  • AND barramundi smoked on the fire. What a ripper day, waking up in the trees, Damper cooked in the ground, amazing fishing in a remote CAPE YORK RIVER and a catch and cook with Barramundi on the camp fire. This is what its all about, this day right here is why I do it. I hope you all enjoy it.

      Agree- being retired I search and look for content of this nature, there are a lot of irresponsible people out there who post what I consider in appropriate and not we should be trying to show others. In Wild Reaches there is a mixture of adventure, responsible care and working with the indigenous communities to ensure an understanding of land and cultures. It also helps that Nate is from the Noosa Hinterland where we have here a diverse geographical location that blends in with what he promotes.

    Jordo- many thanks for letting us all enjoy your wonderful part of the Cape York wilderness with Nate. It is interesting though that there is an old camp where your fishing, there a few others that have been abandoned over time. We have not seen too many Crocs in the your current location, anyway keep on keeping on guys, stay safe and remember to give the tinnie a was you will be 20kgs lighter 😁

    • @WildReaches
      @WildReaches  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey Brad, spending so much time up on the Cape iv found so many camps like this. I think being so remote pro crabbers and fishermen have built them over the years and there’s just no one out there to dispute it.
      Yep good idea with the mud, it was very bow heavy when it first hit the water 😂

We have suffered the same problem of the hammock coming down, in our previous episode during winter here, our hammock was attached to the banister and brought the flaming lot down, so we know how Jordon fell😯. We didn't sleep well last night and we were thinking of crocs, well that's what we have put it down to!!!😉. Working on a fish finder for my inflatable now, nearly cracked it will keep you posted!
