Awesome seeing a team-up with Simon!
great to see you guys join up..Simon isthe dude.. and what a lovely river to break your cherry (just guessing)
the paddle fast i hear banjos had me giggle.. look forward to the next
Thanks :) I do love Simons channel, and he's a great guy too.
That is a seriously cool way to travel
Well that was different. Great video looking forward to part two and will see you soon mate 😁👍
Thanks Carl, yep.. got some new kit for the moors, looking forward to it
Kent Survival I can't wait and I will text you later about where to meet😁👍
Great. Reminds me when I was young. 3 day trip down Connecticut River. From Vermont, through Massachusetts to Connecticut. Good fishing, good times.
Sounds great James.. I definitely have the bug now haha
"Paddle quicker. I hear banjos." Excellent!
The link in your comments section for Simon's channel comes back with a "This channel does not exist" message.
I enjoyed the video, and look forward to the next part. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you :).. updated the link now buddy
Coming to you from Colorado, USA. I've watched so many of your videos, I feel like I know you both, I appreciate and love everything you guys do. Thanks so much Andy and Simon. You guys rock! You've inspired me to get out and learn who I really am. Thank you
Thank you for the kind words Chad, bit jealous of you have Colorado to explore! haha Happy new year buddy
My kind of video Andy. cant wait for part two.
Thanks mate.. should be out next week :)
Nice canoe trip and camping , this is something i love to do.... nice trip boys.
Thanks... was an excellent trip
Camping with Canoes and Kayaks is a real passion of mine. Amazing the amount of wildlife you can sneak up like Platypuses and Lyrebirds. More videos like this would be great!
Id certainly love to do more of this but don't have the room for a canoe :( hopefully Simon will invite me back up... hint hint haha
It’s loving paddling down the English rivers,done it myself as a kid,great fun .Thanks for the vid.
Thanks Susan.. I love it, must do it again soon :)
Very nice beginning of the trip. A nice change for you! Looking forward to the second half!
Thanks mate, It was a first for me and loved every minute, hope to do it again sometime for sure
Most enjoyable video Andy & Simon. Thanks for taking us along, looking forward to part 2. Cheers..........Les
Thanks Les
That river puts your paddling skills to the test :-) , but it looks like a fun trip , a little different than your use too
Thanks Steve, yeah, my first proper time out on the river, loved it :)
Great video andy looked like quite the adventure cant wait to see the rest
I have a bad relationship with canoes so I'll just live this one vicariously through you Andy :D
haha, oh dear :p did you get wet? I loved it, was a great experience
Kent Survival Ah I've fallen in various water courses many times. Not great at doing safety. I don't mind that part. It's just the general operation of canoes I don't get in with, I've never had a non infuriating experience with one. Also, while I'm still fat bastard I used to be a lot worse and that never went well with them either, not good for balance unless you've got an all fat bastard crew and then you just sink :D
Conrad bet you go attacked by swans, we’ve all been there pal 🦢
Brilliant video guys. Thanks for sharing your experience.
Thanks for watching Richard
I can’t wait to go canoeing
Looked a very challenging river to paddle down! Good going guy.
Hey Nick.. yeah, the first half was a bit low and overgrown but it opens up in part 2, cheers for watching mate
We love watching your show
Lovely stretch of river, iv not really had a go in a canoe before, something for the bucket list , nice one Andy.
Thanks mate.. I loved it, 10 hour days on the water was hard towards the end but worth every minute, think I have the bug.. shame I don't have the room for my own though
Another great video by Andy! Thanks for sharing my Friend...
Thank you very much :)
After your Lofty Wiseman A- frame SaS........ you're doing Deliverance, love it Andy.
Thank you :) loved being on the river
This one was fun. Looking forward to parts 2 and 3.
Thanks buddy :)
Loved it mate.. well jealous.. Awesome stuff.
Thanks Kev.. I loved it.. hows my technique? haha, luckily we were both comfortable on paddling opposite sides, worked out well.
Andy
I think you did really well mate
It's really cool being out on the water.
Plus you didn't get wet . Bonus!
Looking forward to part two.
Cheers my friend.
I love watching you cook your meals
SUPER!
Thank you :)
You Guys are the best. Thanks for the fun and the good videos :) so fun
That was very enjoyable fellas. Lovely summer colours, sounds and sights. River could do with a drop more water to make life easier but hey ho. Enjoy boys. ATB Moose...... p.s. "ok, yeah, out of shot, lol"
haha, yeah, was a little shallow towards the beginning, lots of getting out and pushing :p Thanks for watching moose

Thanks Cherie, It was a fantastic trip :)
Enjoyed this, I used to do a lot of it in Germany, lots of rivers and canals leading through big woods and forests.

