is travelling around and seeing the different ways people are hunting different critters. 👌🏼

[@DavidBulsey]

who cares this not New Zealand. this Australia us indigenous mob can take what we want off the land or sea.. catch our food anyway we want

[@DM1977_]

Bro you should realise those blokes are indigenous but there not aboriginal men there from Torres Strait they TI .. no disrespect to them or you. I think they would want you to know that to

hey mate. Yes thank you. i know the connection these men and the boys have to TI and the Aboriginal tribes of the mainland.

[@art-is-lazy4509]

God dam those painted crayfish sure are purdy y'all. Google them up and there are strick size and boat limits applied to them by your Queensland government. Must be special aboriginal exceptions for them to take soo many and small ones?

[@metheuselah01]

Love the vids but I think spearing a crayfish should be illegal

Brodie Moss never acknowledging country? He fishes and a catcher? Loves the wild life But.. where ! Does he do this where? On fricken country? Sorry Nathan , I am calling you bloke

[@DavidBulsey]

that's why I won't subscribe to YBS nothing about indigenous people on his channel idk why some mob go all out for him 👍

[@DavidBulsey]

Yeah true same for me I don't like him he don't acknowledge any of our people he rather go show them other country. them mob home here on palm who follow him make ya slack looking up to him.. at least I learnt from my father idk bout them other mob

[@nzmarkb8713]

Spearing crays, there’s not much sport in that And what if it’s in berry or soft? You go to jail for doing that over here. By hand, pots or noose only

[@DavidBulsey]

this Australia who cares what happens over there that's your laws

[@Tom-m8r1d]

The Esky shot is why we have size and bag limits oh but wait it's ok for them to over fish as 100% showen in this picture yet if a white fella did it we would go to the can where's the equal protection and rights have a think about it it's an extremely disappointed video you boasted and posted about Nath think about it rather sad on every level

[@WildReaches]

Yeah those bloody "black fellas" hey, coming into our country and taking all our crayfish, fish, turtle and dugong, breaking our lore, I mean laws, fishing unsustainably with no foresight of our future generations... My son is 9 years old and one of the main lessons Im trying to teach him right now is not to worry about how many marshmallows his little sister might get and just concentrate on himself and what he needs to bring him happiness or fill his belly. He's 9 so I understand why its taking a while to sink in. I have thought about it.

[@anthonymara7252]

At least we don’t destroy and kill everything like I mean unnecessary death like trawlers. Least we eat everything we catch and share our catch probably something you might learn if you watch it properly instead of concentrating on negative things . Every where’s different mate .

This isn't traditional hunting, it is pillaging the ocean. Motorised boat with GPS to cover huge ground, polarised sunglasses, swim mask, steel spear with rubber sling, wet suits, gloves, fins. You can't expect to claim all the advantages of modern technology, but also claim you should be able to just take what ever you want, like you could when you had all the challenges of traditional hunting.
