My soft American feet are amazed at all of you Australians that run around barefoot! Thanks for the videos. Makes me want to take a long trip around the world to find some great fish

[@cameroncunningham9033]

Thank you for the content, the respect you show the Traditional Owners and the chance to watch and forget where I am sitting in the middle of winter.

[@WildReaches]

You’re welcome Cameron, we were just saying on our Patreon call that we met past the shortest and hopefully coldest day of the year. It’s up from here mate

[@60gidget]

Thanks for a great show again guys. Thank you Jordan for allowing us to see your country. We too have our traditions and we too believe that when an uninvited guest just appears in our home, our belief is it is spirit coming to pay a visit. Or if we do go to strange place, especially if we have kids or babies, we must call them back when we leave. or not shout loud and always tell the land owners we are here in peace.

[@rossjohnstone4195]

Fantastic country brus, great episode and great vibes...keep them coming

Thanks Ross 🤙🏼

Croc slides, snake grass, scallop shells and barra whoa, what amazing country, cheers Nath and Jordan amazing episode, Jordan your tattoos look cool do they tell a story? Cheers guys please keep going love watching

[@WildReaches]

Hey Brendan, glad you liked it mate, yeah so much going on when you get to these remote spots. That’s why we keep coming back! 🤙🏼

What a difference that tide change made, mullet skipping around, Watching the Barra smashing the surface was great from the lounge could only imagine the rush / excitement river side. The Barra Slayer strikes again with a kracka, Jordan looks like he was made to fish. Man that looked Sooo sketchy fishing from the bank with the amount of slides that were about. Loving this season Cheers.

[@WildReaches]

Yeah it’s definitely a rush when it turns on like that and everything goes to plan. That’s because he spends 90%of his waking hours with a rod in his hand 😂

Great home grown content, spectacular scenery , great fishing and plenty of bush Tucker and First nation people knowledge. Beats watching television and that's a 9.5 out of 10 from myself. Half a point deducted because I envy you fullas experience. To deadly brother's.🐟🐟🐟

Great episode mate. Thank you

You’re welcome Adrian

[@bunyipdan]

The shells @12:00 is a bivalve know as Windowpane Oysters (Placuna placenta), the distinctive V notch is where the muscle attaches to the shell, they are quite common in tropical Australia, they sit vertically in the sediment like razor clams, can be eaten (when found alive), sometimes can develop a small low grade pearl but have been commecially harvested for their ornimental qualities (used in things like lamp shades and chandeliers)

[@WildReaches]

Wow, thanks Dan. That’s awesome. Would be great to find some to eat.

[@bunyipdan]

@@WildReaches you’ll need to get a little wetter to find these fellas alive they don’t really like to dry out,…..may be a bit risky with the handbags hanging round

Great stuff guys. Hope your feeling better Nathan

[@WildReaches]

Thanks Jon, much better mate

[@theoneandonlyowl3764]

Some nice barra caught. Good luck with your gear, I know how knocking-around the top end can damage things if not tied down properly. Regardless, the adventure will be worth any damage. Keep safe from the crocs... they're nasty buggers and best luck with the fishing... and shooting, if you're able, should be good too.

[@WildReaches]

Yep the top end is rough on gear. Thanks for watching and being a part of it Owl 🤙🏼

[@bigd4000]

Another great vid Nath and Jordan u make me miss that country an fishing so much I just wanna pack my truck and head back up👌 Nath the editing/drone footage/music etc is spot on mate double 👍👍 Stay safe guys 🤙

Awesome episode once again Nath! What a hot little session that was, what a legend Jordo is! Amazing country once again mate! Pitty you didn’t peg one of those big salmon in that shallow creek mate! Would have been psycho land based! That setup you have has really evolved into an awesome piece of equipment mate, very well though out and very versatile! Thanks for the hard work legend! Loooovvveee it! #1

[@jayhaagmans]

As boring as it is! Jordan is right! Levies would have been the go, but a massive snooze fest! Haha

[@WildReaches]

Gday Jay! Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed it. Yep it’s constantly evolving, that’s the best way to get it right hey. I can’t explain how amazing that little window of fishing was, the cameras don’t really show it, it was pretty special to witness. Hope you’re well mate

[@jayhaagmans]

@@WildReaches yeah good mate, hope you are feeling much better! Yeah it never does mate, but I get the vibe of it! Been crazy busy but planning a trip to Arnhem Land with the young lad for the end of August! Should be good! He’s only9 but a little frother on the lure fishing! Should be a nice getaway

[@roypowell3450]

Hello Nath we missed you last week. This was very good well worth waiting for what a lovely area, you have got a good chap there with Jordon. Well as you know by now we like to try to keep up. Cheryl came in whilst Jordon was jumping through the grass and thought you were filming in our back garden this week 😗. I must take issue with you, I tried the pop corn fish. I bought this new machine took the lid off to early and got pop corn every bloody where, we spent the next hour trying to stick it to the fish....disaster!! Update on the Aussie wave, just about perfection, looking forward to trying it out😚. Anyway tola Roo until next week, looking forward to it already! Your number 1 UK fans. 🦐🚤🍻

[@WildReaches]

Gday guys, ok first up, it’s Hoo Roo… not tola roo but 10 points for effort there. Secondly, when you think you have mastered the wave, try harder. And thirdly, the popcorn fish, it’s not… never mind… Looking forward to seeing you both in Aus soon

[@roypowell3450]

Addictive watching from 15,000 km away! Just curious - why no boots in snake country?

[@WildReaches]

15000 kms! Where’s that? Iv just always been barefoot. I like to feel connected and I can sneak better barefoot. Thru the long grass sucks but it was good enough for the old people it’s good enough for me.

@@WildReaches mud flats in the bays. I was the fella who was messaging you on instagram (from Yarrabah).

[@dearSamuelSamuel1]

run a stake into the ground near the water that has a pulley on the top. Use winch from ute to stake then back to bow of the boat, winch it towards the water. Mechanical advantage, stuff pushing it liie that every time

[@WildReaches]

Sounds like a good strategy 👍🏼 it may have to be an 8 foot stake tho as that mud is bottomless.

@@WildReaches made the comment before I finished the video then saw how you winch off the quad - so rad. Good content, new to the channel but enjoying it🤙
