In this adventure I head to one of South East Queensland's best natural water features for an overnight hiking and fishing trip. Tune in to see if we managed to catch anything!

Great video! I loved the bush tucker scene haha bit of comedy in there but not laughing at you laughing with you! Been wanting to do an overnight hike myself but way too scared going solo. Good work! 🫡

Hahaha cheers legend! Can’t take things too seriously out there 😄
Enjoyed your video! Sure looked like a rough slog going through the rocks. I'm glad I'm not the one who brings along fishing gear and can't catch anything. Great first video!
For a first vid that was really well done, sub'd and keen to see more of your trips👌.
Great advice on bush tucker, it'll stay with me for years :) Look forward to more videos!

Cheers mate, definitely not a peanut, great stuff and good luck. On a similar journey myself and great to see others getting into it too. Subscribed and will keep an eye out for your next upload. ✌🏻
Thanks legend for being such a genuine human, cheers for the good video!
beautiful location there. some great angles and creative editing. good luck mate
The great first video, mate. Show more of the tools you use (cooking, sleeping etc.). Describe conditions. Say more about how you approached the places and what you have done. May be you route on the map. It would be good to know what maps and GPS you were using. We are from Brisbane, would be good to know from the local. Cheers :)
Brilliant presentation my friend. Shots are just great here🔥🔥
I'm Brisbane based so it's great seeing a local on here. I'll be adding you into my camping/hiking youtube rotation! :D We asked QldParks about wild camping once and we got a very round about answer haha. I haven't checked the rules on State Forests though, I assume they're the same. At the end of the day, maybe you just cop a fine here or there? Or maybe you've just popped over the border and it's all good or your on private property. I hope it works out for you because it'll be great to follow along. We'd love to avoid the booked campsites! Looking forward to more adventures, cheers! We always bring our chairs for overnight hikes, totally worth the weight.

If it's where I think it is they do allow wild camping and the collecting of firewood there. Only one in QLD to my knowledge.

@@kimberleybruce39 it’s sad that people can’t follow a leave no trace method to camping. And be sensible with camp fires. If everyone did the right thing there would be no reason to have to restrict it. I have often thought there should be permission to those with the knowledge to be careful to wild camp the way life was meant to be.

Brilliant filmography mate, nearly enjoyed that trip as much as you did. thanks for sharing.
Where is this location? Why not say.
Hey mate, awesome to see your first video! Keen to see what comes next! Those fish you saw and heard jumping would've been carp. That river, along with most of our inland rivers are totally buggered from em. The bloody things are everywhere. Pushed out most of our native fish. It's pretty heart breaking honestly. Best of luck with the videos and can't wait to see future uploads!

@@danboutdoors4584 There’s heaps of bush camping you just can’t reveal where you are on camera. I do regularly, do the right thing and take out your rubbish etc. you can even film it just don’t give away the location along the journey. The sunny coast looks identical to the rainforest in the scenic rim 😉.
Def keep going bro, watching this was so enjoyable and inspiring keep it going and we would be so happy to see more of your adventures 🙏 greetings
Great video mate , a lot of work and thought goes into a production like that . Thankyou. I'd say the fish jumping would be mullet.try a Bit of bread small hook . Keep up the good work, i hope to see more. I enjoy this style

Haha yes mate!
Congrats on your first show. It's good & we all have to start somewhere & the location is a great start to introduction to the bush. Just use what's available & affordable. You don't have to explain yourself, we in the outdoors community don't judge mate. Be adventurous & enjoy mother nature. You do you.!! May we suggest wood saw to cut & harvest fire wood. Less energy usage is advise when in the bush alone. Great scenery, whereabouts in S.Queensland? With that turbo stove you might want to dig a little hole to stabilise it or even put some rocks around it so it doesn't topple. Safety is number one rule when camping alone. That foldable chair is a great comfort item. How much does it weigh? Do you carry a bushcraft knife or multitool?. How heavy is your backpack fully loaded? Great first vid mate. Again congrats, got yourself a new sub from Christmas Island. Stay safe mate.

Only thing I’d advise is you mentioned about your feet, the cactus and rolling your ankles, grab some mid top walking boots man. Your feet will thank you!
