20:58 haha, the classic boogie escaping without you knowing 🤣 Awesome video and trip bro, solid effort to you both. Love the raw honesty that comes from your videos Josh. Chur, keep them coming 👌 👍
I been following your channel since day one james I know the country quite well when it gets to hunting and fishing, but you make me feel like a neebie
Hi Josh u are a True bush man I was born in Australia, my Father, is a true Westcoaster, born and breed in Westport, I have family all along the west coast ,and it is an amazing country u have ,been there several times ,love your hard work Cheers mate ,my larst name is COLVIN AND DAD WAS A HUNTER AND MOUNTIAN CLIMBER
Churz bro lil tip for ya...carry a bic ballpoint pen with ya ..you can write notes but its what i used logging for years to fish wood chips out of my eyelingies ..use the rounded button on top of pen it wont scratch you eye.🤙churz and great vid
How's it josh. Is there a right and wrong place to get water from a creek. I once heard that the slowest part or pools are the best ,so the bugs can settle back down to the bottom and the fastest or Rapids would have them all stirred up ?? What you reckon. Churr
Hi josh Really in joyed the video!! As a farmer and a lover of the bush it is really disappointing to see the broom and gorse coming away in that beautiful country.Witch looks to be really established there, few more years you won’t see a thing once it closes right in.😔
Gorse specifically is the single most important plant for reforesting, bioremediating our fucked stripped eroded hillountry. Use the marginal stuff to provide innumerable ecological and thus economic benifits. Hard to farm steep stuff anyway. Need proof. Hugh Wilson banks peninsula.mas a farmer you know the importance of pollination. Best bee nutrition on the country. Fuck all quality pollen in most kiwi "weeds" some intelligent council's up north are recognising it, and protecting gorse blocks. Read a few books and get up to date on a top legume that'll grow places bugger all else can.
It's this type of ignorance that's perpetuated by cockies fathers and mothers everywhere, backed up by sales reps selling herbicides, and also the f.witts at our agg. Universities that claim there's only NPK and water and sun needed to farm. Disgraceful. Part of why we have the "third worst degraded soils in the developed world". -U.N. FAO. Not that un can be trusted much. After graduating one of said universities by a bees dick. After walking out on the professor who told me I wasn't allowed to ask (intelligent) questions. Fucking shameful. Regenerative agg is the only way forwards. The opposite of the negligent, cruel malpractice intensified farming that's developed in most of the flattish bit of NZ over the last 20 years.
From across the pond, we don’t have 1080 here in OZ so had to look into it seems like a silly idea so has it been noticeable for you lot in the bush, as is assume it’s mainly Citi folk talking it up ey?
What the hell are you talking about?! 1080 is used HEAVILY here in Aus. Not only does it wipe out native species, it's killed a bunch of my mate's hunting dogs as well.
chur for da free content my bro. Been hanging for a vid. Cant join the patron family because im enjoying a forced covid holiday in europe and gettin fuck all cash! so chur, that slice of home is awesome to see. Hope the bung eye is all good now bro.
Went 3 hours into mt Richmond forest park in the weekend and stayed in the hut... can count the amount of birds we saw on my hands... hut was right in the bush, no dawn chorus what so ever. Very disappointing : (
Don't be lazy 1080 the city slickers there are other ways to get rid of pests like rats and pozzys without destroying our native Bush and wildlife and not to mention hunters loyal dogs that it affects also ban 10 80
I was watching NZ predator free NZ on youtube and there the message is different. What do you think the answer is to eradicate rats, stoats etc? instead of 1080
You gotta be kidding me that people don't use that shin/calf meat!? Holy crap that's a delicacy. Either slow cook it or pressure cook it and it's all good. I'll make it for you some time if we ever go out. I reckon kiwis need cooking lessons eh, if they're throwing some of the best meat away. Same with their cheeks and stuff like that. It's the best part 😂
Josh, you have often (as in this video) criticised DOC's use of 1080, based on your experience. And yet DOC presumably has their own rationale for using 1080. How about making a video sometime where you get together with DOC people, and talk about this issue. I'd like to see DOC's side of this issue.
