You're the first guy on youtube who actually did a Food chain fishing challenge that in my opinion was done correctly. Literally working their way from small to large. Much love for this content.
First I want to say that your UA-cam channel has been a bright spot in my year and I thank you for your content. Let me explain, everyone has had a bad year with the COVID BS but mine has been a year from hell. For the past two years I have been taking care of my parents and they both past away 3 months ago. Then to top everything off my dog of 14 years was put down today. This has been the worst year of my life. Even though your channel does not take all the pain away it gives me a bit of relief and I thank you for that. Keep up the great work and maybe someday Ill get to go out there with you.
Do some collaboration with other UA-camrs, that's the best and quick way to get more views and subscriber. I am sure if someone watchers your videos they would stick around
I really enjoy learning about all these different plants, it broadens one’s horizons and makes our surroundings that much more interesting. Thanks Andy.
Thank you, just be really careful about where you kayak up north we do have a lot of big crocodiles from Gladstone all the way around to Western Australia
@@Andysfishing its good winter here. So got peas,collards,mustards,garlic,beet root, radish,kale,spinach and got 28 hens so getting around 7 eggs a day. How is yours doing?
My buddy Jon recently introduced me to your content and I’ve enjoyed every video. Keep up the great work sir! If you’re ever in San Antonio Texas my buddy Jon and I would love to treat you to some fishing and a steak dinner. Our treat!
@@Andysfishing I find it interesting as to what you use. Ignore this top comment pretending everyone thinks what they think. Some of us care. Lots of us perhaps
Hey mate! By far the bear of our woods! Keep up the great work, been a number one fan! Iove you're content & hope to see many more trips! Hope all is well Dan!
@@Andysfishing I've been following survival/fishing/camping channels for years now, and all the high quality ones blow up eventually, since your channel is the best of the best in my opinion, I have no doubt it will happen, and I reckon very soon, keep it up mate!
I totally think you should go to Louisiana. Watching you go for blue crab, crawfish and red fish while hanging out with Louisianans would definitely be an awesome watch. Talk about a culture shock for anyone not from the U.S. Could even get adventurous and try hunting for nutria and alligators. Seeing you in Florida would also be awesome. Long time supporter here, hope whatever way you go you have a good time. Can't wait for the content.
I fished in Florida some time ago, great fun, also Georgia, wished I could have gotten to Texas and Louisiana. Search "andysfishing Florida, everglades, bass"
Those rainbow fish are actually desirable Australian native aquarium fish. I use to work in one. That's awesome you actually found them hahaha Awesome awesome video Andy!
when i was a kid in florida id use a treble to snag croakers by the shore and then cast them out and catch fish. i caught a huge jack crevalle one time like that. great video as always dude
Hi Andy I've been watching your you tube channel for a long time and love it. I can't believe no major fishing or camping companies have jumped on board for sponsorship!!! Keep up the good work.
Great videos, it's kind of stress buster for me. Just sit back nd watch your videos is my weekly routine. Would like to see you get someone along with you and you guiding them about do's and don't about these kind of adventures. That would be lot of fun to watch. Great job man much appreciated
Guten Abend Andy Ich danke dir für dieses neue tolle Video Ich warte immer Sehnsüchtig auf jedes neue deiner Abenteuer. Wie immer ein super Video Du sagtes ja ich kann auf Deutsch schreiben. Wenn du irgendwann mal in Deutschland sein solltest würde ich sehr gerne mit dir Angeln :) das wäre ein Traum Ich werde es leider nie nach Australien schaffen da ich an meinen Nieren erkrankt bin aber deine Videos lassen mich für einen Moment mit dabei sein und dafür Danke ich dir sehr. Bitte mach weiter so und bleib Gesund With Love from Germany
Hi Franky, all good, write in German, I understand it all. I may fish around Europe some time, but from my last 2 or 3 trips to Germany, the rules and regulations don't allow for good fishing. So It may have to be Holland, Sweden, Spain, etc. What is the best fishing near you? Please answer in a new comment, not a reply.
Great work on the challenge Andy! Excellent video content too. We used to fish for eels as kids, I remember cooking them up with batter mixed with salt and pepper. We take a frying pan and jar full of batter with us down to the river... ah the good ol' days. I'm a fair bit older now, and recently moved up to cairns. I'd like to try an over night adventure in the jungle, it'd be great to free the mind for a day or so. If you are ever up cairns way, and feel like showing someone the ropes (I have a few fears about doing this the first time round -- namely how do I safely park my car without coming back to it destroyed and various other concerns of a similar nature). Thanks again for the great content!
yeah, it's sad that we have to worry about our cars being left overnight, unlikely any one would steal my car! You should have seen my fear on our first 4 day hike!
