Solo Camping, Upgraded DIY Boat Tent, Catch & Cook
Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 сер 2024
- Solo Boat camping in the freshly updated boat tent. Great to get down south to give it a test and escape the rain and wind back home. Plus a simple catch and cook tasting some bread and butter species.

Very nice boat camping setup! Brilliant design. I would love to see another island camping video. Those overnight island spearfishing trips are super entertaining.
Making me homesick Rod! Many is the day we goofed off school & explored the fishing mysteries of Lavendar Bay & all the way around to Neilsen Park & Camp Cove etc. In later years we'd fish at night off the rocks around at Diamond Bay. So much structure - we often found early evenings & mornings the most productive, I suspect the sound of all the harbour working traffic might be a factor. What a beautiful city it is, the underwater scene is epic. Thanks mate just fantastic memories! Hope you went to Marrickville for a banh mi for us! ✌️👍
Cheers Paul, yea always so good to get back for a visit, and having my own boat just makes it so good getting around to all the spots👌🤙
Being a kid again at the old go to spots, with big boy toys...cant get much better than that mate. 👍
I hope that you had a good visit with your grandma. Thoughts and prayers for you both.
Always love your videos showing areas were you grew up and the excitement in your voice speaks the childhood memory's you are so fond of. Keep up the epic journey we all love and enjoy rod. Take care 🤙
Cheers mate, yea always feels good to get back to the old stomping ground 👌
Hey Rod good to see you I hope you got a chance to meet up with your parents and grandparents and I hope and pray that they are in good health. Simple is good when cooking fresh fish I think so😅. Anyways enjoy your visit home with your family and have a blessed day. Aloha from Kansas
Thanks mate🤙
The scenery mixed in with your chilled vibes create such relaxing videos 😂👌🏻 first time I’m watching one not on an island/beach
Awesome set up on the tent. Really great modification for the pole. I love using what I’ve already got around the house. ❤️. Beautiful setting for fishing. I hope you get to see your grandmom. Best wishes.
4:40 would make a epic post card. with the sun ferries and train going around the bridge.
You should setup a little water outlet on the cutting board so it has a constant flow of water across it. this will keep it cool and constantly clean the board/ fish as you are doing your thing.
I was thinking the same thing. His live well is close by, he could run a take off hose from there and have easy flowing water to his cleaning station.
What a sweet bunch of coves next to, of all things, The Sydney Opera house. That one ferry cruising under the bridge i see alot in the Carribean for VITRAN. meaty little fishes this go. that first catch was really similar to a fish down in FL we call pinfish. What a great bait for a red drum or a speckled trout! Cheers from the Cape Rod, thanks for keepin it real Friday night!!
Greetings from Redondo Beach CA 🇺🇸 wonderful background of the Sydney Opera. Nice video . Cheers. 🥂🥂
Beautiful place to grow up! Thanks for sharing it with us. I was surprised at your underwater footage, the water was very clear there, and the sea life looked very healthy, being so close to a big city. Not all places are like that, unfortunately they treat the sea like a sewer. Good on you mates! Always enjoy your vids, thanks and take care.
Man that tent set up is so good. Seriously well done.
Watching this video is a reminder to seize every moment and make the most of every adventure. Thanks for the inspiration
I would do white wheel covers. Just in case it falls off you can see if it came off while walking up to the car and replace it. Rather than being black it will be more difficult to tell if one of the pieces came off.
Thank you for all your beautifully filmed, interesting and exciting videos, Rod! Here in the South of Finland it is winter. A few weeks ago we were shivering with about -25 oC, and getting a lot of snow. It is still about 3-4 months to awakening of the nature in the spring. Therefore it is so lovely to see the sunshine and lush green vegetation in your videos. And the exciting fishing! Wishing you, your family and especially your grandmom all the best 💕
Thanks for watching, yea -25! That’s colder then I have ever experienced I think😅
Well done all round.Surprized yu could see anything underwater rose bay now. Incredicle harbour love that icredible seaway. To bad about what lays beyond. (concrete) Good on ya with the blackfish right on. Hey hope yu give lowdown on a leathery soon ha ha.
