Awesome Tasman, Another great video, I gotta say that your exploits around the country in the dinghy are outstanding as is your diving and also your stamina climbing all over the place, in my opinion you are the top adventurer in New Zealand given how you do it on such a low budget.
That is seriously good content. Fun to keep the bloopers at the end. Shows how much effort goes into making the video work. Looking forward to the next episode.
How epic was that weather! Another great episode tasman. Theres only 5 degrees of separation in NZ when you have two legends bump into each other in the middle of nowhere.. look forward to next episode. Cheers
Amazing Adventure. It looks so cold and you're still walking around in your jandals and shorts, hats off :) It was also very funny seeing good old Josh James showing up, haha. Looking forward to the next part. Your trips are something else man, I really admire your courage to do this on your own.
Thanks mate! Hahaha, it wasn't even as cold as I was expecting 😂 it was so funny, what are the chances to catch him there on his first visit as well 😂. Glad you enjoyed the vid, really appreciate it!
That was sooo good Tasman! That drone footage was epic! I havent done alot of fishing and never tried my hand at spear fishing, so I particularly like your underwater footage. I cant wait for the next episode! 😁👍🏻
Thanks Sam! The drone is a bit of a struggle but it's a cool perspective 😁. Ah cool, glad you enjoyed it! Also I thoroughly recommend spearfishing if you get a chance to go! Cheers mate 😁
Just joined your channel and i'm very impressed with your representation of Fiordland as It is a special place. I first went in there in 1987 and spent every year after that for 33 years enjoying the sounds. Well done.
Oh my goodness this brought tears to my eyes. In 1975 and 76 I got the enormous privilege of spending months working with a close friend doing geology field work in Dusky. That last shot of your campsite on Mt Pender - well it leapt exactly out of my memory like it was yesterday - I remember cooking up a lunch one afternoon on that exact spot. Such a stunning view. Thank you so much for bringing this back to life. You have no idea how impressed I am with what you are doing!
Wow that's crazy, I'm delighted to hear I brought back some fond memories 😊. Sounds like you had an incredible time in the fiords :). Mt Pender was spectacular I'm so glad I went up to those tops. Thanks very much and cheers for watching!
@@NZWildAdventures A few years back I wrote some of it up at tramper nz in the forums . Thread number 10650. Or search on "Dark Cloud Range" Contains our route information.
Man that is stunning. That robin stamp was so cool! Voice-over for the dive was mint as. Seems like you've got that sorted.🎉 Hanging out for the rest of the vids of this trip.
Cheers! The stamp was amazing, never seen that before! Ah cool, I'm happy to hear it re the voice over 😊. I didn't even have the microphone so I'm glad my phone did a decent job of it 😆. Thanks mate!
Awesome part 1 of 4 episodes. Love the way you wear jandals in the snow and ice. Awesome to meet up with Josh in his backyard. Thanks for taking us on your adventure.
Tasman mate, your living the dream most of us wish we could have!, fiordland is an amazing place, i spent a week there back in the mid 80's (shit that makes me feel old!) at deep cove, brings back awesome memories, looking forward to your next installments, thanks greg
I'm definitely pretty lucky to be able to head out so often! Haha never too old to get out for a bit of fun 😆 deep cove is awesome, cool you spent some time out there! Thanks Greg 😁
A truly great small boat adventure at the southern end of the south island of New Zealand. Excellent quality video and views of the southern fjords. Diving, spear fishing and just fishing as well. Thanks Tasman what a start - a bit gnarly in Foveau and Pysugeur though. The weather gods are with you.
Cheers! I'm glad you enjoyed the videography 😁. I got so lucky with the weather! Though I was watching the weather for a good few weeks, passing up on a June opportunity since it was a little windy, pushing it to early July. Definitely a bit bumpy in places but I've had a lot worse 🤣. Thanks mate!
What an epic start to this adventure, stunning scenery, can’t believe the weather - it’s been so wet in the South today. How cool meeting Josh, look forward to the next one!
Another seriously impressive adventure Tasman. You’re made of something special! Loved this one and really looking forward to the rest of the series. Cheers, Thomas
Love this content you have a winning creative formula- not over done in the commentary where I find others like to hear their own voice. Sadly I watch your work on my phone with the odd word explanations small and quick to read but that could also mean I need glasses and am a slow reader. Nga mihi conquer the world showing our Aotearoa beauty👍🏽
Thanks so much! I'm pleased you enjoy the mix of video features 😁. I've been meaning to add a subtitle track to my new videos but it's just an extra bit of effort and time 😆. If I did my own subtitles I could make the text show for longer... cheers for the comment and thanks for watching!
Gidday mate fantastic weather for trip, filming is crystal clear to makes me wonder what makes you tick 😂 when you have the presence of mind to remember to pack tube of super glue for the trip 😊
Cheers mate! Weather for the whole trip was actually phenomenal, I got super lucky. Haha happy to hear it! Though when I'm chucking stuff in a pack at 2am the night before a trip it doesn't feel terribly prepared 🤣
Hello Tasman, wow what an amazing journey. I thoroughly enjoyed watching you fish, dive and the scenery is magic. Looking forward to more Thank you for sharing Cheers
Tasman, just a note of appreciation for the work you put into making these videos. You make it look effortless when it is certainly not. Thanks for all the fun.
@@NZWildAdventures what a great adventure, used to land on a beach in Preservation Inlet and fly crayfisher men in/out many years ago, beautiful place when the weather’s nice.
Great watch. I've seen most of your content. It's grea stuff. If you ever see a guy in a tee shirt, shorts and sandals stalking deer in the southern highlands, just know, that's serious! The mincer just cracks me up. Go hard Tasman.
Another fantastic effort Tasman. The quality of your productions just keeps getting better. Thanks for the immense effort you put into your productions. All the best and take care.
Came across your trips by accident was looking for dive spots around christchurch I just moved here from Hamilton and came across big guy Jamie's vids and you both went for a few dives around akaroa then afew of your vidz came up I started watching them honestly you are living the dream much respect for your love of the outdoors so inspiring and now I know a couple of dive spots thanks tasman your the man bro
Tasman, you have a lovely style and fill your vids with great footage and plenty of interesting encounters with wildlife. Top drawer!! (And I learn stuff every time I watch your work . . . thankyou!)
Inspirational mate, id love to do a mission like that one day! looking forward to seeing the rest of your trip. Looks like a bit of a paradise down there, and plenty of kai to keep you going

Some great footage, what an epic vid can't wait for part 2
Great footage. I look forward to the next episode.
@NZWildAdventures did you leave from Cosy Nook near Orepuki?
Mate, the biggest compliment I can pay you is this:
You don't talk the talk,
You walk the walk. Truly.
Such a great vid.
Take care and God bless,
Dave
Really appreciate it mate 😊 thanks Dave

Thanks so much! Hahaha glad you enjoy the bloopers, I love editing them in too haha 😂. Cheers!
