I head back into the beautiful Australian bush to explore a stunning river equiped with my swag/bedroll and just a handful of essential items. I also manage to catch a fish with my bare hands! Hope you enjoy the video.

If you enjoyed the video, I would love it if you would consider Subscribing and help me crack that 200k! Thanks legends
You deserve it brother. After watching only a few of your videos, you’ve already become one of my favourite channels. What an absolute gigachad
Always keep a backup Ferro rod !
Thanks for the stunning videos mate 👍
Gotcha mate! Just found your channel today!❤✌👍
Love watching Ur videos scotty.thanks for sharing.the scenery is awesome.i.ve never been camping,the Aussie bush looks beautiful.Enjoy Ur adventures.❤
That last critter was a beautiful Burton's Legless Lizard
Yep, awesome little critters!
I admire your bush skills immensely Scotty, but I don’t think anyone would think less of you if you carried a lighter with you as a back up fire starter!
I was thinking the same ha ha. The fact the guy was so relieved to light that last char cloth made me think the guy didn't actually have one with him ha ha
Agreed 😂
@@ringonotts I really don't think he did 😅
Using a lighter to start the fire would take away massively from the raw bushcraft walkabout style video, a lot of the reason why I love watching Scotty is the fact he makes the effort to not use a lighter and show how to properly start a fire out in the bush. Hooroo
@@paul-ff7kq Agreed
Excellent Scotty , one of your best you could feel the power of an ancient people as you walked that river bed.
This just reminds me of the Bush Tucker Man. Great stuff.
That relief from getting the fire going…a long way from help…whew, is just palpable. I”m a bit outdoorsy and have had trouble getting a fire going…when I really wanted a fire. IT FEELS SO GOOD. What a beautiful place. I may never get to Australia; so, thanks for sharing. From East Tennessee, U.S.A..
I am also from East Tennessee and I surely agree with ya. I will probably never get to go to this amazing and magical country but I am thankful to Scotty for showing us its wonders.
A little trick i learned watching Dave Canterbury - If you put the notch in the toggle off centre, the stick dips naturally and you can just drop it into the neck of the bottle. When you pull the string, the sticks already locked in place so it doesn't matter.
I know it would spoil the scene but i walk along in places like that and dream of building my house here or there or up there. great looking place. Thanks for taking me on a daydream. Ray.
I'm a big fan of basic camping so your video's are excellent, keep them coming. Love seeing the country you walk through.
Loved the minimalist approach to this video, plus the sites you camped at were magnificent. Keep up the good work Scotty.
Loved it. The power and history and just overwhelming magic is epic. Can imagine people for thousands of years walking through this beautiful landscape
Hot tip, save you bread bags for med size fish covers 👍
You're the only person doing this quality work showing Eastern NSW like this, thank you so much mate 👍
That is such a stunning location
This is my favourite of all your videos, Scotty. Awesomeness in every way.
scotty fishing like smeagol out here
UnBELIEVABLY surreal beautiful, one day, Au here I come. Mate you live in paradise, and it seems you are quite aware!
I love how you show youself cooking meals
I love that swag dude! Before 95 that’s pretty much all we had unless u were loaded. Great vid. You’re really found ur groove. Keep it up.
I love the emotion you always express in nature. You’re so genuine with how you connect with it and it comes across in the videos! Keep it up, I love the channel!
beautiful lil slice of Paradise...
That was in fact a legless lizard Scotty, Looked like a Burton's, real nice to see.
Funny thing: carp is one of the classic Christmas meals in Austria. So no kangaroo in Austria and no carp in Australia i guess 😂
If I was a yowie, that's where I'd live! Absolutely gorgeous. One of the most unique and pretty places I've ever seen. Please return and do a week long video, I'd love to see more!