Hello from Beautiful British Columbia Canada 🇨🇦
Thank you Rodney, that’s an outstanding solution🎉, exactly what I have been trying to figure out for my boat. Hope you don’t mind me copying everything down to finest detail 😎👍
Great podcast. I only counted 10 YEAH! I’m from the States, and I’m sorry for teasing you on that…
Watch out for the bull sharks 😂🦈
Yea I saw that bite on that ladies leg. Was a serious chomp🤢
Is it something you worry about when you spend time in the water, or does it just not cross your mind at all?@@rokkitkit
Hey Kit, great content, thanks. If you are anchoring and sleeping on the boat, I would recommend mausing your anchor shackle, at least with a cable tie. The pin can work loose on an anchor in even small chop.
your videos are the best part of my weekends. Thanks mate
Great video as always my friend. XOXOX Prayers for your grandma!
that little filet table on the side of the boat is soooo cool.
Nice sometimes to get back to basics simple fish and meal , hope you have a good catch up with Mates and Family, best wishes goes to your Grandma hope all is well 🤗
Cheers Wombat 🐾🤗👍🍻
Thanks mate, yea I’m finding more and more that I’m happy with a simple fish and a feed. Always fun the catch a bigg’n here and there, but it’s not always the main goal theses days.
@@rokkitkitfeels more organic and personally easier to get immersed this way.
I've also been eating luderick for years (they're called parore here in NZ - where they're also considered a trash fish), and you're absolutely right. They're a perfectly acceptable fish if you're not cooking any sort of fine dining (they're great deep fried/crumbed with spices, in a curry, fish pie, etc).
I've figured out a great way to hunt them too - which I enjoy even more than free diving, which is saying a lot!
At high tide they come in to less than knee deep water to feed on the algae that grows on the mangrove root stalks. It seems to only be the big ones that do this (consistently 5lb+).
I grab my pole spear and polaroids, and wade around looking/listening carefully for ripples (they often tail the surface while feeding). You can sometimes spot them as far as 100m away, then you plan your approach, stalk them quietly, line up a shot, and have a crack - all from above water.
It's a hell of a lot of fun. Not only are you in a stunning environment (mirror calm water under a mangrove canopy), but there's also an added challenge of the water/light refraction, and the stalking seems to get the adrenaline up a bit - plus you don't have a whole lot of dive gear to wash when you're done too!
Cheers mate, yea spearing them from above does sound like a lot of fun. Might look at some places to try👌
Great video mate, the harbour is my life great to see some underwater content and getting amongst the staple species for a feed. Hopefully see you out there one day 🙏🔥
Just watch the filleting on board Rod. Sydney fisheries will grab any chance to bust out a fine. I grew up in Randwick and spent a large part of my childhood between Bronte and Clovelly fishing off the rocks. Will get back to the big smoke one day.
Yea I didn’t really think about that… even if I’m eating it right then and there and Iv got the cooking stuff out? I guess I could keep the frames to show the size of the fish maybe?
@@rokkitkityou can clean them as long as it's for immediate consumption or bait 👍
great views of the city.
Love watch your vids. I really like when you come back down to Sydney a motor around familiar places!
Sorry to hear of your sick family. Best wishes
Whoa, that intro almost looked like my home town of Ottawa.
We have a newish building that looks similar to the opera house.
Instead, we have a war museum.
Great video
Rod can't wait for the island camping ones once s the weather gets better, good job on the tent 👏keep up the great work 👍 colin 🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴
Cheers from the east coast of the states! Been watching your vids for a couple years now, but I've never commented. Just want to say I absolutely love the content, I usually sit down and eat while I watch you catch and cook; it's perfect. Thanks for being a kick ass guy! Look forward to the coming adventures, keep on keeping on!
