SOLO CAMPING - Mangrove and Beach Fishing For Food - Catch And Cook

[@secretguyoz2]

Don't know if you realise that these videos are the adventures we all crave and you bring them to us consistently.. thankyou 😊

[@jleach4278]

Very well said sir.

[@shawnfarrell9772]

I go out every weekend. All you gotta do is go get it. Adventure is calling. Or sit back and watch others Adventures, I do because it helps me in what I'm doing sometimes. He definitely adds to what I'm going to do sometimes. Better to be well informed then uninformed... To each there own

[@deepg7084]

The word "hoochie" makes me laugh more than it should lol. I've said this before, but as someone who suffers with insomnia, these videos send me into the most peaceful sleep. And I mean that in the most positive way. My mind just drifts away to a better place. No fake shouting for the camera like a lot of creators. No over-the-top dramatic music to create suspense. Just a guy with a kind demeanor, on an island by himself, talking to the camera. I don't even know at what point I fell asleep, but I woke up in the morning with the video completed lol. Don't worry, I always go back and watch them when I'm awake. Thank you from Los Angeles Rod.

[@benjaminbogard4744]

Same here, I can never watch a full video in one go. It usually takes me 2-3 attempts

[@benjaminbogard4744]

I love his intros, straight into the content. No goofy intros of saying “hey guys welcome back to my channel” etc.

[@lashallure4634]

I’m with u😂😂 😂

[@TheSebtrain]

I do exactly the same. The peaceful nature of the vids never fail to send me off. Then finish watching in the morning ❤

The fact that that's your dream boat shows how humble you are. Best adventures, mate!

He’s got it outfitted just as he wanted too. Too often, “my dream is just some silly BS.

[@ginoyim4043]

Hey Rod, I recently quit my corporate job to pursue what I really want to do. Its been hard keeping motivated , but your videos always give me boost! Thanks man, cheers from California.

[@Fluffynator-hm5hq]

I wish you luck!

[@Outcast_Family]

Best of luck to you! I’m in the same boat 😅

[@keeperofthegood]

Metal skewers have a function different than wood ones. Metal conducts heat. You find wood used for soft meats and fruit/veg where internal heat isn't needed and metal for raw red meat cooking. If you use metal with foods that are soft like fish, you may want to adjust your cooking heat/time to account for the heat transmitted internally by the skewer. Yes, soaking wood skewers for a good hour+ helps with the burning, raising them up from the coals and ensuring a no-flame in the coal bed are also key elements. To the rest, well done and thank you for an enjoyable outing adventure :)

[@rokkitkit]

Some good info, will definitely adjust if I get some for sure👍

[@kevinomalley1521]

One of your best cooks for a while. Had to grind hard for it. Didn't seem promising when filleting, but made into a pretty epic, but simple meal. Great stuff.

[@billanderson2217]

Kudos!!! Sitting here drooling over your Flatty Kabobbies💦😜! Superb content, narration and editing. Simply perfection! Kudos!

[@JudeScott007]

Thanks for your kindness for these fish! A small thing that shows a lot about your character!

[@CopelandSSB]

Right when I needed him most, Rodney hits us with an hour. Lets go!

[@anglingnoobau126]

This just makes the weekend much more awesome than it already is! Thanks Rokkit 👏🏼🙏🏼🔥

[@kjewell91]

I love that he’s got the new gear and boat and all. But he’s doing the same ol with the new gear. Footage, I can’t say a single bad thing. Your attention to detail is UNMATCHED. I know you have a family. A lot of us are looking for the survival C,C&C. You’ve got some great gear. Maybe a solo 7 day? I know even that might be a bit much but if planning could take affect and you could give us a great 4-5 part series over a week adventure!, I mean, it’d be wonderful. Anyways, enough of my computer chair editing. I, aside from all of that, still love you, your family and your content dearly. I can’t thank you enough for what you’ve provided thus far, brother! Thank you!!

