  • Join me as I head out for a solo wild camping trip in heavy rain.
    After hiking into a remote river, I fish for trout then make my way to nearby loch to set up camp before the heavy rain sets in for the evening.
    Hope you enjoy the video,
    Matt & Poppy

    The respect I have towards campers, since I was young my uncle took me hunting went through many life threatening situations even killed a wolf. Taught me the fundamentals of masculinity of not being comfortable which leads to weakness in todays society. The complete serene peace you feel in wilderness is only explained by experience. Now I go alone and it takes balls for everyone that does the same. Love your videos keep it up!

    I really love camping like this, how free it is! Most people are so busy with city life that they rarely have time to relax. Do what you want to do while you are young and have time! I appreciate you sharing your videos so that those of us who are busy at work can also experience the life of relaxing visually.

    If it weren't for youtube videos, I'd have forgotten what rain looks & feels like. Everything here in Northern Nevada U.S.A. is all dried up, the ground is hard as a rock.
    Be grateful for rain whether it's light or a heavy downpour.
    You are the 1st youtuber I've seen that collect rocks to put over tent stakes B4 starting to pitch a tent same as MEeee. Smart, to have big heavy rocks to put on top of stakes as soon as the stakes have been pounded into the ground, especially if you expect strong gusty winds.
    I believe a saw & recognized a Soto Windmaster stove with 4 plex pot holder, same as mine.
    Please, make & model of your tent.
    I like to pre-cook bacon & cut it into bite size pieces, put them in a ziplok baggie & have them in a pouch in the waist belt of my backpack to snack on & to add to my cooked meals which normally are Freeze Dried Peak Refuel meals.
    Warm Regards from Reno, Nevada U.S.A.

    Amazing greens, then the heavens opened! I guess thats why the grass is so green.
    My son has recently got into fishing down here in Swindon, Its pretty land locked and seems catch and release and fisheries. We have caught a few carp and dace, but I miss catching trout up in Scotland. Catch a big trout in Scotland you have most of the Loch to fight it, catch a big fish in a fishery, it looks like you catch everyones lines!
    Will check out your link to Rigged and Ready to keep us supplied :)