Cheers mate.. Thanks for watching🤙
nice tarp from your mum. nice work, God bless
Always puts a huge smile on my face on a Friday night when I know I have a banger of video from you Rod. Much love and respect from Washington, DC mate.
Great to see Sydney Harbour looking so healthy and with such a variety of fish. Luderick when freshly caught and cooked like that are as good as any other fish :-) Thanks again for a truly awesome video!
Sweet setup
Great vid, old grounds 🤙
boat tent looks EPIC bro. definitely need a clippy for the front part. Sick setup rod!
Might want to add a flag for camping (we don’t want you ran over at night in the mangrove!)
That color tarp may be depressing? The color of your tent really helps on dark days!
I have a little anchoring light for night time👍
you better check that LAW Rod 😂
Wicked, Rod. ❤ the channel.
With blackfish it is what they have been eating off the rocks and in most places yum. But have caught them in a creek enterance feeding around old kelp and they are as strong as
Question: Have you tried using Ikejime with your keeper catches? I ask because I have become a believer. It greatly improves fish meat texture and quality of taste. In my area top seafood restaurants are moving toward only Ikejime treated fish. Would love to see you do a Ikejime video with clean and cook to test meat texture and taste quality difference. You'll love it. Combining the brain 🧠 kill and bleeding with the act of spinal "circuit breaker" is the key to better quality fish meat and taste. Thank you, in advance, for considering this humble video content suggestion. Believer in your UA-cam channel from the other side of the planet. 👍🙏

I think the term you were looking for is "seamster" 😁 Great video as always!
Thanks for another excellent video.
I always thought red Mowies ate prawns and small fish, not weed, so I did a bit of searching. Found this:
The Morwong are found on the east coast around the Great Australian Bite to Perth in Australia from depths ranging between 10 - 400 metres and they feed at night. They can weigh up to 4.5 kilograms. The juveniles tend to swim in shallow reefs. They prey on Polychaete worms, crustaceans, molluscs and echinoderms.
A couple of other articles also said they feed on small crustaceans.
Hundred percent agree on the Luderick - I catch and eat them most months of the year and they are decent as long as you eat them under around 38 to 40cm. The big ones can be a bit weedy tasting. Also depends on where you catch them of course. The deeper into the harbour the more likely they'll taste weedy,.
Yea interesting, I guess I always assumed they had at least a partial weed diet because they have the same black lining in the gut cavity as all the other weed eating fish like luderick and drummer… maybe blue mowies are buffet as well.👍
I've bought a great Mask, snorkel and flippers & a hand spear because of you Rod, am learning once again how to spearfish 😂❤
Aargh Captain Rod, go down to the local Tavern, for a sip of Rum if ye dare 😅
Double skin the tarp...you’ll be glad you did😊👍🏻(Mostly for HOT conditions)
As always great content strongs for your parents. This is fishing at its best
san nin faai lok Rod, I hope ur Paw Paw is feeling better. Gong hei fat choy 🧧🐉
My kids and I love ur videos. Keep them coming and look forward to what 2024 brings to you and ur blue boat! Tight lines
My favourite youtuber is back 🖐🏻
Ahhh. Back to basics… Perfect! 👍👍
As usual my friend an excellent video. Thank you for taking me along on your adventures
A very exciting fishing trip, while camping on a boat, very good video, friends, keep up the good work 👍
Love the new tent mod. Very crafty ❤
Sea bream is an amazing fish. It’s very common in europe and the uk. Great eating fish
Love these videos mate. So good to see how the harbour can produce food in a simple way! Love that roller gun too looks great
Love all your adventuresvideos Mr Rod since covid with humble tent & IB. Love all your DIY on ur boat. Nothing fancy but works. 🤙🏽
He's back 🎉🎉🎉
Soo jealous of your setup! What a beautiful machine you have!
Such a sweet way to camp !
