TROUT COUNTRY | Wild Camping and Trout Fishing In The Australian Wilderness

I head back into the Australian Wilderness for a 3 day trout fishing adventure, where I land my first Rainbow Trout! I set up my tarp and wild camp by a river and enjoy some solitude in this beautiful location.

Awesome vid as always. Where is this paradise? Im going on a 12 month cruise around australia and want to add that place to my list :D

[@danielnuttall3985]

I’ve actually been bitten by one up in the murray river, it’s been 3 years since it happened next Australia Day

[@markjacobson8461]

I'll support you on Patreon if you start fly fishing

[@lukeo2528]

Where did you go mate looks interesting

[@franie1210]

I’m a 11 year old and I love hiking bushcraft and the bush but after a long boring day at school combing home and watching your videos is like a holiday in it’s self so thank you for taking your time and effort to make videos that cheer a lot of people up 👍

[@leighcook6792]

absolutely and I am a seasoned fly fisher who loves the western highland lakes of Tasmania - Scotty you rule buddy just love seeing the beautiful bush that we have in Aus...

[@evolutionreviews3816]

I am with you I am 11 too

[@chrislane2952]

You are the future.

[@dsr20631]

Wait a minute.. trout, no injuries and only slightly burnt dinner? Alright who are you and what have you done with the real Scotty 🤔

[@ScottysGoneWalkabout]

😂

[@Geebee238]

I was thinking the same! 👍🏽😂🤣😂👍🏽 Great vid mate and glad you caught a fish yewwww 🤙🏽

[@trudiswanson9855]

😅

[@paulredinger5830]

You’d be able to see into the water with good polarised glasses. Try a mepps size zero vibric lure. Two pound lite line. Deadly on trout in a small creek. Wade up the river keeping your lure in the “strike zone” longer, or in the runs where the fish might be.

[@user-qz1tj9jl8n]

Mate, such a great gesture paying respect to the Aboriginal people that lived that country . Those engravings are pretty special to come across too. 👍

[@allanbond3673]

Rio Tinto have destroyed many sacred native australian sites & they are set to destroy 124 more, spread the word www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2020/sep/21/rio-tinto-expected-to-destroy-124-more-aboriginal-sites-inquiry-told

[@aaronwelch6790]

You capture the vibe for me Scotty . 48yr old whom laid roots in all you convey , done port Stephens inter club - striped Marlin , Arnhem Land nature lodge Barra ... Tuna to flatties . 9 months quarantine - lost brother at Christmas , and just put mother in aged care facility . Your vids capture what's important I feel , and I thank you 👍

[@scottashley3830]

Congratulations on the fish, I hope your inspired to keep fishing!! Blessings ❤

[@stevebourke9769]

Great comments about our indigenous people. They lend a certain magic to our country and we should be proud of them.

[@michaelreppion5]

Cox River rainbows are mostly limited to winter spawn run. Steel heads from deep in Warragamba Dam. They would run after a bit of a rise in the river,so timing is everything.

[@marionprovan3938]

Love all your videos bring life and joy

[@jeanettedavis4240]

Im a 58 year old blk woman who limes watching you. I've been a fan for a while. I love listening to you talk. I'm enjoying the channel keep up the good work

[@laurenceturnbull2808]

I love Bush telly

[@marcelinalumague8741]

I always waching ur video...wonderful nature ilike it from phillipines..

[@lenlemaic7849]

Hi Scotty, watching you remainded me of my days when I started fishing for trout with spinners and hard plastic lures.. All my fortunes turned around when I took up fly fishing i caught so many fish that I retired my lures to the dark obiss of my fishing cupboard. Give it a go you will never go back. Fly fishing is no longer cost prohibitive, as it was in my day. The first fish you catch on a fly line is on me. Tight lines my friend, I look forward to many more of your videos and more fish in your camp frypan.

[@jamalkhan9021]

This was an adventure to watch 🙏🏻. The music alone was 👌🏻

[@_2earthandback_]

You should give fly fishing a shot! Greetings from Colorado, USA! 🙏🏽

[@The_Stoic_PhilosopherAU]

I just got back from a week away! No stress and then I turn on the tv.....nothing’s changed!