I still remember not having to lock my bike up as a kid. I think I need to get myself a sat phone before I head into the jungle. broken bones and snake bites are my biggest concern. Noises in the night could have me break out the torch, but unlikely to be of much concern. Although our minds like to embellish
Hi Andy, Great vid on the "Chain of Life" in the small pond. I have caught many Tuna off Kona, when using a small (anchovy-size fish) bait for a small Bonita, hooking the Bonita and catching larger Ahi... They have FAD (Fish Aggregate Devises) off shore and you can witness the chain of life from Anchovies up to 1,000 lb Black Marlin... I truly enjoy your respect for the environment, respect for the animals and your true joy in every fish you catch... Steve from Nagoya
Hey Andy hope your having a terrific weekend keen to see your next adventure mate. I've never tried smoked eel before. And what a clever idea with the tiny shrimp, still entertained 😀
Such a typical nth Queenlsander Andy... "this looks like it has crocs in it, im just going to go 10ft this way where i feel safe". I can't tell you the number of times that exact thought process has happened in my head when im fishing haha.
31:31 are you sure it was even a tree , Schrödinger's cat!! comes to mind . You only think you know the answer. BTW that EEL looks dam amazing Andy well done . I would like to see you do the same with a skinny (Queenfish)and or Mullet or a small Trveor
At 5:38 on the video - Gotu Kola actually is a Sri Lankan word :). The common word is Pennyworth. Sri Lankans make a wonderful salad by finely shredding Gotu Kola, with grated coconut and chopped up shallots, with some lime juice to balance the flavor. Try it out Andy!
Lol love the "hoo hoo hoos" lol man ur such a positive personality what I'd do to have a buddy like you to fish with. Wish you the best in your journey Andy glad I found your channel and content man!
I live in Alaska and filled out the survey the first time it went out. I fish all five species of salmon and would want to do a halibut charter as well, hope you decide to make the trip!
I’m fairly new to your channel Andy. I really enjoy the overnight camp and cook videos! Thank you for all your hard work in providing such quality content!
The Amazon for me, Piranah, Pirarucu, vampire fish and the list goes on. Just came back from the cape. Having a few beers with a mate on the sunny coast, 7 days later we are at the tip fishing. All happened so fast the wife had no time to hassle me. Haha. Bring on the next fishing adventure.
that berry at 2.15 looks allot like a Guava, yeah eel is awesome love our ones smoked but also tried them in Japan over a Hibachi the chef killed the eel then filleted it and skewered it onto Hibachi talk about fresh confronting but mmmmmmmmmmmmm sooo good.
Great video Andy, I was getting worried that the food chain might have come back to get you early in the morning but you made it through. That eel bought back memories of a camp we had on the Brisbane river in the seventies when we forgot our pliers and used our teeth to skin them, the crasy things we do as kids. But eel is really good to eat even fried in oil.Thanks for the adventure.
No worries, ha ha, skinning with your teeth is hard core, that slime in your mouth. I would puncture the skin and thread in sticks. Sounds like you've had a few adventures too.
Not bad mate. Good bush skills. I got brought up with indigenous locals from east Arnhem land. I would love to try a survival video but live off the land and ocean. Mix fish or crab with what natural salads and fruits I can find in the bush.
@@Andysfishing very good. I know some trees with natural honey in them and other trees with fresh water. Other berries etc. Its very good to know and to share with others too. Good work mate. 👍🏼
Awesome stuff and refreshing to see someone genuine and not all hyped up. Hey I'd love to see more flying adventures... thats what lured me to the channel. Keep up the good work 👍
Thank you, I can’t act like a clown like some other UA-cam is do power to them but it’s just not me. I’ve been hanging to use my flying machine again but it’s just too windy so soon as I can I’ll use the UltraLite and do an episode
@@Andysfishing na your videos are great mate. Very informative and good that you encourage others to try a bit of adventure outside of the modern world. Lots of love from brisbane
Impressed by the small 22 size hook. I fish with size 12 hooks on a regular basis: take the kids (4 and 6) and bring them to our local creek (basically behind our house). Small piece of bait under a bridge, and the kids are entertained pulling out small fish for 2-3 hours. Also great way to show them different species of fish we otherwise struggle to get! Good fun all around, and I get the odd herring I can put on as live bait on the bigger hook. So far caught a flatty and a mangrove jack doing that. Small fish we have caught: herring (target species), juvenile mangrove jack, Moses perch, stripy, bream and others.
Great vid Andy reminds me of my younger days ,with a few mates we'd go down the creek and catch yabbies to catch fish to eat from about the age of ten or set snares to catch a rabbit always had a great time. I hope some youngsters watch your videos and do the same ,one of my favourite sayings is ,If you give a man a fish he will eat for a day but if you teach a man to fish or hunt he will eat for the rest of his life.
best of luck with trips but with this covid We re all living in uncertain times saying that I'm off tonight to try to catch a conger off the beach First time I've seen you and ill watch again Stay healthy
Thanks for saying hi. Did you catch your Eel? I'd be keen to hear your technique and what locations you look for, we don't get eels off the beach here. Please start a new comment to reply.