I was in Western Australia with the US Marines in the early 80's. We spent a week on liberty in Perth (wonderful people). And a week in the field doing training with Australian forces (also wonderful people). On patrol we stop I get low like I'm supposed to. A brown snake pokes it's head out from under a bush a few feet from my head. Don't know what I was thinking at the time but I guess I got it right. I slowly stood up and backed away. Snake went the other direction. Looking at a Wikipedia article on Australian snakes I reckon it was an Eastern Brown snake. Very bad in terms of the venom but not an especially aggressive species.
They're very venomous, but our snakes are pretty chilled unless they feel threatened. You did the right thing, give them space and they'll just bugger off and look for a meal.
Love the channel Scotty! You’re killing it man
In the seventies there was Malcolm Douglas...in the eighties there was Alby Mangels & Jack Abslom...since then there has been no one, no one decent anyway. ...Now there is Scotty.....and Scotty I think I have said it before...you my friend are a True Adventurer...love you style and love your UA-cam content...you are as genuine as they come, and you are up there with the best of them.
Keep the vids coming mate.👏👏
Loved this video. Thanks for sharing your adventures Scotty. It gives me the courage to keep exploring.
In the 80's I saw a video called no where else on earth, it was a video of Australia, breathtaking!!!
Hi Scotty, I knew you would go back there, it's a special place I know , i keep going back myself, it's the tranquillity that draws ya back, you picked the water level just right this time..easy walking.. I told my wife years ago its where I want my ashes to be spread as well at the start of the gorge, Scotty a good walk is where you started down and turn up a major creek, that creek is as good if not better ..having a car at both end is the go, something to think about next time you go there.i look forward to see the next video you do down there Scotty, there will be another..I know. Dougy.
It sure is a special place mate. Thanks for that info. I think I know the creek your talking about. Do you have instagram? If you do, it would be great if you could shoot me a message (or an email which you can find on my website. The link is in the video description) I’d love to chat to you about the area regarding access and the creek you mention. Cheers mate.
Any hints on where a respectful camper might find this gorgeous spot
Hi Scotty, I do have istragram, I sent you a message on Friday , hope to here from soon, Dougy.
What river is this mate? I'm not interested in the specific spot just the water system in general.
Totally understand the spiritual feeling this ancient land gives u sometimes. Hard to describe but u sure can feel its presence aye. Reckon that old man Eagle was scoping out a couple of snakes for lunch too.
A nesting cup with the bottle would be useful. An awesome place.
Yummy Yummy Yummy eating while camping and thanks for GREAT content 🎉❤ from Atlanta Ga ❤
These Australian gorges are so bloody beautiful.
I love it when you go back to basics and are at one with nature in all its beauty and of course pitfalls. Well done on catching the Carp with your bare hands. Who would have thought it? Take care, be safe. ❤ Dorset, UK
Great trip Scotty! If you feel happy to let us know a little more about the first nations culture of an area you are in that would be interesting. Your love for our country is so evident mate, thanks for sharing your travels.
I am pretty sure that I have watched all your videos scotty and I think that you catching that fish bare handed was the coolest thing you've ever done out bush.
Awesome episode !! And...."The Humble Carp" sounds like a good name for a coffee cafe. LOL Love the beautiful nature there. I am in Florida USA. I never commented before but have been following your wonderful journey's through your land for awhile now. Thank you for your Humble appreciation for nature's beauty. When you stopped and showed how quiet it could be, you were just looking around and Sensing Nature. I do that too, I could almost feel that experience with you. Beautiful.
Love the background music .... Pretty cool ....
A beautiful place indeed. Unusual rock formations coupled with the bends in the river...so gorgeous. Loved seeing the Lyre bird. Making the pancake mix in the ziploc bag, then cutting the hole to pour it is a neat idea. I do a lot of camping and will have to try that. One less dish to wash. I wouldn't have the nerve to camp there with snakes, things thumping around at night, quicksand. I'd be totally freaked out. Good that you can do it and capture it for us on video. Never caught a fish with my hands, but they do it here in the US in the southern states. They call it noodling and it's usually catfish they're catching. Great video!
