      Thanks Chris, that’s what it’s all about mate, seeing others going to the places you have been too and getting out and about and enjoying themselves.
      I’ll have a couple more cracks at the tinny camping I reckon. Love it.
      But I don’t think I’d be any good at a catch and cook segment. 🤣🤣
      Cheers for the inspiration to get out and try it, hopefully we do cross paths again, could rack your brain for hours.

    Loved it, Gav. Felt like I was there with you. A very relaxing watch. Appreciate the editorial details - no pressure, but the cuts to the drone footage that match the soundtrack, and the little bits of fast Gav packing the tinny certainly added to the experience. 'Beer and whisky - always risky; whisky and beer - never fear!' (Personally, I've never had much success applying that guideline.) Thanks and good on you.

    • @aguyandhistroopy
      @aguyandhistroopy  10 місяців тому

      Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed the video, it’s hard to put 30 mins of drone footage in to a 30 min video if you know what I mean. Sometimes cutting it to the beat makes it a little better, some times not.
      Never heard the beer and whiskey sayings, might have to put it into practise… but like yourself, don’t think it will change much.

    Top one mate. I have been watching Chris for years. He's pretty good. On the subject of shelters, 2 hoochies joined together will give you a pretty good footprint. They don't leak (well mine didn't, and I have slept under one for over 30 years), easy to put up and take down and pack up to nothing. Just remember to take plenty of cord, some sand pegs (for beach camping) and your laughing. Just gotta get you some fishing mojo now. Great to see ya spirits have risen, it put a smile on my dial.
    Bloody lovely sun rise, just magic. Heading to the VHC in April after a short D-Max 4x4 course, probably around Dargo area not sure on dates yet. Balls (neighbour) is interested too. Would like it to be in NSW, but, can't carry a chainsaw in the vehicle going through a National Park, so Vic it will be.

      It’s a cracking place Coota, lived there for a while and spent every holiday there as I grew up. Very close to my heart.
      That would have been a sketchy time back when the fires were coming through. Our holiday house survived which I’m grateful for, still be able to continue to visit Coota for a few more years yet.
      Sandbars as in down by the camping ground? Nah, they will never do anything about that, to green down there. But the entrance is right over at Bastion Point now, back like in the 1980’s. It’s good for getting outside now.

      @aguyandhistroopy the locals should know better. They'll have everyone illegally camping around the lake. Perhaps camp on your boat like other youtube people.
      I got that it was tongue in cheek, but it sends a message to dodgy people who abuse the system. We all need to look after and respect these beautiful places...