When I was a kid I was an "expert" eel catcher (unintentionally). The berry tasting brought back recent memories: After a few beverages, my neighbor and I decided to taste some random berries on the edge of the property (lol)... we only licked them, but found our mouths started stinging/becoming numb... We called poison control- yeah, the person on the phone definitely thought of us as the idiots we were! I'm thankful to see you throwing caution to the wind here, it's not just me!!!!! (Everyone else, DON'T do this at home)
Been waiting for an eel catch and cook. I've only had the Japanese version but man do I love it. You made this year a whole heap better Andy. Thank you.
Thank you for being with me for so long, I didn’t actually know what locations were in the survey that was Trova Trip that did that, I’m sure if enough people ask for it we can do a trip into the great Lakes to
Should give grilled eel ago, In the Japanese marinated style andy! (Grilled unagi) it's actually delicious and soft and melts in your mouth. Since you're waiting overnight to eat it, you might as well let it marinade
hello andy thank you for sharing your awesome videos and its so educational and cool to watch i subscribed to you since 100k subs im a follower from beirut lebanon much regards to you
@@Andysfishing Oh I'm certain about that! I really enjoy your videos and its and it's really cool to get a reply back. I wish you the best of luck buddy and i hope your channel grows and grows. I know I'll be here for every video uploaded! Be safe and thank you for responding. Made my day.

That’s one of my plans is to educate people and make them appreciate nature a bit more the more we appreciate it the less we are likely to destroy it
Videos just keep getting better and better Andy. I sent the last video to my Dad and now he's thinking of taking our kayaks up North for a trip...LOL.
Thank you, just be really careful about where you kayak up north we do have a lot of big crocodiles from Gladstone all the way around to Western Australia
Yeah mate I want to go for a trip north too. So many Jacks and cod and I've yet to catch a Barra. North is the go.
Congratulations on 200k!!!!!!

Thanks for saying hi. Did you catch your Eel? I'd be keen to hear your technique and what locations you look for, we don't get eels off the beach here. Please start a new comment to reply.
Keep it up andy. Fantastic video. I am game to try most things but I am still squeamish on the idea of eating eel. :P
You can do it! It really is delicious if done right.
Has to be the best catch and cook I've seen this year!!
Wow, thanks!
@@Andysfishing its the first food chain bait challenge I've seen and you definitely nailed It!!
Imagine getting a heart from this adventurous man!😊 from philippines 🇵🇭
Are you go you got a heart all to yourself
Yeah ofcourse..btw thanks for the heart and also for replying to my comment po..Idol!😁
When I was a kid I was an "expert" eel catcher (unintentionally). The berry tasting brought back recent memories: After a few beverages, my neighbor and I decided to taste some random berries on the edge of the property (lol)... we only licked them, but found our mouths started stinging/becoming numb... We called poison control- yeah, the person on the phone definitely thought of us as the idiots we were! I'm thankful to see you throwing caution to the wind here, it's not just me!!!!! (Everyone else, DON'T do this at home)
Ha ha, kindred spirits have the same outlook on life I think. Lets hope we both don't take it that one step too far...
So sweet!!! Thank you so much!!!
You are so welcome!
good stuff Mate, more please of the native fruits etc ,living off the land as much as possible
I have a new video live now, enjoy.
Been waiting for an eel catch and cook. I've only had the Japanese version but man do I love it. You made this year a whole heap better Andy. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!

Fantastic my dear friend 👍 but this is video it was poor from adventures as past videos I will wait the strong video in next trip 👌💪 God bless you 🤲
Ok, you didn't like this one much?
Another great video! Can’t wait to see the results from the survey I def filled one out! Cheers Andy.
Cool that you fill the survey out, I’m keen to see the results myself I’ve only seen a rough break up so far
Glad I've been here since 100k! Sad you didn't put great lakes area in the survey but i look forward to the lucky fans!
Thank you for being with me for so long, I didn’t actually know what locations were in the survey that was Trova Trip that did that, I’m sure if enough people ask for it we can do a trip into the great Lakes to
@@Andysfishing and if you do, come in the winter and do some ice fishing. Lake simcoe in Ontario is pretty epic
Superb episode. Cheers bloke 😊
Thank you I’m always trying to get better
Should give grilled eel ago, In the Japanese marinated style andy! (Grilled unagi) it's actually delicious and soft and melts in your mouth. Since you're waiting overnight to eat it, you might as well let it marinade
Sounds great! I hope I remember that
Good stuff man. I hope I get a chance to go.
As I said I hope to fish all around the world so yes let’s hope so
That eel looked so good bro mmm. Well done man
It was done just right.
