    That camp set up was pretty good, mate. Awesome looking fly over the whole tent, not that you needed it this time but as we know in NZ, the weather can come at any time in those high country areas. Beautiful river. And fantastic to see those blue ducks (for our international viewers, a rare native duck in NZ).

    • @TrippinOnTrout
      @TrippinOnTrout  Před 5 lety

      Yeah I do like having the fly - just gives you dry space when it pisses down. Also helps reduce condensation in/on your tent too I have found. They are pretty cheap.
      Would love a lighter tent too but they are a bit pricey!!

    Dude! 20 minutes in, and I'd say you CRUSHED it! One ad for how to trade Pot Stocks. One ad for Cold Weather Camping, and one ad for how to get better sleep with the Purple mattress! What you lacked in trout, I'd say you more than made up for in ad revenue (maybe), with this 30 program.
    As always, I am thoroughly enjoying!

    Alex thanks for posting man! Excellent as always. I live in Colorado in the US and we fish in temperatures below 30 degrees where the guides on the rod freeze.
    It’s well worth it because of the big fishing moving out of the lakes and into the river.
    What a fantastic fish at the end of the video! It’s such a feeling to end a trip on a fish like that

    There's an old saying Alex that 90% of the fish are caught by 10% of the fishermen.Those guys that are prepared to put in the hard yards, hump the packs, and do the kms in adverse conditions and push the boundaries in their quest for piscatorial gold. well done old bean :-)

    Alex, Great job dude. What a mission. Was a bit worried for u, with those ice rocks along the bank. But as usual, your fish were just incredible bro. Really good job on filming too. Hope you brought a GPS, in case you slip on the ice. Worry about seeing u get outta there. Great job!

    Once again an epic vid mate. Ive got to try those caramel lattes next trip. Your one hard nut dude. That looked cold. Have you ever tried sleeping in the hammock in winter. Check out Sierra madre nube shelter with under blanket for winter. I use a hammock now all the time. It suits setting up real fast last thing at night and the take down is rapid.

      @TrippinOnTrout  Před 5 lety

      Cheers Wes, give the. caramel a shot dude, you will love it.

      does that under blanket do the job warm in winter?