To understand DoC's stance you have to go way back to their inception. In 1987. Initially they were called The Dept of Conservation and Recreation. For all of about 2 weeks. That's when the ideologically driven bureaucrats went spare and had the Recreation bit dropped. Those types live in a fantasy land of Native or Nothing, conveniently forgetting when it suits them that they live in a very comfortable world BECAUSE of a whole bunch of non native stuff. Our forefathers were wise enough to import a variety of game animals to ensure EQUALITY for the common man. Something missing in the Old Land. Yes they stuffed up in a couple of areas. But I'll forgive them. If only the Bloody Govt would relent and allow valuable food types like rabbit and hare to be sold. Only stopped back in the 1950's cause of a ruckas kicked up by farming types wanting top $ for their permitted farmed animals.
Doc signed a 50 year contract with the supplier of 1080 for a specific weight per year They probably would never of signed it if they had actually tested it first They could spend the money on lawyers but it's not in their budget to do so So here we are, stuck with them using a poison that was untested when the supply contract was signed That's the real reason why they continue to ignore the damage the 1080 does I've meet several doc workers that are against it, but no matter how much they say it will never change
@@marklayland5424 Yes I agree, a very common sense approach. I like when they say 'New Conservative will replace the use of 1080 with efficient trapping, luring, and hunting where applicable.' Not just get rid of 1080 asap but create new jobs at the same time
@@shoutatthesky shit get ya head out of ya arse mate Cldnt find any vids of u hunting our beautiful country just wooden spoons probably made out of native trees are sure ur not John keys husband Haha like see what u catch with that spoon
1080 is used in high pest areas. Pests kill our birds. So it stands to reason that bird life is lower where 1080 is used, as these are the high pest areas.
drumonin I’ve been rafting the landsborough river for over 20 years and hunting the tops in the catchment . The bird life was flourishing up there until the aerial use of 1080 started. This in turn caused rat plagues - now there is very little birdlife remaining in this area. Yet DOC are claiming the catchment as one of their success stories. I have witnessed the decline of birdlife in this catchment and many others over the years that have Been treated with 1080. Yet in other areas that have never seen a lick of 1080 such as the majority of private land around kaikoura - the birdlife is astounding. I believe unless 1080 is applied yearly, the rats population bounces back more stronger than before (this is fact ) and the birdlife continues to decline.
@@joshjameskiwibushman I'm just still trying to understand what the DOC has to gain from this "conspiracy", why would they want all their hard work, to not work ? like what do governments have to gain from mandatory vaccinations .
@@tjdawson8942 1080 only works if it is used consecutive years in a row. It causes rat numbers to explode, if it is used sporadically, the rat numbers build to higher levels than pre 1080 and the birdlife dwindles. This is a proven fact. DOC have good intentions but the New Zealand Backcountry is too extensive to aerial poison every year. There in lies the problem
No one is a lover of 1080 - it's awful stuff! It's just the least bad option we have until a better solution is found. Love to hear what your overwhelming evidence is? All the evidence I've read is in favour of 1080. Otherwise, love your channel, cheers!
Josh, maybe you need to leave the ute behind and do some real hiking bro? Get out into the real wilderness and you'll see a different world. Hint: If you can drive there it ain't the real wilderness.
He’s done plenty of walking and the hard yards, from what I’ve seen in some other vids, especially ones of the West Coast trips. Plus I’ve seen him walk at altitude in China on his Discovery channel gigs. Hard work. Driving in, Choppering in: it’s just an efficiency and time-saver, mate. 🙏
All those birds singing in the background was the first thing I noticed buddy, sounded so awesome, bloody ripper hunt too.
i love hunting and your vids
