I've almost cracked the 100K!! I just need a few more of you legends to hit that subscribe button. So if you enjoyed this video, please consider subscribing. And if you'd like to help support the channel, please feel free to check out my Patreon. www.patreon.com/scottysgonewalkabouts Cheers, guys. Hooroo 🤙
Ill sort out the extra few K you need tonight
Hello,. Sir, can we cooperate? We hope to operate your video content on video sites in China.
I get this overwhelming feeling of peace when I watch your videos.Thank you
Nice one Scotty! Found your channel during lockdown and it inspired me to get out and do the same! You’ll fly past 100k! And you’ve earned every one of them 👍
Reply to one of my comments one day and ill subscribe matey-o
When you cast mend the line by lifting the line and pointing the rod tip upstream this will take the bow out of the line ,that way when striking at a take you don't have a lot of slack line to take up learning this tip will get you into contact with fish faster and lesser missed takes. Keep up the excellent videos Scotty very enjoyable.
What Tony said 👆
So cute the way you burn everything. Hahaha.
Good one Scotty, your pancakes looked delish and watching your content is so relaxing. Thanks & cheers Marg.
One of the many armchair professionals here. Firstly what a great adventure. Beautiful country. So my tips for ya
1. Strip the fly line so it's always taut in the water ready for you to hook up to that pretty rainbow or brown and avoid the incident at approx 13.40 minute mark.
2. There is no need to scale a trout unless you really want to. just fry that thing up or better yet, get a smoker.
3. Wet your hand first when handling trout. It will help them remain protected from parasites and disease.
I don't think any other fish has bought more pleasure to fishermen than trout. How good are they.
Are trout good eating or is it more of just a sport?
@@RyanYoxo always depends on your taste. I like them. I'll take one and throw the rest back. I also fly-fish because it's amazing, it takes me to beautiful places and the fly, rod and casting is art in my opinion.
There are some schools of thought on trout. They are introduced and eat the local galaxia and other aquatic native animals in Australia so some have no hesitation about taking them. Others argue that it's cruel just like normal fishing. I also use barbless hooks to try to do the least amount of harm to the fish.
Go grab some and see if you like it.
C Thorno cheers! I’ll have to try it, was always keen to fish but only if I’m going to cook it up. I moved out to the Victorian high country last year and wouldn’t mind learning to fly fish
Lets be honest, trout are only here to entertain a very small percentage of the population, and do enormous harm to the local fish. Its a pity trout are not tastier.
Envy and jealousy have just set in. I've never backpacked before but you are in a really tranquil time of your life. As a self taught Flyfisher, I've caught many Trout in my life but at the age of 67, my legs are not up to the hard slog any more. I sensed the exhilaration that you did, when catching and landing a trout and eating it was the crescendo. Yum Yum.I get great pleasure in watching your vids as it takes me back to the feeling I used to get when you are surrounded by nothing but the wilds of our great country.You don't have to be a professional fly fisher person, just put the right fly in the right place and you're on the money.Keep up your inspiring adventures. I'll continue to watch.
Mate, when your Akubra hat gets a hole in it, keep it a is, it's part of its story, as long a sit still keeps the sun off your face, consider it good, lol. Gives it charm and character. Cheers mate. Love the vid. Congrats on the first catch and cook.
Beautiful to see the acknowledgement to country ❤️💛🖤
I never scale trout. I leave the head and tail on as well. I don't personally eat the skin but I think some do. When you are eating it you should be able to pull the spine etc out easily, it one piece like Tom and Jerry. I'm loving your videos. I'm a pensioner in Northern England and the weather is grey here. Thanks.
these videos are done so well and bring much needed calm to such uncertain times ❤🇿🇦
I also love how gentle you are with the fish, I'm abit of a softy so it always makes me feel better lol
For the trout scales it’s just really personal preference, you can cook it with or without it.
yep correct, and if all else fails you can cook them skin on and just peel it off once cooked....I scale mine when they start to get up there in size. Sizes that you cant fit em in a pan whole.
Nice vids man.
I do scales on, but I rub them down with some milk first, it cleans them up nicely.
@@ArbyCreations milk?
great video Scotty,enjoying enjoying our beautiful country beautiful country.
A trout catch and cook! I remember when you just started fishing in your videos. The trout looked fantastic and so did that breakfast!! Your music choices and how you incorporate it into your film is spot on as always. A real gold standard in this outdoor camping space 🙌👏. ATB best Scotty, you deserve that 100K!
Ok, I've seen enough and now I can't contain myself. The floatant you use on your drys - when you apply it directly to the fly, it will absolutely saturate the fibres on your fly and weigh it down unnecessarily.
