The government should pay you because nobody has ever made me want to visit Australia like you do. Unofficial ambassador of tourism you are. I never knew there was pine trees and snow and lush forests in Australia til I saw your channel.

[@dudemanismadcool]

yeah I think a lot of people would be surprised by Australia. Most of Australia is a dry hostile desert but the East coast for example is a belt of god given beauty ranging from the far North Queensland at the top of the country all the way down to the South to Melbourne. In fact if one wanted, they could almost walk the entirety of Melbourne to Brisbane in a chain of near unbroken pristine forests and bushland, with fresh running creeks littered throughout.

[@lexatrice2600]

True

[@emenefer]

@@dudemanismadcool It looks beautiful. And it seems like there are less restrictions than in the US. I feel like a lot of the good land here have no trespassing signs and fences.

[@rowanschindler354]

@@emenefer As an Australian, I appreciate your point of view, but in actual fact much of Australia is privately locked up. Our National Parks system is also very strict on hunting and camping etc. Free camping is illegal in most places. There are only a few National Parks where you can camp outside of designated camping zones.

[@jaycavanagh]

I agree 👍 💯

[@jaykingsun7093]

Let's just take a minute to appreciate how much walking Scotty does. Going past the camera, only to walk back and pick it up. Love your work mate!

[@Red.OG.]

Watch survivor man

[@dl3661]

Scotty is THE most responsive KZbinr/social media guy I've ever contacted. He has always responded to my comments and random questions; from "what hiking boots do you wear?" To "which NRL team do you follow?". His videos have always helped me chill out and inspired some cooking. I liked and still cook his cauliflower tacos with coleslaw. 👍 He gives me something to look forward to watching in quite grey Hull (,east Yorkshire)

[@momentum680]

Yoo what’s the recipe for these cauliflower coleslaw tacos?

[@Jim-yk9zw]

Funny you say that cos he actually responds to a minuscule number of comments lol. I understand there isn't time to respond to everyone but I honestly got a chuckle that you think that in general.

[@ScottysGoneWalkabout]

Thanks heaps mate.

[@ScottysGoneWalkabout]

@@Jim-yk9zw I admit that I'm pretty slack at replying to comments on KZbin, as there's just so many comments and it literally takes hours to reply to everyone. What I think he is referring to is instagram, as I do my best to get back to everyone who private messages me. I find Instagram a lot easier to chat to people than KZbin.

[@Jim-yk9zw]

@@ScottysGoneWalkabout Like I said mate I understand because there's probably a thousand/s and you can only respond to so many however I don't use instagram so maybe you are right on that one.

[@auslifeandy]

I grew up fly fishing and when ever I watch one of your fly fishing / camping vids makes me want to get out with the rod ! Moved to aus 3 years ago and haven’t done much since moving here ! Love your vids mate 👍

[@lidianrcs269]

Congratulations for your videos and your impeccable work. It feels like we're all there with you on every adventure.

[@GoingSoloOutdoors]

Gorgeous landscapes, crystal clear river, rainbow trout catch/cook and a really beautiful spot for a camp! Your videos are always a fun escape!

[@DestinationOffroad]

Amazing part of this country. Love it

[@ladyadventurer5095]

Awesome! What a treat, love your adventures, Scotty, love your attitude, and love your part of our amazing world.... thanks for sharing and all the work that goes into these productions! 👍

[@hillbilly067]

I can notice and appreciate the extra effort in Scotty's filming in this video. Particularly the underwater release. Great stuff.

[@melvinvaldez7734]

Great video! Love how relaxing this was and cant ever go wrong with Trout!

[@hansschmid3937]

What a wonderful river valley...a rare wonder in our world...thank you for showing?🙏🙏🙏

[@jammincs]

Love your videos man. Always so relaxing and great vibes. Thanks for the therapeutic videos. Cheers.

[@Jimmcgregorphotography]

Wow I arrived here only two minutes after you uploaded. Now for some great viewing

[@flash2mc]

That’s defo your best worst cooking demo. Loved it. Even when it doesn’t go to plan it still goes to plan. Beautiful words about that spot, a great way to spend time doing not much at all. Keep them coming Scotty!

[@jaysoncopas45]

Love your videos Scotty from Queensland keep up the good work

[@neon_editingtutorials9046]

after a stressful week of work in the city, it's nice to spend the weekend in this kind of place. Very peaceful and calming.

[@ecornely]

Hello from EU Belgium, I still enjoy your videos with the exact balance between nature - adventure - gear info - aso. Thanks a million !

[@clintgoode7019]

Hey Scotty , great work . Your vids are great to watch , so tranquil and peaceful . Pleasure to watch

[@kristoffer-robinlotze7273]

Nice little river you found. Must say the envy is quite high sitting here in Sweden looking at the melting snow at 2°C. 😂😜 About pronouncing Fjällräven, think of a with two dots as ae in health, wealth and so on. And it means arctic fox in Swedish. End of lesson. 😀

[@bobmanzi7712]

great stuff thanks . That spot was beautiful i can see why you enjoy it so much.

