Bro as soon as you opened a beer on the beach , I hadto pop one open an finished watching the vid. Been watching your journey for a few years now bro mean mahi out there. As a kiwi who’s been living in aus for the past few years, it’s hard to beat our homeland. The land and the sea providing quality at its highest. My misz is always watching makeup & girlflix on TH-cam . While I’m out here reminiscing on Ollie Craig and other dive brothers in our homeland. Stay safe and stay blessed brother 🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿
Hey Jayden, Cheers for the feedback bro. Sure is an incredible piece of turf we have here! very grateful to be able to explore the places where I do, and to share it with guys like you to reminisce over is a cool feeling as I have lived over seas for a few years at a time and know the feeling! Back at you bro. Cheers, Ollie
Haha yeah can't rock down Sydney habour and do this 🤣 the freedom NZ has is second to none and it's not till your stuck out west Sydney looking at Parramatta River thinking fuk I should of done more while I lived in NZ awesome vlogs bro keep it up
Just started watching Ollie few weeks ago and will finish current playlists until done. Any other Aussie folks should watch? Completed B2B. Good luck Ollie. I am jealous. Not that I could take up this sport at my age. So beautiful footage! Best of luck “Mate” from the USA.
And surely there is an outboard motor company that would provide you with a new motor!
Great video mate. The best things in life are free! Like listening to the ocean and staring at a fire. I grew up in NZ and love the outdoors. I live in the UK now, so I don't get to dive for crays at the moment! But thanks for sharing your awesome adventures.
Cheers mate. Totally agree simple things always the best
Good to see someone's living my dream 🤙
Haha not all fun and games bro but yeah, try to!
Inspirational! I like your style. You’re good at what you do - tasteful, considerate and humble. Keep it up!
Thank You Alexey!
Very good Ollie. These long videos are perfect for leisurely watching. Thank you and congratulations, good job 🧜🏼♂️🎥🤙🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Glad you like them! Thanks mate
Hay Ollie
The vid gets to 1.30 and freezers on me anyone else having problems.real keen to watch it,you have wicked content 👍
Same
Same
Hey guys working on it. Something gone wrong on TH-cam end. Hopefully fixed soon
Like where else in the world would you really want to be. Got to love gentleman's camping.
Yeah mate got to have a little bit of comfort!
What, just one dive and crays, no way. I almost drowned myself trying to locate a cray the other day over here, up and down for well over an hour. Lucky you!!
Get lucky diving sometimes!! Definitely had my days where I have seerched everywhere and came up with nothing!
The life. Mean video. That's definitely on my bucket list. To get away from society and dive,camp and have a couple cold ones then chill.
Get stuck in mate nothing better
it's awesome seeing this 2 year old video now in 2024 and then seeing your 2024 side by side. Rocking up with a full sized weber and a big massive camping chair, its so funny, love it. Intreresting to see how you changed your style to be more minimalistic in some regard. I couldn't believe you squeezing out an actually espresso there, but in your more recent videos just powdered instant coffee (which most coffee lovers would scoff at). But then, its all about figuring out your own priorities. Super interesting to watch the changes.
Roughing it there Ollie mate 🤣 I'm with you , scallops over anything 👍
Watched the video in between two large blocks of meetings during lunch break. Great to ease my mind. Cheers!
Awesome! Glad you enjoyed it Andre!
You’ve got the bug .That’s where it’s at ! Good on ya living life like a king ! Keep up the great work . 👍
Cheers Ian!! Will do mate
Dig the Cap "Primal Pursuit" sweet name. Living and loving the life bro.
Thanks Bro. Try to mate as usual
Great adventure again Ollie. Looking forward to grabbing a cap when they come out!
Cheers mate!!!
Cool as!! Not the worst outdoor activity to do in NZ!!one of your coolest content! Raw and inspiring! Ppl just wanna go outdoors with this video! Congrats to your new brand!! Cheers Ollie!!
Thanks mate!! Yeah hard to beat camping on the beach
Ahhh the mighty Manukau I know it intimately, good old Cornwallis hardly ever failed me, camped at Cake Isl beach many a night too...
Bbq on the dinghy hahaha too good
It can be done haha
The BBQ... next the kitchen sink.. I love it!
Haha good idea 😂
Being watching for a while now, and was so surprised to see you launch Next to our family batch, never thought there would be crays around. Will have to go have a look! Thanks for the great video!
Bro…..this is mean! This is what it’s all about!! From the sea to the stomach!! The best one yet!! Awesome Brother!! 💪🏾👍🏾
Cheers Junior!
Such good content bro 👌. I grew up in West Auckland but now live in Western Australia and I'm always doing dive missions on my inflatable boat with my speargun it's such a good buzz and west Aus has so much to offer but I can't wait to come back to NZ and experience that again.