Scotty, yes I enjoyed this walkabout, scenery, logistics, camping procedures, peaceful nature, entertaining, good stuff, cheers 🍻
Hahaha the quicksand moment 😂😂
Really enjoying this video mate. I don’t know if you’re just stoked here because you have a kid on the way or what it is but you can tell how much you are loving being there. Anyway, I’ll keep watching on 👍👍
Hey Scotty Don't listen to anyone saying you are an “alcoholic I am 66 yo woman with alcohol issues which I am currently addressing you are a lovely man. You would not be able to hold a full time job and complete your tube videos if you were. I love your work. i camp on a regular basis and have travelled widely in Australia in tents and in a tear drop caravan….I also love Alton products. Good on you. Thanks
Helen
Beautiful views, Scotty. Ty for sharing.
I have been a sub for about three yrs or more, and I remember when you were having trouble with your fishing technique lol, you have improved greatly since then!! I never miss a video and always eagerly await a new one. I love the swagman trips that you do the most, manly because that is very similar to my own style of adventures!! Thx for another awesome adventure!!
such a beautiful little canyon to hike down. thanks for sharing this trip with us Scotty.
The power of that place must be intense, as it was felt thru the screen. I can imagine the old ones who were there before.
FIRE FIRE 🔥 🔥🔥Certainly beautiful- paradise it is. I love Lawn Hill similar colours and terrain- gorge as well for Kayak.
Scotty and co thank you for another great video 👏🏼👏🏼🙏
Dude, your lucky to be alive, that sound was a Drop bear!
It was trying to get you to come out so it could run up a tree and jump on you.
Lucky boy 😂
Tenks so much🤘 super👍🖐🤠 my friend
Best show Iv'e watch in a long time. Cheers for that.
Beautiful scenery ❤
Great,loved it.Very beautiful.
This was a great watch mate. That little stretch of creek is something else. Admire your skills in fire lighting too. Need to learn the flint and steel.
Another great watch thank you for showing that beautiful river again.
This reminds me of a place in Grand Canyon where you can wake up with the water gushing really deep ‼️
At the 14:12 spot, it totally sounds like the birds are all laughing... lol. Great video mate, what an epic spot!
I think I am only watching now to see your endless battle to catch fish.
old school Scotty. 😁 Swag, and light gear. What a beautiful place. I always find fish to be nicer from gin clear water. Trout, redfin, or carp. I think they all taste better from clear water. Thanks mate. Was a really good watch.
Ha Ha I loved when you caught the fish by hand..
Yes ha ha catching a fish would be hard enough using a rod and reel!
Oh man, another cracking video!! Well done mate!
That is super minimal camping alright. Love it.
What an amazing part of the country too!!
Thankyou- I really enjoyed this clip- Ive subscribed-keep up the good work
Bloody hands down best place! Next time a week for sure! Lucky you beat all that rain!
Carp was introduced to England by the monks who put them in ponds as food source so they make good eating but we gone and made them a game fish. And carp fishing is big business in the UK now enjoyed the video once again
Another awesome bloody video legend!! Keep them coming as always Scotty!! And What a hands on catch with that Carp!! Yewwww!!! Bring on the next adventure! Love it and love the hard work and passion you have mate!
-Liam 🇦🇺 🤙🏿
That is certainly a magic place Scotty love the sandstone cliffs but my special place is Round Mountain down near Cabramurra in the Snowy Mountains maybe you and Mattsy should go there .
Beautiful walk about! Thanks for sharing!
Easily one of my fav vids of yours, it had a really nice story moments with you struggling sometimes. gj scooty!
I so miss the currawong sound, oh and the bellbird oh and the lyre bird. W.A. sounds different. Thank you. Ray.
Hi Ray,
I am originally from Southern NSW, living in WA for the last 30 years. I so miss the sounds of the bellbirds and currawong too....the sounds of home.
Beautiful place super camping ⛺️ I can stay there all year long the birds are singing saying hey guys we have to day visiter 😂😂
Carp is great for eating. Anything that can inspire medieval monks to dig out long chains of ponds and farm them on a grand scale has to have something going for it.
