Join me for a solo wild camping trip where I explore a river rich in both history and beauty and abundant in wildlife. I find an epic cave to camp in and have a go at fishing for carp. This was a super fun trip. Hope you enjoy it.

Yet another cracking video Scotty! It’s my monthly dose of pure relaxation. I know that you don’t like to pinpoint exact locations in order to not spoil the area, however it would be great if you could give a rough idea where each place you travel to is for those that don’t know whereabouts you are in Oz, or for those looking to make their own adventure that like that particular terrain or style of walk.

How you report about nature, the indigenous people and your thinking really got me! Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Warm greetings from Germany. Light and love for you! 🙏

Amazing country mate. Such beautiful areas. As for the Carp yes they are a pest and I know most hate them but they are great sport too and in NSW it is legal to return them. As for eating them dispatch it immediately or out them on ice, don't let them sit in a keep net or die on the bank as they taste like crap if you do that. Once dead fillet and skin then and cook like you would any other fish. The smell is in the skin so once that is gone they smell like any other fish. They have heaps of small bones which is their biggest problem when eating but they do taste good if done right. Check out an old KZfaq channel I ran fir my old fishing club, Aussie Carp Fishos, there is a video on there about cooking them and a few tips about catching them. Grab a size 6 suicide hook and some white bread or 2-3 kernels of corn, no weight if you can. Lay the rod flat held up by a couple sticks and leave the bail arm open. That's a very basic but effective way as they drop the bait when they feel resistance. Leaving them on the bank to die/rot only encourages other pests such as the wild pigs and cats as they love to eat them.
