The fact you apologize to the fish says a lot about your character as a person. Its very admirable. Love seeing a notif pop up to see a video from you, keep up that fantastic content!

Only a fool would watch your videos on an empty stomach. I've finally learned from my past mistakes, haha. Wonderful video, as always. And the cooking.... Fantastic mate. Wish you and your family the best for this last stretch of 2021!

I’m new to the channel- I’ve binged watched all of your camp and cook vids. Looking forward to this one

Your dinner looked so good this time . And I now need A dribble bib .

Greetings from California! Love the content my guy. You’re living every middle aged man’s dream!

Perfect timing, get home from night duty, crack a beer and watch a new Rod video.

loving the sounds of the waves crashing, makes me miss the beach

Love from Texas. I wish I could like your videos twice.

I love being dry and comfortable on a tent when it’s tipping it down outside.

Seriously the most enjoyable youtube to watch! I could watch videos that were hours long! Hope to see you on some awesome trips with Misty soon!

Those are definitely compy tracks. This little island must be close to the Jurassic Park island….life always finds a way. You’re living the dream Rod!

Got a new job...and it allows me to watch your videos while I get paid...gotta love Fridays

Awesome I was looking forward for another fishing trip!

25:59 that clown fish is like, "Who are you and why are you in my waters?"

Awesome!! Great vid once again mate. Hope you and the family are doing wonderful. :)

Great looking recipe fish,rice,egg and veggie nature at the best keep it rokkiting 🇨🇦

My favourite these island ones. Beautiful island and meal looked fit for a king.

That meal looks absolutely delicious.😊😊

Great video. That meal looked really good.

Wow ,all those clown fish just beautiful to see in the wild 👍 thanks Rod .!!!

that meal looks fantastic, makes me think of what I could cook :)

Greetings from South Africa Love your videos bru keep it up 👌

I absolutely love your videos, so positive and relaxing. To be totally honest although I've "watched" most of your solo camping vids I've really only actually seen about half of each one! Your videos are so relaxing they knock me out quick!

I always love your solo camping, its what i want most - to go on a remote place like you, and have some adventure, - and going back in comfort home is than much better! Thanks, very enjoyable your vid. and your coocking is superb good!💦💛

Man you sure know how to cook a feast. Delish.

You sound just like my dad with your expressions & terminology, this is what keeps me watching. Have a good one. Ciao..!

Rain on a tent is such a soothing sound. I don’t do it enough.

That’s how you can tell Rod uses his equipment properly and to the fullest, your gear has definitely given you some good trips and it shows 💪 good thing Christmas is around the corner!

Great video as usual Rod! Always enjoy your adventures!

I'm a chef at a four star resort and I would bet you've worked in restaurants at some point in your life. Your prep work and presentation skills are commendable.

Another one of those videos where I close my eyes because I'm afraid around one of those blind corners is going to be a shark!! Such a beautiful video with beautiful sea life! ANDDD 5 star restaurant cuisine. It doesn't get better than this!!! THANKS ROD!!! XOXOXOX

type of life i wanna live . beautiful nature

Him and YBS are just great!!

What i like about your vids ? nothing is fake and you don't need the fluff other streamers use. keep it real and keep it coming.

That's not how we cook couscous! But it's great to see you trying something from my culture and mentioning my country ❤ love your content 💕

I love it when he posts really turns one of my crappy days amazing!

Please do more spearfishing and cook more big meals because I think those big meals got more people interested like me.😎👊👍👍👌👏

"Actually quite delicious!" What a joke, mate! :D ... Love your videos!

Man these videos are almost therapeutic. The relaxing and low key quality keeps me coming back.

Saturday morning in Germany, and my entertainment is granted. Awful video, thank you so much🤩 btw. setting up the tent at the spot with most deer footprints is nothing but brave💪

Your content and person in general is very therapeutic!!

that dish looks so delish with the roe on top

The orchestra in the background is fantastic and complements the whole video

Another amazing adventure with a great meal....🎣✌️👍🍻

If there was ever a guy who deserves more subscribers/exposure, it's Rod.

As soon as you filmed out the window i knew exactly where you were ! Hope you enjoyed your stay here man!

Goats on that Island Rod😊

All the real fishermen watching this felt their guts drop to their nuts when you said "reefed me"... we all knew that was the only small swimmer.. knew it had to be on the first cast...and knew it was the fish of the day... 🙄 because we all been RIGHT there... props for staying positive all the time mate! Another real video wrought with the despair of Murphy's law!! Keep on keeping on man!!