[@captkev55]

Walking good, 😁 fishing bad 😫 luv ya work.

[@ringboypunk]

Nice vid mate. Little tip for the trout, in rivers and streams, try straight winding instead of jerking/jigging the lure. Go a little faster than the current so the lure is working. Usually if you use a slow or jerky retrieve, the trout have too much oportunity to look at the lure and realise its not right. But its not a rule or anything. That rainbow was pretty nice! Keep the grouse content coming! :)

[@dazzaoutandabout4870]

Agree agree. Stop jerking the lure Scotty. The action is built into the lure. Straight winding. Cheers mate. You’ll catch them in the places your going.

[@markoda2120]

Keep trying different retrieves until you find out what the fish want.

[@becs1748]

I love the respect you give to country and its traditional owners, the ancestors will always watch over you.

[@Crayator]

Loving the videos man

[@brodiehanks4790]

cray I didn't know you watch scotty im a huge fan of you and scotty well you learn something new every day

[@anythingartificial]

Of course the good man cray watches the legend Scotty

[@bigunit4122]

Lol could we get a collab 😂

[@mickwatson2177]

Red, black stripped silver blade spinner by celta are the go.

[@michaelreppion5]

Yes wombat. Cox River? Went here with my boys in the early 90’s. Have you tried some of the Tassie walks? If you like the bush and adventure Tassie is awesome. Have a look at Rob Parsons on KZbin. I’m 65 and still enjoy everything you do. Camping fishing, snow camping, exploring , canoeing etc but not gin and tonic…seems a bit too urban …

[@goofiegoofball]

Love these videos, I've made so many attempts at catching trout but with no luck. Getting pretty depressing.

[@wahyuhenny3204]

indah nya pemandangan nya

[@evolutionreviews3816]

Nice views

[@werner1273]

21:55 Caught the classic tree trout, really like your videos I watch them on loop, so jealous also want to go camping, Watching from South Africa, keep up the content!

[@gymsyms7998]

Another beautiful video and trip. I really love how you consistently refer to the knowledge and respect you have for Indigenous people.

[@rickfine822]

Scotty, I'm far away in alabama and way older, 62, lifetime outdoors, mostly kayak fishing the last 8 yrs, Im a fan of your work, great images, good music,

[@byroboy]

We've all got a lure stuck in a tree haven't we?

[@daisyparker7638]

Watching the river flow and the sound of running water is so relaxing

[@AmyOutdoors]

Great to see a successful redemption trip Scotty, and beautifully shot, as always 👍 Just love a morning montage!

[@80ZX]

Great video agian Bud. Four words for your Scotty....Green and Gold Celta ! Never fail.

[@PabloP169]

That looked like it has had very high water through that campsite area quite recently, so I hope that you kept your eye on the weather.

[@ricbrown9819]

Try taking a pair of light weight tennis shoe for walking in the river to save your boots.

[@Sgarnoncunce]

even some pluggers would do

[@scobe2812]

Awesome as always. My wife just mentioned how calmer and happier I am after watching your vids. There just seems to be something so relaxing about a campfire, if not your own. And loose a lure in a tree. Been there done that. Scotty you're a bloody treasure. Thanks mate.

[@littlepony6762]

So Beautiful . That Awesome that you caught that Trout Beautiful Fish. Thank You

[@kearnzey]

Me and my 2yr old are watching this together he loves it as do I. Hey you should have a try at night for the bigger trout. Another great watch cheers for sharing 🤙🏽

[@GreencampRhodie]

Thanks for my therapy. Loved the historical axe grinding part. Beautiful camp spot, what a treasure.

[@pattymate1226]

Awesome videos mate, we really do live in the lucky country. Keep em coming and next time the trout takes your lure, set the hook! Cheers cobba

[@tbk2450]

Another cracking vid mate love ya work you and erikofftrack should hook up for a camp 🍻

[@KangIkrom]

i like, nice good job

[@ERIKOFFTRACK]

Nice one Scotty, what a fish mate! Cracking spot and a great video as always. Cheers Erik

[@robertbatzke6982]

Toppeer mate !!