Great video! The cook up was close to where we live. My sons would have loved seeing you out there! We love the channel
Man I watch u when u had a few hundred subs now u have nearly half a million way to go man
Australia would not be Australia without the Sydney opera house. Beautiful all the way round!
I’ve got to get to Sydney!!
Looks really mellow!
Great video, Rod! Good to see you back in Sydney for a catch and cook!
I went to a Chinese Restaurant a month ago, they were selling Morwong for $179/kg. Just goes to show that they’re not a trash fish if people are willing to spend that much eating Morwong!
You should go back and say hi to the Moray eel that got your finger last time 😂
Nice video and nice work on the upgrades to the boat tent. Two suggestions, if you included a snap together buckle in the front strap you are using you could go under the anchor rope easily. Also, for the couple of spots you need more attachment points you can get the black clips like you are already using in a 25mm size, they are called c clips. Thanks for theinspiration Rod, I'm putting the deposit on a 1450 explorer next week and will be shamelessly copying your boat tent!
Great videos Rod, Just a qquestion, I fished Sydney harbour all my Younger life, I thought it was illegal to use a spear in estuarys in NSW.. I used a hand spear for crabs in Rose Bay, anyway glad you werent pinged for it. Keeep the vid;s coming. Thanks
Spearing is definitely allowed in the harbor. The harbor is not consider an estuary. There are restrictions in a few areas especially over on the north head side that you can look up, also they don’t allow you to carry spearguns through national parks, so you need to be careful if you accessing the water from land👍 but we’re all good🤙
@@rokkitkit Good to hear, tight lines.
What a view! Nice! ❤
I actually have a lot to do this morning but FIRST this❤️ #priorities!!
awesome vid! thanks....peace out
Hope your family is okay 👍
You should try the Hawkesbury and surrounds. I'd be happy to meet up at some point with my sailboat if you are ever down that way.
SICK THANKS for always making my days better i just got my boat and i live near you so i was wondering if you would want to go for a fishing trip
An actual cook up I think I could do 😂😂 looked delicious yet so simple
Fantastic simple overnighter! Would've been great if I bumped into you whilst you were in Sydney on the water though. Love your work!
New gun mate? Shes beautiful! Seeing the snorkelling around there reminds me a lot of Tassie! Cheers for another mint upload mate
nice i would love to do this!!!!
Funny you talk about blackfish, recently I was at Yamba fish co-op getting fish and chips and I asked a customer about where is the best blackfish around here and he said "you don't want blackfish, it's bait fish" and we both ordered a lovely battered blackfish, maybe he didn't know I guess.
Love your boat set up
Looks like alot of fun 😊
Love the AUSCAM as an American camo nerd
Nice to see you travelling. Sydney has loads of great boat camping options. Try the hawksberry some time.
Maybe one day you can do a catch and cook cane toad legs? It would be great to be able to remove an invasive species by eating them. Cheers
Love that set up, nice. 😊
Atta boy Rod, great video.
Ur the bad guy in finding Nemo 😂jk fish gotta swim guy gotta eat
Thanks for another cool video Rod!
Welcome back brother. Please do a catch and cook with our famous king fish. Would love to see what you can do with that fish!!!
Haha, got to catch one first😅 if the swell calms down a bit I’ll definitely give it a crack👍
Great fishing mate!
Cool tent project!
literally been stalking your page wondering when the next vid would come out haha! another great vid mate!
I gotta get me one of those Stabicraft boats
Great to hear you're a seamstress....at the age of 11 I started school in what was, until then an all girls school in Hampshire UK. As a result the school was basically set up to educate girls. It had no woodworking block, no engineering block and limited sports fields and equipment etc. It did however have a 'domestic science' block with kitchens and model flat. I was obliged to do needlework in my first two years where I'm proud to say I came top beating all the girls in my first year
It's nice to see that your hard work has paid of and you now have a deacent number of followers and a deacent income, well done:)
I love the fact that even when you hit 2M subscribers I suspect uou will still find ways to do what you do without just buying gear made for your boat.
Nice video, thank you.