[@davidgerard761]

I was looking for this video for the longest time. The part at 54 minutes where you talk about humans becoming part of the food chain resonated with me for whatever reason, the lackadaisical regard for just the way it is when doing dangerous things I completely understand. Sometimes ill kayak out miles and stay on an island for a few hours and whatever happens happens, i feel peace and understand im completely in tune with nature and vulnerable. Thanks for the great videos as always

[@pieordi]

Makes my day to see a new camp and cook video out. Thanks for the content brother, awesome vids

[@martinquintana5837]

OMG Rod you'll give Taku a run for his money on this catch and cook video. You certainly made a gourmet dish. Awesome video Rod anyways you stay safe out there and have a blessed day. Aloha from Kansas

[@rokkitkit]

I wish! Taku takes it to a whole new level👌🤤

[@Chrixsify]

Those drone shots are really amazing Rod!

[@drewdorsey3694]

it seems his setup includes a insta360 camera that he attached to a long pole to give the drone look. not sure if thats it, but just what I noticed and it is such a sick shot!

[@petewalton5068]

I live in northern Ontario Canada and it's so nice to learn new things. Thanks for the videos! I really enjoy watching them.

[@Fuhrious]

One of the few hour+ video channels I will watch in its entirety

have a good meal .. at that beautiful beach... sun, calm, peaceful... what a day 🌞🏝️🍢

[@cakesnipher7024]

Impeccable timing as always mate! I am excited to watch this one 🤌

[@opus2006]

Excellent video as ever. And every fisherman knows that "Oh bugger" moment.

[@TheLion377]

Hey Rokkit. Hope you're well. Have really enjoyed the channel for a few years. Just thought I'd pop down in the comments and give you a shout. Credit where it's due. Definitely definitely been a treat to watch you through your journey mate. God bless and be well my friend

[@TheRealGodSpeed]

So nice of you feeding the brims Rod! Much love buddy, love the adventures!

[@rokkitkit]

Those are my pet brims😁

[@andrewgrimsted7947]

flathead fish is one of the best eating fish in the sea very underrated . keep the great shows coming Rokkit .

[@FrankBobongie]

you caught 5 flathead master class Roddy & Brilliant fish skewers

[@reddyman6915]

FFS ,Rod needs to buy some flipping mozzie coils , a Thermo cell and a 20 litre bucket of Rid . Mucking around with these tarps and nets , just buy a Vango tent which goes up in 2 minutes,a decent head torch , Lucie lights for the camp and a bag of ice for the esky , and a hair cut for good measure 😂 great video 👍

[@PumpkinJack31]

Great video! Thanks. Not every outing can be a high yield adventure. That's part of what makes the content so satisfying.

[@scubajunkie6591]

Midgie bites , yabbies , camping and flathead …. Perfect QLD weekend 😊. Fresh flathead … sooo good . Yes mate totally legal. Luved the vid ! 🙏☝️😊

[@mikel3188]

Great video RoKKiT, love the Homer still while you were fishing.

[@jm7929]

I wonder how many people have offered to pay you to take them on an excursion, just awesome man, thank you.

[@realredstax]

Glad to see another solo camping! Some metal skewers would be pretty nice they help cook the inside of the food a little better as well 😄

[@jop4473]

Absolutely love when I see a new video and an hour long at that. Sweet! Thank you sir.

[@Here4ucantbe]

I have to agree with Rusco Peeko, with all the crap going on all over the world, your videos are a much needed treasure! We can escape the madness and follow you into beautiful scenery, where we wish and hope for your catch and finish up with a dinner that I can usually almost taste. Who could ask for more. Great job as always Rod XOXOX

[@selfretired3025]

Tajin lime seasoning is excellent on veggies, fish, & pasta as well. Metal skewers are sturdy & reusable... but have a thin silicone glove or pad to pick them up with - they get hot!!

[@JohnJones-ng2uh]

Never ceases to amaze me how good these meals look that you make on the beach. Love these camping vids. They are great!

