Please stay in the cave and survive for a month, if possible. I know for a fact that I would definitely tune in daily or weekly. @Strictandfran please consider this if it's even REMOTELY POSSIBLE. I know that I'm not the only one who wants to see how much you 2 can can turn that cave into a home.

@@travisyoung3179 I’m guessing because it was a left handed reel and Strick is right handed
Fran being back in Europe and taking Strick with her. Nice one. Might there be a little trip to Italy following this one? Who knows. Ty for the adventures.

Dear Strick & Fran, My Dad and I love your videos. It was our special bonding time watching your videos together. He passed away on the 11th of September. You guys inspired us both and he always said how much joy you guys have him through your videos. I just wanted to say thank you so much for all the joy you have given us, your videos are truly inspiring and have a wonderful message. Much love ❤️

Very warm welcome Fran and Strick to the Nordic countries, it is a honor to have you here. ❤❤❤ I am from neighboring Sweden just outside the capital. Your second fish in today’s video was an Atlantic pollock. 😀
I love to watch your videos to help me relax at night, so I can go to sleep. I've actually started trying to look into other channels like your own, and other than other B2B channels, I can't really find anything as good. There are a lot of copycats, I am finding, but none of them are as smart, informative, or likeable as Strick and Fran, or any of the other B2B adventure channels. In fact, some of your competition, though not all, are just insufferably bad at what they do. None of them are as good as your channel. Keep up the good work.

B2B videos literally help me to sleep at night, love to watch your videos 🫶🏽👍 relaxing, calming
Fran & Jack, you can also eat the beautiful purple flower tops of the chives, they're delicious as well & give some added color to dishes & salads. Norway is such a beautiful country!! Love your channel, thanks for taking us along on your adventures!! 😊
You two are amazing. And brave. Complete change of scenery. Stay safe, stay warm. Can't wait for the next one.
These are always so enjoyable. thank you for sharing your adventures with us! Hope you guys aren't too stressed trying to churn out videos all the time. I know it can be very time consuming and draining if there isn't a good balance. Please take care of yourselves, your mental health and life balance. Sending over plenty of love and many many more adventures.
I am the guy you met in Berlin on bikes a month back ( Rob). Was a super nice surprise to meet you two on my doorstep and not some remote island somewhere. Stay warm and keep making these awesome videos!!
I love your guys travel!! This should be an amazing series. Stay safe!!!
So nice to see you in a totally different environment, equally stunning like your tropical videos. ❤. Thanks for uploading.
Great to see you back with new and unique adventure. Enjoy and have fun.
Strick, if you just unscrew the handle on that reel you can flip it over and reel it forward instead of backward. My favorite reels. ;)

These videos have been a god send this winter I suffer from depression and this stuff keeps me going, I'm glad your all about mental health because unfortunately alot of people who call themselves m8s don't seem to always get how difficult it can be so I'm glad you're sharing information about places like better help. Anyway I did get out to cast a line yesterday off my local pier but no joy and even though cold it was nice to be out for an hour. Will you go back n spend time doing some stuff with the Norway native people as they have a rich tradition of hunting and fishing skills with clever tactics..
Oh, this is gonna be incredible and mystic, the landscape, light and wildlife is insane beautiful ! Wow, Strick & Fran, nice to see ya in the ARCTIC Thanks for another wonderful episode with stunning footages and adventures events ! 🙏👍💙!💙
It’s so cool that you guys travel, showing people where you go, how to survive if the worst happens.
SO EXCITED FOR THIS NEW ADVENTURE !!
I like your Adventures in the freezing cold and the tropical Australia. God Bless you Strick and Fran
The big Reindeer was Dancer(he's the show off). The other 2 were Prancer and Vixen.

Great video guys! Really enjoyed the change of scenery. Lots of new challenges in this environment. Best of luck there!
Nice to see you both somewhere different and definitely out of your comfort zone, nice to see a beach with no plastic on it too !
Thanks for checking us along your adventure.🙂
Loving this series and change of scenery!
Your camera work and narratives are amazing. Thanks for taking us along.
I already love this new series. Stay warm.❤😊
What a flippin' contrast to what you have been doing! Very cool. Thank you for sharing.
Love your comment about "freezing cold" in northern Norway. Look at it this way: just a bit chilly, the sun up until midnight and the fishing catch by far less than what you are used in tropical Australia - your home turf. That's the way it is in colder climates, but yet some fish thriving in the waters and wild edible plants and berries, but definitely no coconuts. Feel blessed with the sunny weather for over two-thirds of the summer days.
Great video. Such an interesting change for you two. Thanks!
Great to see you back guys, looking forward to the trip
Hi Strick, Hi Fran..Thanks for another video 🙂
Love you guys, awesome, thanks for the tour & sight seeing trip
Changing it up, super fun! Thanks for the new adventure!
Cod are delicious, the second fish was a whiteing, also tasty, the third fish was a haddock, very tasty fish, just come back from fishing in Norway, there are monster fish in the fjords
I was raised in cold weather in Montana USA so know what you’re saying about wind. Thanks for sharing beauty of Norway where my family started. Stay safe n warm!!
Spectacular breathtaking scenery 🎉
Gorgeous scenery!!!
Wonderful episode! I felt like I was there with you and even felt the chill
I'm glad ya'll are doing this, I never could.😊
It's a big jump from tropical Australia to Arctic Norway. Very impressed that you're getting outside your comfort zone (and my comfort zone)
always exciting to watch you two
Great new adventure, good quality clothing essential for survival here mostly to keep out the wind. Much of the sea shore can be foraged, samphire, seaweed, sugar kelp, sea beet, looks like tough spinach. Cod is a great tasting fish, as with the silver Haddock with the black thumbprint behind the gills, beautiful smoked. Have a great time and keep warm❤
Change is good, looking forward to this adventure. 😊
Great videos guys. The unknown fish you returned was a Whiting. Good eating when big enough.
WOW! they're magical! those Moose! stunning
I look forward to this every Sunday. Love you guys.

