Man after a long stressful day at work your videos are the perfect way for me to unwind Scotty. Thanks for everything you do and the effort you put into this channel mate. So many of us here appreciate it mate. P.S take me with you on a trip!
-
Never disappoints, mate. After being inspired by your adventures, I'm off on my first overnighter on Saturday. Thanks for the motivation.
-
Im still amazed to see Fjällräven clothings being worn by so many outside of Sweden. The brand is quality but when i was a kid the brand wasnt that big. It was for swedes. Feeling proud.
-
Watching this during a quiet moment at work, what an extreme of differences. Looks so peaceful and calm!
-
Bread is a little thick but it looks good. Gotta get your flatbread skills built up while you are at home so you can do it properly even with the inconsistent heat and small pan when camping.
-
Amazing country and vid Scotty , next time a fish takes you under a snag/rock let out some slack line and quiet often they will swim out . Yew 😂

Nailing those trout! Yes, those CNOC bags are the best. I like the fact that one can open the end of the bag with the handle/slide closure and easily fill the bag. Place your filter of choice on the other end and filter away. I bought two of the 3 liter bags and keep one in my kit at all times. I'll just hang the bag up if able and place my wide mouth water bottle under the filter end and go about other camp chores while keeping an ear out for the progress of the pour. When I don't hear the water falling in the bottle anymore I know it's time to check it. ;-) Great location btw! The American 19th century woodsman, George Washington Sears a.ka. Nessmuk wrote in his book, "Woodcraft and Camping" that simple ingredients and simple cooking of them is best for the outdoorsman. ( like your trout and potatoes) George was born the next town over from where I live and grew up playing amongst the local Nipmuc native American tribe camped on the nearby, Webster Lake (Chargoggagoggmanchauggagoggchaubunagungamaugg in their native tongue) in Webster, MA. As a young adult he moved to Wellsboro, PA. I don't know if you've ever read his book, but I find it one that I repeatedly read not only for the useful information contained in its pages, but it always takes my mind back to a time when areas of America were a much wilder place with far fewer people and much more game and fish. The book is available on Amazon in paperback for very short money. Great video!

Hey mate love the show you should’ve let the dough rest abit (in a bowl or plate covered in cling wrap) after rolling it out and it would’ve been perfect!
-
Spectacular country and the changeable weather made it even more beautiful. One of your best videos yet!
-
26:35. To quote Tom Gleisner - "That looks like an ingredient".
-
Great to see how well you are progressing as a fisherman, Scotty. congratulations!
-
Thats my favourite creek! Well done for hiking down and back. Gods country for sure.
-
Classics “look at that flow rate” “gin and tonic time”
-
the comment about us flying through space on this rock with other bits of rock flying about, they are bound to hit and how fragile we are. And then you say how nice that sun feels. Makes you appreciate life. Best of luck from England.
-
Those big pools with the scrubby areas are where you want to fish mate, for that situation you could try extending your leader and adding a float or a second bigger fly, floating it down into there from upstream. Good to see you getting some catches, those big fella's are hiding in those big pools. Looking forward to seeing you catch a donkey one day! Also, 11:33, the bottom of that fall- bigger fish will sit there.
-
A stunning portrait of the High Country......what a pristine and exceptional part of the world . Your gentle footprint on this land sends a message to those that follow can respect this place as you do. Some really beautiful photography reminiscent of some Scottish Highland streams where fishing is not so free ! Taking one for dinner is also a great reminder to those trophy hunters who measure success by the fish in their bag!
-
Great video. Thanks for sharing Scotty.
-
Another wonderful outdoor adventure Scotty! Looks wonderful out there. Food looks delicious though
-
Another great video, what an amazing trip. So many trout.

Best meal he made so far.