Yeah bro it’s a cool way to explore. Hopefully can go dive west sis one day too!
I grew up in Swanson bro
Now living in wa too 👍
@@tonezwestauckzsinceagesago2436 true that, I lived in Ranui before moving to Perth. It's so good in WA 🤙
Nice gentlemans coffee sir. 😆 🤣
You can even get the nespresso capsule one as well.. tastes just as good as fancy machine
video keeps freezing at 2.30 bro! help needed. keep up the awesome wk ollie - living the dream brother.
Working on it bro seems to be a tech issue TH-cam side
Omg that coffee contraption
Awesome! Good day! Good luck! 👋
We need more & more & more vids like this solo caming keep up 👍👍👍
Ok! Will get out again soon
Pheasants make better alarm clocks than roosters. More consistent and, IMO, a better ringtone.
Haha anything better than the Peacocks I have living next to me!!
left hand, pinky off..... good man!
Love the vids bro! Don't have any fish to eat while watching your video this time, but still a wonderful watch!
Haha bugger, Cheers mate, appreciate it
Scallops are my favorite shell fish and those look good.
That’s what you call living 🤙
Yeah simple is the way!
Dope meaning behind your brand name brother🤜🏾🤛🏾⚡️ will be supporting you on my end for sure
Hey bro cheers fro that. Hopefully get live soon!
I used to use a small waste mounted 250x250 catch bag which had elastic entrance. Nice and streamline for freediving.Tied a 20mm off cut of 100mm conduit for measuring. Easy as to measure on breathhold as if pass threw can just let go of it. Best shell i got from that harbour on the north side was 165mm.. Always were nice and fat thier. Ironicaly bigest shell wasnt bigest meat. I would hit first and last day of season as a tradition for years. Dont freedive anymore after long time doing it every week. Got bored and lost interest. Speared a 21.6lb snapz and felt liked a pinnacle and after that was now what. Enjoy watching you full of energy on cool missions. Makes me feel old haha
Hey mate, Shit that's a big scallop for there! Definitely bigger and more healthier Scallops on that side for some reason, obviously food and currents helping out perhaps. Yes, it's not the most exiting diving scallops, I only bother if nice and shallow like this spot. Just need to look for bigger things to keep that interest!! maybe a marlin next?? haha. Nah, always an interesting time diving and the exercise sure beats a treadmill.
I do have a waist bag which is awesome! I left it at home next to the boat by accident. Using it most dives now!
You live a life that i always wanted, keep it going my friend enjoy your life.
Thank you mate! That's the plan!
I love scallops. I my part of the world, giant sea scallops are $29.99 per pound. Which I could dive for them.🐟
Mean video as always bro, out there doing it🙌 Couldnt help but notice the handsfree equalizing on the last scallop drops, any tips on making progress with it? I can't seem to get a strong enough push without holding my nose, extra hands in the water would be a handy thing to have, even on descent
Cheers bro appreciate it. Hey mate, I'm not an expert in that area, but just practice at home even with hand on nose. maybe doa minute or so each day it will help strengthen up those muscles in your ear canal. Look up Valsalva & Frenzel. They are the two techniques used for equalizing one might work better than other for you.
Mate thats a hell of a trip. I used to do these trips to portjackson. That beer pop would have been satisfaction. Im grounded with kids for the next few years so have to live through you haha
Awesome place that. Haha I better get filming again then
Awesome vid bud ,luv the coffee thingy bloody cool beaut spot
Thanks Leroy, sure is
Beautiful my bro love your vids. Love how you live too just how it should be in our country. Best country in the world. Chur
Hanks bro appreciate it. Yeah try to make the most of it!
Cool video Ollie. Definitely be ordering some of you Primal Pursuit gear! Cheers bro 👌

Keep on loving your life Ollie and keep the awesome content coming,and a merry Xmas and happy new year too you mate👍🏼
Awesome video brother :) thanks for sharing your awesome missions :)
Thanks Rowan
Nice one Ollie wish we could get scallops here in nelson/okiwi bay but we have had a ban for about 5 or 6 years now so my dredge just sits in the corner of garage in the mean time ,but good on you mate ,cheers shaneo , nelson 😊🍺
Bugger, I imagine we will see more and more bans on seafood as numbers decline unless they have a major shakeup with the commercial side/ and councils actually do their job and monitor sediment run off from big subdivisions/ developments and pollution in general. Nz is in a much worse state than people realise. We can definitely turn stuff around just need a better plan
awsome video ollie🤣
Cheers LEon
absolute awesome video would love to do this sometime.