[@michaelellert4982]

Those mini grills are great for camping. I got one around a year ago and have used it so many times. Definitely a purchase you wont regret for solo adventures or even for 2 people.

[@rokkitkit]

Yea it worked great👌

[@drewk3646]

Camping, boating, fishing, and mining for yabbys. This adventure has it all.

[@aaronm8694]

You could take a little juice box packet of coconut milk next time you do a ceviche style meal. The polynesians call it Kokoda (Sounds like KohkohnDah) and its any fish/shell fish, lime juice, coconut milk, chilli, little bit of dice tomato and onion and the herbs you love. Mix it up an serve it in a half coconut shell for that thumbnal glory!

[@BornAgain777-m5t]

Somebody might come back for their measuring board too, maybe it's the same person who lost the hat 😂🎣🐟

[@kevincrawfordfishing]

Another top class video. Love the content Rod, super inspirational! Loving your new boat and set up!

[@SD-ft6gs]

not sure if these products are available in Australia but they have been in the EU for a long time and in the US more recently, but on all my outdoor clothing I apply "Permethrin", and instead of bug spray I have found that "Picaridin" based lotions work best. for fishing/sweating etc... (both of these are in some ways similar to bear spray type products that come from black pepper plant chemicals.) For base camp I end up using Natural "Pyrethrin" Concentrate (the product in those expensive butane burner incense dispensers for camping... Termacell)... not sure if any of these would work with midges as they don't really work with black flies here. but they do work with mosquitos and noseeums... More unsolicited advice from your viewers yay!

[@kuma9069]

What a trip, mate. You turn 'little' into 'scrumptious'.! 👍 a couple of things: mud on the arms & legs is a great bug barrier. Your 'Veritas' pole is a beaut. Your skewers.. wood is fine, doesn't burn ur fingers like metal. Next time, try chopped dill or cilantro instead of thyme. We Frenchies keep thyme for meat, pork & beef. Stay well, bro!

[@floridapatriot9776]

Well a bad day fishing is better than a good day at work. Besides you still whipped up one hell of a meal with those flathead kabobs. I swear my mouth was watering.

[@twinflowerfioretta]

Wow ! Hello Rod, awesome footage from the start of your adventure, it is so exciting and inviting to follow your journey ! Of course i`m in and will be with you out there, i sit back and relaxe lol ! 😍✌💙👍

[@Quake120]

Those skewers of veggies and that flathead looked so good... You eat better on these adventures than most people do in their kitchens :)

[@salo7227]

For all the international viewers, the humble flathead is extremely common all over Australia, but it could be argued that it is almost our best tasting fish. It's commonness makes it easy to dismiss. But a fresh 50 to 60 cm flatty, cooked simply, is glorious.

[@raynman6466]

I wouldn't say "extremely" common haha, I fish in south aus and have a hard time catching even an undersized flatty 😂

[@mikehill3764]

As soon as you posted on fb, I instantly came to watch. Thanks for the heads up!

such a good video love the bread and butter species fishing, thanks for the fish skewers idea!!

[@jwm9360]

Rod, I have watched since your beginnings. I loved the truly down to earth lifestyle most people exist in. Now with new boats, ranger rovers to pull new boats around is great, but you need to get back too old times that made you at what you are. Not saying ditch, the new gear, but do some of old times. really miss them. Just a thought! Best wishes!!

[@elkayakfish]

Another authentic video. Keep up the good work. Your a great creator and seem like an all round good guy.

Looks fun!

Much appreciated Rod 😊 stay safe 🖐

[@baytown213]

Great trip Rod! I wonder if the first flattie was actually closer because the tape didn’t start at 0, or at least it looked like the hash mark for zero wasn’t where the edge was. You probably would not have kept him if he was that close anyways haha. I respect how you only catch and take what you need and release the rest.

Hey mate. Love your videos. Just wanted to say. Don’t put too much water in the yabbies. About 2 inches. They drown. Once we learnt this we could keep them alive for days with water changes periodically. Tight lines mate 👌