Try this . . . apply a tiny amount to your thumb and/or forefinger first and then rub them together (warms it up and thins it out), using thumb and forefinger apply it meticulously to the fur and feathers - not too much, apply it sparingly. Your dry flies will float for longer.
I always enjoy your work and good to see you get amongst them for a change. Cheers.
Thank you for a great video, You never get rid of your hat ever, the older and more beat up they get the more the character and memory's some of my back country hats are 40 years old and beat to death. from BC Western Canada
Keep runnin the hat scotty, their prime years are when their aged and weathered 👌🤠
And it takes to long to run in the new one😅😆 Great spot mate! Always a treat to return home and see where you've been 👍
Another awesome vid. I know the rain annoying as I work outdoors but no bush fires no fire bands clean air plenty of water in rivers and dams.
sleeping on the blacktop, heck yes man. colter is great. trying to find some nice grassy riverside camp spots without the crowds down south here in Vic, but they're few and far between atm I'm afraid.
What a beautiful place to have a fish Scotty to bad about the rain but the best part is just being out there enjoying our beautiful Country
Love to see our own backyard mate, seriously everyone should get the privilege to watch your videos, give a lot of serotonin
Love your work Scotty - Very chill and nicely put together.
Hi Scott! Thanks for all the great videos! The nature there is fantastic and versatile! I always get happy when it "pings" in my PC, now Scott has released a new video! Greetings from an old pensioner, who lives on an islet out in the archipelago in southern Finland. The snow and sea ice are melting, the seabirds have arrived and fishing begins ... Wish you all the best! 😀👍
After all the wildfires that devastated huge areas I'm sure the land is quite ready for a good soaking rain to bring life back to the bush. It's good to see things are right again. Well done Mate!!
Yer how exciting your first trout feed fresh as!!yew❤
yummo...love your cooking stuff.. nice light camp chair, collapsable table, salt and pepper and hook in ;))
Well edited videos. As others have said, the music, scenery and bushcraft meld into a great relaxed show. Thank you. 😁👍🏻🇦🇺
Wear on a hat is what gives it character even patching it will give character. I always enjoy your videos. Thanks Scotty.
Love your videos but man your cooking segments are hilarious pancakes didn’t fail to amuse 😂🤙🏼
Keep skin on, slit the skin a few times to allow flavours in. I usually spread the butter onto the skin and in the slits as well as lemon, chill garlic in the guts of the fish, bloody beauty
The truly best pancakes for me are almost the same as this but instead of nutella and fruit, you put butter and cheddar cheese on it, so delicious! The other mix is butter, cheddar cheese and honey, but eat it while it's hot... bliss!
Tarp camping in full swing La-Nina. You're a braver man than most.
Naahh ... he's just a typical Aussie bloke. God's own country Scotty great camp good fishing. Happy Easter mate to you and your family. Bushyboy Oz.
Tarp camping in Australia is suicide... You'll either be bitten by venomous insects or a snake, or drenched when it rains...
@@Funkteonrighto
Those days are gone here in the California Sierra's our fish are all plants you will occasionally hook an old breeder they have planted but as to natives all gone now I do remember my grand dad and dad and uncle Art talking one night after dinner Art had just hailed in what they believe was the last large native brown in the lake I believe that was in 1956 I might be of a year or 2 but at 79 the old noggin just does not work like it used to . Good like to you and stay safe which in it's self is a full time job in the woods . Happy trails
Back in the early 200o's used to trout fish out the back of Lithgow. Still remember my first inland licensed catch and cook.
Congratulations on your first aussie trout.
I don’t scale them that size, when you fry it up the scales actually crisp up nicely and give the trout a nice crunch.
You’re missing out by not frying the tail, when it’s super crispy it’s pretty tasty and crispy
Your country has a lot of beautiful places
If your struggling for takes put a nymph on as the point fly and a wet fly about 2x feet above on a little tag line, look up how to nymph the rapids you will catch so many more fish, I do agree dry fly fishing is the most fun and I only nymph when the drys just aren't working.
Great channel! Australia being known for poisonous critters I'm impressed by your sleeping setup. Youre a braver soul than myself, haha! Much respect!
Put away that titanium pan and get yourself a Jetboil Skillet - It's completely non-stick and has a folding handle just like your titanium pan. Mine does pancakes from those 'just add water' mixes like an absolute dream.
have all your videos mate....... Keep it comming. Thanks
You have to get some of those small GearAid patches in your kit, they are an absolute lifesaver. No more sleepless nights from leaky sleeping pads, or torn down jackets, or holes in your outer rainshell, and more. They really are worth having.
I knew that one day you and the fly rod would become very close buddies. Well done Scotty, keep up the good work.
