Josh James VLOG 278 The Eel and the Shark surfcasting

[@skozlozlaurie712]

Ahhhh the old barefooted wood chopping, a classic Kiwi tradition.

[@blairwalton4456]

Kiwi safety boots man they aren't cheap if you cut them though lol

[@garywheaton-lifewithgaz50]

No chaps, no boots....dude got to remember he's a role model....of sorts.

[@joshjameskiwibushman]

@@garywheaton-lifewithgaz50 yep, role modelling good skills and technique. No use having boots if your gonna hit them with a splitting axe. They won't do diddly squat to protect your foot. Chainsaw technique and how you hold it and where your standing is also more important than wearing chaps and just hacking Into it....

[@bullkelpbarney8144]

Love the safety jandals. 😂😂😂

[@zachdunn6550]

Josh, mate friend or brother, thankyou! A 20 second hug can change alot!

[@RiverbendlongbowsOutdoors]

Whole lot of memories made that day 👍 That was Rich

[@ArnovanWyk-q2j]

Man, Ive been watching your videos since early days and to this day Im astounded at the rope work, bush mechanic fixes and now sledge hammer wood chopping. . . . how are you not a commercial diver, you`d be a star.

[@shaynegriffin684]

Awesome day out on the beautiful West Coast - South Island West Coast has a special place in my heart.

[@saltydolphin6959]

Dam the kids smiles and laughter made me smile ! Reminded me of when I was a kid eeling.... I got the mighty Waikato on my doorstep but it's been pillaged... I'm 32 now but remember as an early teen hanging the eels on the clothesline and boiling water and wiping them off after with newspaper... might have to be the plan this weekend I reckon

[@jeffprenoveau4841]

Good see you and Sunny rocking the dad/son thing. I bet Charlie gave him his first experience driving back in the day. Always good to catch up with you all. Peace from Oregon.

Dog found some kinas

[@nickkinney4942]

Pooha ls that also known as opium lettuce never thought to eat it

[@jonsmith6982]

was that cherry beach or aussie hardwood even ,i get a lot of that myself i love that wood but not really sure what it is ,splits easy & burns great smells funny sort of stinks a bit when it's wet aye ?

[@joshjameskiwibushman]

Possibly broad leaf your referring to, hard as and has a funny smell to it. Also splits real easy

[@shaundcarr836]

Kiwi safety boot, don't pretend there not ligit

[@davidneal6920]

Very cool. Any Chinook Salmon down that way?

[@joshjameskiwibushman]

yeah, slim on the ground though

[@michaelphillips8966]

Um... Just want to say it is not the sheep who are stupid, as I have learnt from experice... And wool is about the best insulation there is, from cold heat and electricity... They will look at a hot tape and go something like... Bah ha ha ha... And they will be gone 🤔 (if they are stripping the trees of bark they need some extra nutrients, a bag of sheep pellets from the local farm store for $20 will do, a handful a day each 👍)

[@calebswanepoel8230]

What are the green leafs 🍃 in the eel brine mate

[@joshjameskiwibushman]

bayleaves

[@calebswanepoel8230]

I am in no way assuming anything but I am however somewhat confused as to who on earth the German lady was because it most certainly was not Josh's partner, so to me she was a complete mystery....help clear it up for me please somebody.