Perfect vid to watch after a sh*tty day. Makes me want to quit my job and go to a place where there is nobody.

the first fish of this chapter was hilarious! everyone who fishes small vessels in big water can relate

easily one of your best looking meals!!!

Always look forward to the videos and scenery!!!

Fantastic video. Mate, you are living the dream. I always look forward to your next installment. The Adventures of Rod! 🇬🇧

Nice vid Rod. Very relaxing Boxing Day viewing . Cheers mate.

Thanks Rod as usual, the fish, I could smell and taste, yum. Merry Christmas to you and your family. Thanks for the enjoyable vids.

Yum. I can smell how amazing that is through my screen. Or at least I can imagine. Lol

I know what’s for dinner this weekend! LOVE replicating all of your recipes, they are ALL fantastic 👍🏻

Love the true kit

Nothing better than fresh Stripey. No grubs, blood worms or ink spots like Coral Trout.. No risk if ciguatera poison either. 👍

You're videos are the most satisfying thing I watch. A good way for me and hundreds of others to relax. Now the jealousy I have of the fresh fish on a beach camping is another story! Keep it up man!!!!

Hello from Berlin and thanks for your videos, such a different world 🏝

I do think this is one of the best channels I have ever subscribed to years on I still find every video entertaining.

That was a full on feast wow

Thats look so delicious bro what awesome adventure enjoying it a lot keep it up 👍😎

So satisfying when you get the tent up before the rain hits.

A meal fit for a king 😋

That first spot where you were catching the cod looked great for big squid

watched the video and made this dish for dinner, aside from the roe and sand, I must say it was an awesome meal.

Love the rain sprint

Love watching your solo trips mate keep them coming can’t wait to see your vids with the new boat either be brilliant, Merry Christmas

Damn the meal is 🔥

Awesome solo adventure. I know that new boat of yours has kept you busy. Some fishing time is a good thing.

Always a good watch when trying to recover from a hangover, great content as always Rod 👍👍👍👍👍

Still watching, that was a hell of a meal you made. So much food I don't even think I could eat half of that in one sitting but I suppose I could be that hungry after doing as much work just to get to that point as well as how long it might of been since your last meal. I am salivating for some fresh fish.

Rod, Happy Holidays to you and your family. Looking forward to seeing more catch and cook videos along with the camping. Also good luck with your new sailboat. Can't wait too see more videos on that.

Great vid Rod. Can't wait for part 2. Great meal made me hungry, and it's only 8.30 am

love the vids and the cooking always makes me Hungry

Living like a king love it

Always love a good solo camping trip video!

Another great video thanks. I'd really like a tent with an inbuilt water catchment design for days like these..

This channel and the Chris Bamman channel are the 2 top outdoor/fishing/camping Aussie YT channels I reckon.

came here for the food, they always look fantastic

You videos makes me so hungry!

Awesome as always Rod

Great footage of the cleaner wrasse and the clowns mate👌

Love watching your adventures man, I really wish I could do things like this even though the deep ocean feels terrifying haha. I love fishing and love camping and these videos you share are so cool and fun. I need to watch them more often honestly. I love how you describe everything you are doing and the decisions you are making as you go. I also cherish your appreciation of nature as you go throughout your video. Sending all my love to you and your loved ones. Hope you have a great end to the year, be well my friend and thank you for sharing with us.

That rain on the tent sounded sooo relaxing

Thank you again Rod for bringing us along with you. Super jealous of how such a beautiful scenery is so close to home for you. Happy holidays and keep it NICE.

I don't think anyone has ever measured the right amount of couscous! Nice vid Rod as usual 🤙🏻

Your videos are awesome I love your enthusiasm and positive outlook, I’ve been hooked! I love that you show how beautiful Australia really is, definitely planning a trip out there for sure!!! - Cheers from Denver Colorado

Really enjoyed this video! Made me feel like I was experiencing everything

Your video is a great experience. Camping is really cool🖤

Nice mourh watering meal!

Ahhh good to see you back on the catch and cook vids. These are my favorite kinds of videos from you and I don't even eat fish.

Another fantastic video. Got me through the end of my shift here at work. I especially loved the fact that you cooked the meal and showed all of it. keep up the great work!

Epic video Rod your dinner made my mouth water. What a colorful looking dish. You prepared it with little effort. Question who influenced your cooking skills mom or dad. Anyways stay safe out there and have a blessed day. Aloha from Kansas