[@12Daze]

Just came across your videos... Good stuff! Great edits.

[@markoda2120]

Thank you for taking us along on another great trip. As for your retrieve, you might want to try changing until you find out what the fish want. Steady retrieve with pauses and pops (or slight pulls). Keep on changing all the combinations until you're successful.

[@MegaSkeet11]

Thanks for posting your videos, the passion you have for our beautiful country is amazing. thanks for taking me to places I never knew existed

[@johnskelly2542]

Robbie Fishing, has lots of great advice re fresh water fishing, maybe worth a look mate

[@teeeff5179]

You make it all beautiful Scotty, thank you.

[@patmiller4535]

You need to pick-up the fly rod my friend! Great vid

[@GB-cm6yy]

Another great video Scotty, thank you. Thrown many a fly down there during the spawning season. Both the main river and the smaller tributary upstream that you camped on. They are had to catch this time of the year because they are locked into breeding so I wouldn't be too disheartened. Most strikes are out of aggression as opposed to hunger.

[@marianfrances4959]

Always love your videos! Thank you!!!!!😉🇨🇦

[@menglandau]

Another great video. Keeping those of us locked down 5kms from home from going crazy.

[@KayakingCalifornia]

I was wondering about snakes and other critters down there in Australia that might crawl into your open tent while you were sleeping.

[@jh8111]

Hey Mate, as a hunter myself that does a lot of remote solo hunts I don’t go anywhere without my snakeproof gaiters. Moroka30 make them they’re an Australian company, and well made, comfortable, and most importantly bite tested on the snakes.

[@markwis5285]

Still remember my first trout caught. Was in the USA and Was 9 years old..

[@PushYaSelf]

in regards to the wet boot issue bro, look up vibram toe shoes (y) pretty lightweight be easy to sling them on the exterior of your pack for the river crossing situations when fishing/trekking up stream :) love your videos, keep it up! also more fly fishing please? ;)

[@200EXPLORE]

Scotty couple of fishing tips! - for trout fishing you should try and be less aggressive with the rod movements. A strait slow retrieve in the streams is all that’s required

[@alphauniformsierraaustrali5302]

Some more Australian fishing/camping videos, finally KZbin is getting the algorithm right!

[@ivansiladji]

Your videos bring me so much joy and calm.

[@charlescoult]

Never knew australia had rainbow trout! Cheers from California! Great video

[@JasonMcCann841]

Great job with the fish! Now the fun begins. Thanks for taking us along.

[@SnowysOutdoors]

Far out, we're so lucky to have that beautiful landscape in our backyard! Thanks for the vid, Scotty! Cheers, Laine

[@highcountryoutdoors4929]

Another great vid mate. First rainbow too! Awesome. They're so much fun to catch. Well done

[@kaisersdad]

Awesome video Scotty. Nothing better than kicking back and watching one of your adventures. So professionally filmed.

[@bronzewilldo1657]

Good on ya mate! Looks like up my neck of the woods.Invest in some Gaiters and you will cell like super man!

[@bronzewilldo1657]

Feel sorry haha got a flint and steel kit the other day too if your keen on a catch and cook couple of nights in the BM’s let us know

[@thecraftiekiwi4919]

easy with the snagged lures scotty! i may or may not have had one end up lodged in my leg...

[@devono7230]

I’ve never had any problems drinking water straight from the rivers in Australia. Some looked a bit dodgy and got boiled. Wombat skull. Try some fishing lures called celta #2 or #3

[@Coolielocal]

Love your Work and love your soothing voice♥️♥️♥️

[@codeofsuccess9577]

Ohh my goodness! Please keep doing videos like this. Watching you doing what I wanna do, makes me happy. Thank you.

[@grantthepilgrim]

Looks like great dry fly water. Great video.

[@heathercolomb9754]

That was so beautiful the scenery was so amazing . Wow so beautiful 😍

[@rodbishop1470]

Ya FINALLY caught a fish!.. Good on ya mate. Love the videos.