Those ancient monks needed fish for Friday eating, and if their abbey or monastery was inland, they needed to have a good supply of freshwater fish and carp had all the right characteristics - tasty, easily farmed, and a great conversion ratio (weight gained for food supplied). They would move them between ponds to keep the fry safe from the older fish through systems of sluices, by dragging nets to drive the fish to the next pond, feeding them mostly on kitchen waste. Very advanced for the time!
They tend to out-compete other fish so the lack of any other species in that river is no sign that they weren't there before carp arrived and spoiled the party, so indigenous people would likely have fished there, very probably using traps.
Scottys gone walkabout...and it was good.
Stunning location as always. Getting that fish barehanded was pretty cool 👍
Dig a hole in the sand and put the water bottle in and push the sand in surrounding the bottle to absorb the heat 👍 cools down very quickly
Hi Scotty love the Sound of all the Birds 🦅 it’s just Awesome Amazing ❤😊
Another great walkabout Scotty...You find some great places to wildcamp 🙂
I would feel like a little kid walking through the water. Amazing video.
Im sure you won't see this but two sticks with your shirt makes a pretty good sing net.
Well that quick sand just awoke a childhood fear from watching too many movies with people being swallowed up in sand 😂
Love the content,keep it up mate! Just remember two is one and one is none. Always carry a backup fire source.
Stunning part of the country mate. That cave looks like a brilliant spot for camp. Looks like the whole system could make for a great video exploring its length. Good to see you still having a go at the Carp too mate. They are a pretty decent fish food wise.
Same with Tilapia. Bushyboy Oz.
@@ewengillies9826 I've heard people say they are pretty decent eating too, never caught one so I don't know.
@@OnCountryWithMick they're much better than carp mate .. eaten heaps of them. Bushyboy Oz.
Sub :) A little tip, if I may, keep your firestarter around your neck and your knife on your belt. If you loose all your gear somehow you will have those 2 most important items with you.
Tks for sharing and much appreciated from someone all the way up north in Canada
I love the view and your story 🎉
Thanks for the trip, Scotty!
Such a lovely experience!
Great video Scotty…many thanks. Keep on keeping on young fella 👍
That was great, Captain Scotty. Tysm. ❤❤❤
Hahaha, I was just eating dinner watching you cook the corn and lamb, missus laughed and said we are eating the same thing.
Love the video bud.
What a beautiful place amazing and I really love nature♥️♥️♥️♥️
ripper adventure .. those carp are sure good eating when they come out of those sandy creeks ,
Great trip, Scotty. Carp definitely tastes better from a cleaner waterway. Would be cool to see what game approaches your campsites, game camera.
Hi Scotty thank you for the wonderful trips I am able to take with you. Just a comment about your water you said it was too hot to drink, why not pour a little in your frying pan, the larger area should help it to cool faster. Hope you might try this the next time. All the best from Ontario, Canada.
Im sure someone would have mentioned it but a lifestraw is tiny and lightweight drink straight out of the creek
Loved it!!
Scotty, another epic video!...Love the Swag vids...thanks mate!...woods
That is such a beautiful, beautiful place.
Reminded me of the movie "Jerimiah Johnson" when you werechasing the carp around.
Spinoff channel: Scotty’s Gone Yowiehunting
17:22 that reminds me of, I need to build up my fire kit, how’s it go 1 is none 2 is 1….Think I’ll do an overkill ten different methods I reckon should keep me out of trouble. Hey Scotty amazing spot, reminds me of a few of your old videos on your solo hikes. Brilliant Video 👍🇦🇺. 24:40 nice catch Scotty 30:10 you could always head back there in the future, and make it a few more nights Scotty. A bit of ASMR never hurt anyone. I’ve found a few spots where the spirit is almost tangible where time seems not too be linear and your back thousands of years next one oorroo
The "first" snake of the trip, bloody aussies man. Mad.