[@andrewpolzin8489]

Awesome catch on the fly and the scenery is just next level. Thanks for sharing such a rad mission.

[@aussierick2688]

Aww yes, another video. Thanks heaps Scotty 😃

[@martwilman]

I'm really enjoying your videos Scotty, thanks and keep them coming!

[@mnm2481]

Really liked the scenery in this one and your recipe ideas are always a winner regardless, thanks Scotty

[@mudgutzadventures436]

Loved the Underwater footage of the Trout release

[@dianapurdy7755]

What a stunning place. Lovely video

[@rustynuts69]

Ohhhh I'm excited when I get home 🔥🔥 love ya work Scotty 🎉

[@arthurplottier9783]

What a beautiful river and surroundings bush. Got also to love the melody by the variety of birds. Thanks for sharing

[@SimpleLivingOkinawa]

Scotty, sorry to say, but I burst out laughing at your 'sauce'! Never mind, you made a kind of ghee in the end, and baked your potatoes in the clarified butter. The curd bits just became like cottage cheese floaties 😁 I loved this type of video - simple trip but the country is stunning and the sounds were lovely. I'd buy a DVD/digital video if you ever decided to make 'nature videos' with just the sounds of nature. I miss the sounds of Australian birds and the bush.

[@hanksbud2544]

Another great video Scotty. Fabulous, taking us along.

[@philmenzies2477]

Your content just gets better every time!

[@fishingfables3971]

Your fishing has come a long way over the last year Scotty. Great stuff 🎣

[@garymoyle1988]

Great video Scotty . Thanks again mate ...

[@Love2Wander]

Amazing and beautiful place nice fish and the food looks good. Thanks for sharing and stay safe my friend

[@inthewoodswithbigfoot3941]

Thanks Scotty! With Spring approaching, you have me keen to break out my fly rod as well! Great video! HooRoo!!!

[@coloradocatchcleanandcook3426]

Such a relaxing video.

[@shaddonaghue]

Awesome mate ripper video, the river looks awesome 😎 .

[@jesswilson366]

Stunning spot!

[@thebikepackingadventurer]

As always super chilled vibes and awesome edit to the video Scotty. So glad I got recommended to your channel recently

[@catherinegowan1362]

Beaut video Scotty. Great trout fishing. Hint...Try cooking your flour down with butter and garlic first then add cream. Presto! Creamy garlic.sauce. look forward to your next attempt. Cheers and beers from south of Perth

[@Nick-Bidayuh.]

This area looks very beautiful and calm.

[@johnwells4536]

Another great video. It's always such a gorgeous place yet you always seem to be the only one around. Must be great to have it all to yourself. Like living in paradise!

[@starwatcher727]

Great river Amazing shots, stay fly!

[@atcay81]

Top notch underwater camera view Scotty 🙌 Awesome upload as always... Everything was just pure heartfelt quality. Cat 🇦🇺🙃

[@marksadventures3889]

Chilled and quiet- that's the kind of video I love to watch. Nice one fella 👍

[@diverjake12]

So epic!

[@weezerr2d283]

Fantastic video…always enjoying your content…take care !!

[@rogerbarretoalvarez1839]

🦘🎣⛰Cada aventura es tan relajante, con paisajes tan bonitos que uno se sumerge completamente como si estuviese en ese lugar. Gracias 🦘

[@creek2mountain261]

Love that river man. Been fishing awesome the last few years.

[@countrybowwow]

Hello, my friend Thank you for the great video. I love your channel! Have a happy day.👍🏼

[@raynewman4904]

Great clip Scotty.

[@pc3585]

Doesn’t matter how your cooking looks when it’s only for yourself. ❤

[@redwatts9535]

Scotty, might I suggest when you do your fishing trips, you try wearing a dark coloured top/t shirt to lessen your visual impact on the fish. The light coloured tops make you stand out, especially as you're waving your arms and upper body about and with a dark top your image will tend to blend in with the background. Good luck mate, love the vids 😃, keep ém coming 🤩

[@BrianCapezzone]

hahaha....the potatoes were a little sketchy but the end product looks good....and the fish looks amazing! thanks for another awesome video!!

[@topselectionsurvivalgear]

Fantastic choice of campsite and gear!

[@anthonysgro8041]

Great spot Cheers Scott 🍺

[@maximus.decimus.meridius.1982]

I could live by this river forever 👌

[@perfectspotfishing]

This video is so inspiring 🤩 amazing job

[@INTHEOUT]

Just found your channel. Good stuff man! My kids are dual citizens. Love seeing Trout fishing in OZ. Cheers from Washington State 🍻

[@wanderlustadventuresph]

Fantastic episode I love it. :)

[@RoughlockOutdoors]

That river looks absolutely amazing to fish and camp at!! Nice to see a Fly rod VS a tradition rod/reel!!

[@geoffhonky4439]

Great vid mate, beautiful location 👌 I'm just starting to set up a pack myself. I can't wait to head out bush. Thanks for the reminder of how beautiful our country is.

[@mezanian]

Lovely spot to camp, reminds me of Kangaroo Valley.