That was a hidden gem. Just when I think i've seen all your videos, I stumble upon some more. Superb as usual Andy.
Great video guys, beautiful editing! Camp wait for part 2👍

Very good video mate just wish they were a tad bit longer but you do your best and it's good enough mate I'd love a wild camp in Ireland someday with you or England.
Thanks mate, would love to get to Ireland at some point
love the vids, can't wait for my camping trip 10 days in the mourne mountains and your vids are hyping me up even more :) !!
Thanks buddy.. Enjoy your trip mate
Really nice video Andy. I was happy when u guys finally decided to camp cause that was allot of lifting going on there from one water hole to the other
Thanks :) yes, quite a few portages but its all part of it.. and they are also trail mix stops ;) haha
Hi, Nature Bound shared your video and I'm glad he did I realy have enjoyed it from the river to the wildlife, and not so wildlife lol the cows were funny. I enjoyed the video so much I to am sharing it and looking forward to watching more 😄 the blue grass music was a great choice my friends.

Nice collaboration Blokes!
Just seeing this for the first time. and I'm new to your channel. loving all the top tips . And I'm watching all the back categories good work mate
Cracking adventure buddy. Muchly enjoyed and very relaxing.
I bet all that paddling gave your arms a good work out!
Cheers,
Andy
Thanks Andy.. yeah.. the shoulders were feeling it at the end of the days haha well worth it though
i lit a fire 2day with a ferro rod, my knife and some birch bark. the first time tryin it and it worked, cant believe how good it makes u feel! 💪
Nice one :) all good skills to have and fun to practice :)
I love your presentations
Loving your videos!! Just recently stumbled on your channel! The "paddle quick" sticker inside the canoe is brilliant!
Hi, thanks for watching and welcome to the channel
Its been awhile Andy for a wild camp. This one was fun, thank you. Great shooting.
Thank you very much :) I loved every minute of it haha
Great vid Andy mate, some great footage. The young cows are very curious mate. The young cows in my local field are fascinated by my dog when we walk past them. Thanks for sharing Andy. Atb Sconja 👍
Thanks Sconja mate, yeah.. loved the cows haha, they would have come the whole way I think :p
Awesome, thank you
When I saw Simon staring into the depths I thought ooops!..Andy has gone in already hahaha..! Great filming though...and it looked like a lot of fun...Great stuff 👍
haha, I slipped in the mud but never into the river luckily :p Thanks for watching
Briliant camera shots . loved watching this , thanks for the entertainment.
That was so enjoyable ty for the videos
Thank you :) Glad to hear that you enjoyed it, I sure did
Loved the Robocop love. Great video man. I Google earthed where you were. Pretty awesome. Next time just take MREs!
Thanks buddy.. I love testing MREs but cooking at camp gives you something to do an excuse for a little fire haha.
Very Grantchester Meadow lads. Nice one! 🛶 🏴
‘Wicked’ hahaha! You did well to get that edited so quickly - well done sir! Amazing video, you captured the essence of the trip perfectly! Thanks buddy - great trip, great company!
Thanks Simon, and thanks for making it a great trip.. hopefully the first of more together mate.
Definitely!
Nice one Andy, congrats on 12000 subs, that's awesome! I can't wait to get my canoe out for the great Glen next month
Thanks buddy :) bet you have a great time mate, thank you for inviting me, it was just too bigger commitment with not knowing what was happening with work.. sure we'll get together one day!
Kent Survival thanks dude, that would be great, I'll give you a shout the next time I'm heading London way.