Awesome to see you guys do something different!
You guys are the best!
23:58 - Halllliiibooooootttttt!
We enjoyed the change in scenery. The cave painting really got my wife's interest. And ive read several of the comments with the fishiyrod and have to agree. It will make it easier if you flip it. But if you're righty then reeling with your left is still the better way to go, generally. Certainly looking forward to the next episode.
That is such a beautiful place. You guys are living the dream.
Strick on the spinning rod the reel is down. The rod is best loaded that way. Sometimes you do it right. Love you guys.
So glad you finally snagged a fish for your dinner.. it looked delicious.. Fran did a great job with the spices .. liked watching this new episode and a completely different location.. stay warm 🤙🏼
A new adventure. Amazing place. Our world i soo beatiful. Go for it guys. Blessings.
Thanks!
So glad you guys are choosing new locations in Europe. Should be great, this one was.
Great change of pace, however, we are spring and fall people, and living in Tennessee USA., we go north when the temps get above 90 and south when the temps get below 50. However, watching it sure beats having to experience it... 🙃
their antlers are incredible!
Hi Jack, hi Fran ! Awesome video, cool change of scenery. I just discovered your videos weeks ago and got totally hooked ! Binge watched all of it in days. Being myself a wild camper/survivalist and former free soloist from Brasil i'm particularly thankful for the survival challenges, very useful infos ! One tip though, please PLEASE be careful with the wild moose and elks ! They can be very dangerous and territorial. Maintain a safe distance especially if they have cubs. Enjoy Norway ! love and greets from grey berlin :)))
Fran's feet in that water brrrr .absolutely stunningly beautiful place rain deer 🦌 gives that feeling of untouched land of times gone by
What a great video! Thanks
WOW. Nice to you in the Arctic. I bet that temps of water, in those little creeks made those toes on the Ausszie and the little Aussi'talian. Well done.
You two are ultra brave camping out there with the bears! Beautiful scenery!

Eurasian brown bears are not much of a threat in Norway. There are very few and they are incredibly shy and wary of humans. The cold is far more dangerous than the bears.
Love the new place Awesome. 👍👍👍👍🙏
Very well done!
Hello , hello . I was surprised to see your location but looking forward to learning more about in that region . With the smaller cod being hooked , I believe I could find a way to make a meal out of it . Due to those strong winds beating down on you . The mountainous horizon is definitely a view to behold . Of course , the first thing , well maybe the second , I noticed was the lack of trash washed up on the beach areas so that's definitely a plus right there . Alright , y'all be safe . See ya' next week .
Hey guys .2nd fish you caught was a whiting .... wasn't a bad sized fish excellent eating

I'm cold just listening to the wind. 😅 Love that you changed the scene for the new series. If people like it, you'll be able to go anywhere and know your audience will go along. 😁😍🙏🏻
Norway is a long way from Outback. Have fun in the new environment guys! Stay safe🤙
First time I’ve seen you both wear shoes! Love seeing you both enjoy a new experience.😊
Just the side note. Those are Caribou the difference between Caribou and Reindeer is what side of the fence they are on. Or if they have an ear tag. Ear tags usually mean they're on the inside of the fence
Nice new adventure. Quite a difference from a tropical island.
Oh my, this is funny to see you in Scandinavia. Welcome to the cold climate, wind and small fish! :-) We dont have your amazing big colorfull fish so better not throw anything away. The Salmon and the Herring a great!. Thank you so much for all your shows and your dedication. You are my heroes at sea. Really such a joy to watch your shows. If you ever come to Copenhagen. (Denmark) I will be glad to show Hamlets Castle and more. Hope you get something to eat up there...
Great adventure
Nothing better to drink than glacier melt water. Beautiful. Amazing seeing the reindeer so close in proximity. The fish you caught after the Cod was a Whiting I believe. A member of the trout species.

Trout such as brown trout are Salmo trutta, which belong to the salmon genus, that fish after the Cod was not a type of salmon therefore not related to trout. Closer to the Sillago genus which look similar to Whiting in Australia.

If you are freezing cold...put some socks, shoes and a head cover. It will help take the chill off.
For a start on keeping warm - keep your head covered :)
Strick showing how crazy Australians like to wind with their dominant hand and fight with their weak hand. Takes 10 mins tops to learn to wind left handed, it's even easier than winding backwards lmao
"It's freezing" yet no fog breath. Yep, warm climate people !! You guys have all the fun !!
I’m so jealous of y’all going to Norway I’ve always wanted to go!!! Anyways safe travels, and have fun!!!!!! Enjoy the views for me and keep sharing the videos!
Beautiful ❤ now I can related with the conditions. Love the part with the Halibutttttt, reminded me of another Ch by Daniel Mann
Absolutely joy legends what a beautiful spot (bar the cold😂) new this was going to be a ripper serious, thank you 👍👍

First time i see someone fish reeling backwards, whatever works, kool spot, enjoy and be safe!
