    Man oh man, there are no words to describe the sheer beauty of the place. What an absolute privilege. Scotty thank you so much for sharing this, it’s so cold & gloomy here in Sussex England, this brought us some warmth & joy. Cheers 🍻 buddy. Make the most of these summer days.

    Immediately recognised this spot from the first frame. Spent a lot of nights camping there. Best experience I had there was waking up on a freezing cold night to find a brumby bedding down next to my swag and campfire. Just sat and watched her snooze until sunrise. My favourite spot in all of Australia by far.

    Scotty, that's bloody beautiful, mate! Wow... and an added sensory element for me, a fire has started somewhere near me here, while im watching your video, and I can smell the bush, along with a soft smoke haze. Can't figure where it is, hoping it's not dangerous.
    Your skills, both bush and photography/cinematography are up there, Scotty. Thank you for your inspirations and passion.

  • @texasflyfisherman1377
    @texasflyfisherman1377 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    Don't know what access to fly gear you have, but if you can, I'd recommend a Rio 2 or 3 weight rod and whatever reel to make it a bit more of a fight and just much more enjoyable to cast all day especially to small trout.

    I really enjoy your content Scotty, it offers something different and unique.
    Can I offer a comment? Don’t be afraid of some negative comments around sponsorship. You’re going to get gripers no matter what you do - so you may as well make a bit of money.
    Do it unashamedly. Ignore and never respond to negative comments about your small income streams. They can go watch someone else if it bothers them so much.

    Hey scotty, just a tip in them deep plunge pools fish a beed head hares ear or pheasant tail nymph get it down to the bottom and fish the fast flowing water coming of the falls you will be surprised how many fish you will catch! Alot more than the dry royal wolf even tho dry fly ia the kost satisfaction its nice to change up in them areas and catch a few more fish!