... Great video ... My style of simple outing ... Pack in ,, enjoy the bit of nature ,, set up simple camp a relax a bit ... scout the river or lake ,, fish any new fly's made up then pull out old favorites ... You found a great spot with awesome brown trout .... being solo it only takes one for a meal ,,the rest are just for the test of skills and to give the fish a little exercise ....
..... Trout have small scales ,no need to put in the work to remove them ,,,, while frying them the skin will come off anyway ...After frying ,, put your fork behind the backbone and pull the skeletal bones out forward ,, will remove all the bones at once .... pink meat of brown trout are the Best ... carry along a small shaker of lemon pepper for seasoning to enhance flavor ... maybe coat with corn meal for a little crust ... Man all this thought is making me hungry and longing for the high country .... and favorite spots near me are still iced over .... I have to trek and camp with you .... Stay Safe ....
Another great video Scotty. Thank you for sharing your country with s.
Can confirm, that’s exactly what it’s like camping in England.
Sometimes use a H.T. poncho/3mm closed cell foam mat/ /waterproof mat/thermarest to sit on damp ground.
Thought you were going to finally get a dry trip...but you got to prove your wet weather experience one more time! Remember, there is no bad weather, only bad gear decisions. Rooting on you getting 100K. Keep living your Dash!!! - Davey.
Spectacular location mate. 🙏
Nicely done with your first trout cook up and what a bloody breaky of champions 😂
Really enjoyed watching this video mate. Keep the camera rolling 👍🏼👍🏼
Nice Guy.Well presented with no shouting like some fishing utube uploads.
Mate, an Akubra is for life, like the baggy green lol.
Most people don't scale trout and the crispy skin adds a lot to the dining.
Great fresh episode man! Congratulations on the trout catch. Stunning twilight too.
Making the most of it with those pancakes bloody hell that what im talking about , thanks for bringing us along
Scotty, the crazy creek is the best chair IMO. It is both a chair and a ground mat (I use it to protect the underside of my pad when I’m concerned about it popping) and has no assembly required. Super lightweight highly recommend
No need to scale. When the fish is done peal the meat from the backbone down, it leave the rib cage behind. Very tasty fish.
Cheers and enjoy
I must say, you have become very decent at fly casting! If you miss a dry fly take like before the cooking session, just cast the fly two meters upstream of the missed rise again immediately. Sometimes you get lucky. Small trout like that, you don't to scale at all. Cheers!
Edit: Also when casting over a current upstream like at 29:56 give your line an upstream mend right away. This helps keep your line parallel to your fly and reduces drag.
Trout only needs gutting, then cook your desired method. No scaling, not needed. Great video and fantastic trout stream.
First cast trout!!! You beauty! Your fishing skills have come a way since your first videos. Love you work, love leaving Syd from my couch. Thanks Scotty.
Hi Scotty , have been watching you for a while now. You have awed me with your filming and content . You certainly have good artistic and story skills. Cooking and fishing skills will come with more time. If you want a you tube buddy , or inspiration , I would have a look at Jonna Jinton. Awe inspiring filming. Anyway, keep filming, and love the content.
Never scale trout mate , also if hanging to cure before dinner hang it about 1-2 ft above running water , tie a few strips of rags dangling around it into the cool water , the capillary action and a cool breeze will help keep the meat fresh and yummy . Good luck
Cooking tip: So a helpful tip when cooking any item, if you add oil to a cold pan, then heat the pan, the item has a very high chance of sticking.
However, if you heat up the pan fairly well first, THEN add your room temperature-ish oil, then swirl the oil round the pan a bit and let the oil come up to temp for a moment, your pan will now be non stick. This works especially well with cast iron, but works with all metals.
Ok great. Thanks for the tip!
@@ScottysGoneWalkabout np :D But I should add that if you heat the pan way too hot, depending on the oil, it possibly won't work as you will surpass what the oil can handle temperature wise.
@@ScottysGoneWalkabout Hey Scotty, nice video, first time watching! Two things about the cooking, make sure the trout is as dry to touch as you can get it, and Wombat is right on, your oil should be hot, but not flaming. The other, is to add your garlic toward the end, it just needs a couple of minutes. Cheers from Canada!
I can't fly fish, but the pancakes might need less oil and less heat.
The trip looked fun and only a bit of drizzle, so that was nice.
another fantastic vid Scotty! Always enjoy watching your adventures, see you in the next one!
Blackberries! It’s a little funny seeing them as they appear in our autumn time, September, October time. We make a nice crumble pie with them. Dash of custard, delicious 😋. Of course the seasons are reversed in this part of the world. It’s extraordinary how varied the landscape is there, looks typically English landscape with a few differences, trees & bird life, looking & sounding different. Even the weather is what your’d expect here! Fantastic video Scotty, here’s to cracking the 100k anytime now! All the best Andy
Another great video Scotty what a pleasure watching you enjoying our beautiful country. Please keep up the great work and wonderful videos everyone here is enjoying your creations...thanks Tal
Nice one Scotty! What a wonderful camp and fish😎👏👌 Quality cinematography too! Any chat re your tattoos dude. Yours (like mine) are always an interesting story😉 KTF bro🙏
Beautiful as always scotty...... Keep on keeping on.... Lee South Africa tell us about your tattoos
Great video, worth watching as always. From Belarusian tourists with greetings.