Nice one bro, lucky you didn’t get caught in heavy rain. Scallops for Christmas please 🙏✨✨
Will see what I can do!
Love the content definitely blessed thats for sure..
beauty another awesome video , living the dream brother
Cheers Ivan!
Bro awesome video..I live up north and this just wants me to go out and do this more.... 😎👍..nice one
I did some research and it seems the concern around burning driftwood is the release of dioxins, I also saw that burning *any* wood releases them. Seems its a bit higher with driftwood because of the salt content, but heck Im not about to stop making fires with it. There is a point where you have to wonder how bad this can be if generations before us who didnt have this knowledge were ok after doing this a lot more regularly than us.
Yes, It's the dioxins. And Agree, it seems everything is toxic these days, so cooking over some driftwood once in a while isn't going to be the end of the world.
Living the dream, good work mate
Nice, we go kayak camping here, I got a tandem with outriggers and a sail, it is nice at night with nobody for miles. I just checked out the Kai Down Under channel, hes in Bluff down south. You guys should get together, he seems like a cool dude too! I wish I had an aluminum boat, so jealous of those guys!
Sweet mate sounds good!
Dont get much better than that scollops & crayfish
Yep! Pretty good combo 👌
The barbecue was brilliant mate!
Did the job!
Kiwis blokes and there IRB, talk about pushing it. I hope you have a good UHF portable radio, stick it in a bag and hopefully you never need it.
Yep, Got myself sorted! Hopefully not Richard!
Epic trip bro!! You’ve got me keen for an overnight trip now
Good shit do it!

Great video man - that boat was well loaded aye. Sensual scenes on the beach bay bro. Good to see the brand launch is on 👌🏽
Cheers Michael! Haha yeah good load for the old ducky. Thanks mate 🤙
Sponsored up. Must be due a Coro or Whangarei Heads trip Mike. Scallops off the beach here so no excuses.
@@johnantonyhunt your sons been in touch re the mandel excursion think we headed that way early Jan. you be around to share the hot tub with post dive?
@@chaseandgather lets make it happen.
Love your videos!
Good on you for launching some merch bro. We'd love to support. Question, can you camp like that along any part of the coast? Or should you stick to a harbour? Cheers mate.
Thanks bro. If unsure, you can always check with council/ doc in the case what I did. Cheers
The fire would've sorted the cook roughing it with a bbq🤣
Hi Ollie. Great video. That's a nice camping spot. We picnic there periodically. Must try to find some trays. I have a few 2m scallop spots. Unfortunately your video is hanging at 1:27 across all my devices. You may want to -re-upload. It was fine last night.
Cheers Mark yeah I’m working on it not sure what’s happening. If can’t solve by tomorrow will re upload !!
Nice vlog sir nice pieceful place
Watch out for the white pointers mate.
I recognize that beach where you launched from, spent a lot of my youth there.
Yep so did I! Out there most weekends as a young fella
@@olliecraig-primalpursuit my grandparents and their friends started the gated beach next too that beach in the late 1970's. Was all caravans then, now all chalets. My parents and grandparents sold their plots in the late 80's.
@@clintadams8451 yeah right, pretty neat spot out there man
This was so fun to watch :)
Great to hear
Great video Ollie
Thanks bro
Great video bro. Keen to do more of this myself
Ollie brought the whole kitchen camping, 🤣. Can't blame you, man. I like confort too. Hey, do me a favor, though. Please stop using those metal tongs on that non-stick pan, bro. Teflon is insanely poisonous, and you're scraping particles right into your food. Much love, keep up the great videos. 👍
Noted!
Mean video bro love it!
Looks like I'm getting a new cap.
Sweet mate! Appreciate any support! stay tuned for the drop!
Nice work !!.
Thank you! Cheers!
Awesome bro that’s what life is all about 👍
Cheers Neale, sure is
Hey Ollie, Great video once again.
Thanks for writing back last video on which dive watch you use, I purchased the suunto d4f after that and its great.
Question, I dont use social media eg: facebook or instagram, How do I get on to these hats?
Cheers
Hey Harley. Keep an eye on My TH-cam (I will do a post on there once launched also). Perhaps turn on notification bell or something? Glad you are enjoying the watch, it's a great quality & simple unit. Otherwise is you want some gear asap, eg before xmas flick me your email and I can get you sorted!
Finally got Chance to watch it, TH-cam is finally working. Wanted to ask, why aren't you using your ruku blades anymore? Did you get sponsored by seabuck?
Mainly wanted to know how you felt about the rukus, I wanna get some myself. Currently using plastic cressi modular fins, they do the job, but not as good as fibreglass.
Rukus are great mate. Just trying out some carbons instead of fibreglass. Can’t have the same gear forever need to try new things