Really enjoyed that. Meandering river, a wild camp - that's the life! Have started experimenting with a Lixada wood burner msyelf. Handy little item. Thanks for the post.
Thank you :) yeah, I like the lixada for the money, its a good bit of kit :)
Loved this and looking forward to part 2, PS I feel your hayfever pain
Thanks :) hay fever is still going grrrr, so fed up with it haha
Mate that looks a cool trip, Good on you. ( I'm jealous ) 👍
haha, it was great, so grateful to Simon, loved it
Yeah that's boss! Pity Kent is a bit naff for paddling, but I reccommend the tidal Medway for some isolated island stuff.
Thanks mate, I wish I had a canoe... yeah, love the medway, my friend has a boat up river, very nice.
Would love to see some fishing action
Great video Sir! New sub glad I stumbled onto the channel. I though for a minute that river was going to come out into GNARNIA!! LOL. And the I Hear Banjos!! Classic funny stuff!! Thank you. Big E
Lucky bugger... I would love to do this, keep meaning to try kayaking or canoeing, I have a fair bit of water and rivers around me here in West Sussex, brilliant viddy and footage as always Andy, & to get the word "Portage" in is brilliant... "Kent Robinet" cheers mate. Lee
you gotta do it mate, was an amazing experience. Thanks for watching me portage ;) haha
Awesome video pal atb john
Thank you John :)
Nice Video!!!👍🏻
Looks like a lot of fun!!!
Viele Grüße
Tobias
Thanks, It certainly was.. loved every minute
Hi good video, thank for share, I`m from Argentina
Yo just want to let you know you kick ass and keep it up!!
Thank you very much indeed.. ill do my best :)
cool paddle adventure gentlemen. i was going to ask if you had a video upload from your instagram post the other day. you didn't look out of breath carrying the canoe around, bravo. lol...i'm also subscribed to mr bloke. he's a skillful gent. right on bud, can't wait to see part 2. cheers brah.
Thanks buddy.. that canoe was certainly heavier than it looked though haha, was a great experience and one id love to do again some day. Glad you're already watching Simon, the man is very talented at making / modifying kit.
Haha the cows on the portage haha
Another cracking adventure. Great to see your view from the front. Almost like a louisiana swamp at times. Paddle quicker, i hear banjos.
I saw a video from Damien on his “ Fellwander “ channel and it was so amusing to watch. The water was to low and he ended up pulling it instead of riding . Then he had to inflate his inflated canoe every fifteen minutes or so but he has such a sense of humor he turn it almost like a comedy. Love him and his channel .
Nice one buddy too much hassle for me though lol 👌
Thanks buddy :) the hard work was well worth it
Damn this chance is growing fast
That English river would be considered a big creek here in the States.
"At times on quiet waters one does not speak aloud but only in whispers, for then all noise is sacrilege."
- Sigurd F. Olson
That looks like a cracking little river to paddle along, I don't think I've ever seen 'Portage' signs on a UK river before, certainly not down here in the west. Apparently we'll be meeting on the moor in a week, see you there :)
I havnt seen the signs before either but I might have just not noticed I guess :/ Yes.. out on the moors soon mate.. looking forward to it :D
Looked a great trip thinking about getting a kayak myself any tips Andy love the channel always something different m8 keep it up 👍
Very well presented, wish I was there.
ATB,
Keith
Alabama Bushcrafters
Thanks Keith :)
Hey the you old rascal...Doing my video in the snow here in N.C. hope to have it up and running soon...
Hey Andy ..Love the way you have to bow to Mother Nature...every now and then!
Must have felt good to set up camp...and feel the openess of that field after being SWAMPED .all day..(difficult breathing through your nose..i know this one when camping this time of year)
I think you may employ a drone soon.....what say thee?
indeed.. gotta roll with nature haha.. especially with the hay fever :p I can't afford a drone but my friend (from the fort video) says hell lend me his DJI again which is cool of him :) Thanks for watching mate
New sub great video pal
Nice job bloke
Thanks John
You two, together are so much fun to watch.
You ever think of having an Andy and Simon Adventure Channel?
I would subscribe!
Fun Adventuring
Well you guys definitely use canoeing etiquette!... How civilized in a slowingly increasingly uncivilized world.. Thanks....oh I have watched the bloke already it is interesting the ever so slight different nuances .. like the beaver activities.. I didn't see that in the bloke's reel... thanks again...
When I saw the canoe and the banjo playing (yep you guessed it deliverance) it puts a different aspect to wild camping but looks like you enjoyed it till the hey fever started, I think it would be better if you had a continuous river instead of having to keep on lifting the canoe in and out of the water hard work different video but still enjoyable thanks for sharing ♠
Thanks for watching buddy.. no squealing.. unless you count me trying to breathe in that field haha
Kent,Simón,sailors,is ok.good performans,in the river,.(second part).
All the work you guys must be doing for this. Paddle up somewhere, put down the camera pointing the direction you want, paddle back the way you came, paddle past the camera, paddle back to pick up the camera... more effort than just walking to and from where you put the camera.