I learned of your channel through my father, who's a big fan of your btw. I like what I see and I think it's great that you're openly honest about not knowing everything, nor pretending to be an expert. Anyway, keep up the great work and I just subbed to your channel as well. Cheers and hello from Canada!
Common Scotty, next time I expect you to carry out a little esky so you can put some ice cream on your morning pancakes!
I have never bothered with scaling trout… Thanks for another awesome video!! 🌀💚🌀
Is that a black panther across the river @19:47 ? Beautiful spot 🏞️🍇 Thank You ! 🐈🌳👍
Great vid vey relaxin, like ya eatin the odd one, think eatin a fish near the river bro makes ya remember were we from.
Fly fishing is excellence within itself. Yellow trout gives it a nice feeling.
All this in Assue environment.
Beautiful, Thankyou for sharing your experience!
I ordered a sample pack as I love all biltong and jerky! Hopefully doesn’t disappoint,
Thankyou Scotty for your wealth of information and attention to detail ❤️
wonderful....we fill the belly of the trouts with onions and parsley...stay healthy man!!!
Watch a few firebox stoves vids. Steve’s the trout guru. Lars moss vegas
Loved the video Scotty. It was great to see you catch fish. Nice dinner and breakfast. Liked the fish jumping out of the net. Your videos are some of the best on the Internet. Most people don't know how to make them. Can't wait to see your next one.
Skinning fish is simpler, easier and less intensive than scaling
Awesome job catching and cooking the trout mate. Thanks so much for sharing you’re fantastic video’s.
Love all your videos. Watch a video on how to mend your fly line when you fish. Sometimes the fly line will get ahead of the fly and drag it, that can turn a fish off. I remember the fist video you tried a fly rod, you have gotten really good
Really fast.
Love your work mate.
I liked the stream running thru your camping spot. I could almost taste the trout and those pancakes. Lovely scenic hills. Enjoyed the video. Take care. HooRoo!
Each time I watch one of your Vids - I like the Channel more.
Nice one Scotty! The fly fishing is paying dividends Mate. Trout looked delicious and the irregularly shaped pancakes too! 😂🤣
I remember the days when you couldn't catch a fish.. lol
BTW helinox are great
Thanks for taking us along on your adventure. Beautiful country you live in. Stay safe my friend
Another great vid Scott!👌
Watching your clips mate are so relaxing. I just want to get out and do it my self just waiting for the session to open . Keep up the great work .
Another wonderful picturesque adventure Scotty - and loved the soft background music as well 😊 thanks
Great video, the landscape is awesome. The river is perfect for a packraft adventure 😉
Thanks for sharing.
Lg Momo
Good to see your progression and confidence in fishing now mate. Beauty!
What a pleasure to watch you enjoy those beautiful landscapes and you certainly know how to cook up sone delucious food. I was expecting you to fall over in a funk when you were eating your pancakes :)
Arrh Scotty, such a smile on the dial watching you enjoy your first wild catch, dripping with butter, chilled, smoke rising gently from the fire. Sweet 👍
Beautiful spot. Glad you got a spot of Sun. Cheers from Toowoomba Qld. 🐞🇦🇺
Always enjoy waking up to seeing you post a new adventure
Titiqaqa is a large, deep, freshwater lake in the Andes on the border of Bolivia and Peru. Thanks for another great adventure, The trout looked very appetising. TIP: quite often fish will come on the bite just prior to a change in the weather mate. Once the change has occurred they will often go off the bite.
Awesome trip Mate! Good to see that you are doing much better with fishing. It really gives me hope. Thanks for bringing us along! HooRoo!
Alright Scotty, I’ve got some pack hiking trout streams to show you. All in and around the blueys. Some are just magical.
Loving the vids mate, great locations and back to basics. If the dry fly isnt always working try putting a nymph about 30cm or so under the dry, if it takes the nymph the dry will double as a strike indicator. Also dont worry about the hole in the hat mate, just adds character!
Scale that trout with the back of your knife blade, get the oil hot and get the skin crispy. It’s delicious. Also, you can cook the tail as well, fry it until it’s crispy and you’ve got another crunchy treat. When cooked fully, you should be ably to pull the meat off the bones easily on one side, then remove the entire skeleton. I think there may be some videos on that CZcams thingamajiggy. Great vid bud, beautiful space you’re in!