[@haydaral-ali8612]

Your videos are so calming to watch

[@Daradajee]

My favourite jolly swag man! Nice rainbow trout, fishing for trout in the middle of the day isn't productive stick to morning and late afternoon.

[@HanHongOutdoors]

nature is really beautiful

[@barrylowe8724]

Love your work Scotty, I've been cramming your videos in while I'm recovering from a hip replacement, and my wife and I think we may be a little bit converted. Converted from the 4wd plus trailer packed to the hilt type camping, to walk in - walk out hiking type camping, starting with a few small trips. With some of my trips to trout country in the past, rather than use lures (some streams are very small) I would use a small hook on an un-weighted line (6lb) and put a grub/worm or grasshopper etc on and sneak up to the edge where some small rapids ran into a pool, gently lower the bait and let the current carry and naturally present it to the waiting fish further down and out of sight. This method is very successful and I've even had trout jump out trying to grab the bait as I lowered it. Love the videos, keep it up 👍

[@reidclementino3590]

Unreal vid scotty! Love your stuff man perfect for a morning coffee and relaxing. Keep crushing it legend!

[@myotherlinefishing]

Fishing tip trout are keen on the color gold. Gold minnows and similar usually work well. Great vid, nice catch! Thank you 🙏

[@graywolf2025kh]

Great to see you finally caught a fish. I must say I love watching your videos you look like you have a blast out there.

[@jimbomclachlan5892]

Living the dream

[@Jo33333]

Scottie Go for a lighter presentation and smaller lurers when it is a sunny bright day.... as trout are spooked by shadows and abit shy during the day when the sun is high up !! Natural colours work the best as well.

[@trudiswanson9855]

Omg, I love the creeks of this beautiful country! Such a pretty Trout ! Congratulations on that catch! 🐞🇭🇲

[@jaiwarner2684]

I really like how informational you are with fauna and flora, great amounts of knowledge! keep it up

[@lukas1664]

your a legend at 99% of the things you do, once fishing comes in then your inner Russell Coight comes out lol

[@diceman2004]

What a beautiful stream .I can.t believe you didn't catch more fish there . And ya man , that trout slime is a protective coating which is somewhat of an antibacterial layer on their skin . Do not grab them with dry hands .Always wet your hands in the water before you grab them . Trout are a very sensitive , and they can get skin infections very easily if you rub the slime off with your dry hands .

[@alexsss79]

and this is why I love being an australian btw living in australia in general

[@OutdoorsmanDave]

Nice tarp configuration, come to New Zealand we have lots of trout and no snakes. Well done on your catch.

[@aussieinkorea593]

So happy for you that you caught a fish Scotty. Don't go too hard on yourself about the camera work. You're doing a fantastic job and I always enjoy the videos. Take care and look forward to the next video.

[@richardparrott7192]

A FISH! HOORAY! Excellent vid as always, great to chill out to.

[@hikerinaustralia]

Nice adventure. Congrats on landing a pretty decent fish! You have perfected that style of tarp pitch.. it really is your go to set up now.

[@ScottysGoneWalkabout]

Thanks mate. Yep it's defiantly my favourite tarp setup. Lot's of room and good cover 👍

[@brodiehanks4790]

im loving the videos and you super entertaining keep up the good work scotty

[@soundzrinmygarden3833]

Another cracking vid, and you caught a fish, cheers Scotty

[@DebOxy]

c'mon Scotty wheres the mato sauce for the snags lol

[@Sgarnoncunce]

quality snags only need mustard if anything. If you want sweet throw some caramelised onions in

[@inthewoodswithbigfoot3941]

HooRoo Mate! It's wild to see that you guys are getting Spring as we are getting Autumn here in the states.

[@lennoxbishop7110]

good stuff mate keep them coming

[@AussieHunta]

Another great vid. And skull is indeed a wombat

[@theforestdude2587]

He Scotty, I think your videos are really good and also that you tell about the nature of your country . Thank you and please keep it up 😁✌️

[@artoleus]

Always brightens my day to see another of your vids released. Such high quality work.

[@adamarnold3154]

Thanks Scotty, another epic trip and upload 👍🏻