[@chrishayman1747]

Scotty don’t add garlic to super hot pan. Black equals bitter.

[@louiskudlak2256]

Bloody awesome area, my kind of camping/swimming

[@exmouthsportfishing6237]

Bloody beautiful mate so looking forward to getting over that side of the country in September and doing some of them rivers thanks for another great vid

[@Dave-ww5tl]

Hey Scotty, when I was in Scouts no1 thing you wouldn’t do is camp next to the river in case rain weather upstream flooded you out

[@The_Stoic_PhilosopherSH]

What a spectacular opening…😳😀

[@Andyb2379]

100 % agree Scotty, sometimes you just gotta slow right down & let nature nourish your mind & soul. It will recharge you & make you understand what beauty there is when take time to look & breathe. Wow that was very much philosophy from me 😂 Cheers mate.

[@davidgould3409]

Lovely Scottie!!!

[@jack_Thai]

ชอบวิธีการตกปลา และ วิธีทำอาหารของคุณมากครับ 😊

[@EB240]

Awesome scotty, looks like a ripper spot

[@ZakariKha]

Another great video mate. Such lovely spots and great to see you land some. About time Fjallraven sponsor you

[@Lukeslittletribe]

Loved this video mate. That water looked so beautiful and clear. Got me keen for a trout fish this weekend. And your messed up cheese sauce still looks better then most of my camp cooking 🤣 Well done.

[@rikkim4818]

Yet another amazing camp Scotty. Even if l had a million dollars ld been just happy living right there in a lil tent next to that beautiful river. Thank u .

[@susanalbone5101]

Enjoyable as ever. Simple but full of content. Lovely spot too. Well done on catching supper, shame about the cheese sauce (roux) but everyone learns by their mistakes. Take care, be safe. ❤ Dorset, UK

[@redweston7925]

Scotty as fellow Aussie I can say I love your videos and what you do to show off some of the awesome wild places in Oz. One of my favourite things to do on a day off is to crack a beer and watch one of your vids, however as a professional chef I can say watching you try an make that potato bake has been one of my favourite cook ups you’ve done, I was cracking up the whole time 😂 ( to be fair the end result looked pretty decent). Any way mate love the content and good on ya for giving everything a red hot crack. Ooroo

[@charlesarmstrong5292]

Great little river Scotty. That good `ol Royal Wulff did the trick for you. Glad you`ve taken to fly fishing.

[@vivianth.myhobbies]

Congratulations that your channel got over 100k now really happy for you i was subscribed since you have 10k. Your channel deserves more subscribers and views. Cheers up!😊

[@DoraSarpong-is2rl]

That food and sauce is not a fail. Food is food. So long as it’s edible and not burnt😊

[@lilly9787]

Best cooking video yet 😅 seriously though, absolutely love your videos 😊

[@bibekdanuwar2976]

Really great vedio man

[@nickmcarr617]

Hey bloke, loved the video. Try starting the next quiet creekwith something less loud than the Royal Wulff, as you said- gin clear water, easy to spook them. Fantastic spot!

[@marianfrances4959]

Beautiful Rainbow Trout! I always enjoy your fishing! Jelly of the weather! We've had TONS of snow! Tks for sharing a beautiful river. 👍🇨🇦😎 P.S. I'd eat that buttery sauce! 😄

[@judyrobinson9556]

Beautiful river area and camping spot. Good fishing there. Have you ever tried poutine? French fries covered with gravy and cheese curds on top. The cheese melts. A popular camping dish in Canada, Michigan and Wisconsin.

[@sonyavincent7450]

If you want an easy option for cheese sauce in future, Maggi makes a packet option for about $1. Just add boiling water.

[@theholycow8448]

Have to say mate I've watched just about every video, seeing your genuine love of the Aussie bush is quite inspiring. It's something every Aussie should do ( at least once ) I grew up not far from where this is. It's a beautiful part of NSW. Never stop the good work mate. If you are ever near Wauchope, please call in and say hello. Would love to send you off into the scrub with some decent tucker. We have a beaut little butchers on the edge of some beautiful places. Keep the dream alive mate and keep loving what you are doing.

[@johngrigorian3093]

Where about in NSW is this mate?

[@AussieBushLawyer]

Scotty, that baked potato attempt was hilarious, made the video even better. Beautiful river, one of my favourite vids of yours mate! Also as someone else mentioned, don't char the garlic till it burns try cooking it on lower heat for a little.

[@ivandrain5959]

Awesome video

[@marcknight4568]

Scotty is a great 👩‍🍳 chef

[@jerniganinc1085]

Great video

[@blackbirdxx4613]

Good stuff scotty.....

[@kattriet]

I'm amazed by the different sceneries you can find in Australia, so beautiful. I was actually thinking of suggesting Keb52 to you in your last video haha, I also had the Friluft45 but went over to this one a while ago, it's a really great pack.

[@wenology824]

its beautiful land...

[@jameshodges4960]

Nice cross body casts at the end 😊

[@mountainlife99]

Your nature view is very beautiful

[@pribumi16]

good fishing technique 👍

[@WillemLuntungan]

[@dlspoon]
