00:01Look at the size of that trout. Best boaty going.
00:05Magic sauce. Bang. It looks good.
00:11That's a big mackey.
00:20Well, good morning.
00:30The sun has just come up. I can just see it over there.
00:35We've had a fair bit of rain.
00:41So, we'll see what happens. This might pass. Otherwise, we're just going to have to go with whatever the weather
00:46gives us today.
00:47So, stay tuned.
00:50This might be what the day looks like.
00:54We don't know. There's no reception out here.
00:56So, we only went off the weather predictions that we could look at before we left.
01:02And now, we just sort of got to roll with it.
01:05Everyone always tells me to get Starlink, but I kind of like it.
01:08Not knowing what's going on.
01:12Hi, everyone. I'm Pat.
01:14We are out here, guys. It's been years since Lulu and I have made a bit together.
01:19Look, we'll just save you the dramas. It was rough. It was a terrible run out here and we haven't
01:23slept.
01:24I'm sunburnt. I'm sick. I was seasick.
01:26It rained, so this whole deck was drenched.
01:29Oh, no.
01:30So, this is our kill tank with the spare fuel in it.
01:35And we've got a fair bit of water in there, guys.
01:39Oh, my God.
01:45Stop with it.
01:47Stop with it.
01:51I reckon we had two squalls last night.
01:53And this is not all, like, properly waterproof.
01:56So, there was a fair bit of rain on the deck.
01:57But hopefully, this bladder hasn't leaked.
02:03Fresh water. There's no salt in that, either.
02:05Yeah, that's full, fresh rainwater.
02:07So, it should be sweet.
02:14Probably gonna have to do this every day around here.
02:18If it keeps raining.
02:22Oh, nearly done.
02:23That's a 150 liter kill tank.
02:25I reckon it was, like, mostly full.
02:27There would have been,
02:28close to 100 liters of fresh water in there.
02:49And the whole goal of today is we want to get a fish.
02:51But we're working against this shocking weather.
02:54There's a big squall that might be coming in.
02:56Lot of wind, but we're hiding behind the island.
02:59Liana wants me to get a smallest size fish for the, like,
03:02Vietnamese-style recipe we're gonna do on the island a little bit later.
03:05So, she's gonna be boaty.
03:06You can see how swelly and rough it is.
03:10But, it's a nice shallow reef edge over there.
03:12So, I'm gonna jump in.
03:13See if I can get us a fish.
03:15And hopefully, we can cook something up this afternoon.
03:17Fingers crossed.
03:18A nice, big moo.
03:20Or a nice trout or something like that.
03:22We'll see us in the water.
03:36We good onesse.
03:41We'll see you next time.
03:43I'll see you next time.
03:43How?
04:03She's pretty fortunate.
04:05The ultimate is about the balance of ice.
04:30I think he's already got us a fish.
04:47He's a common trout but their colors are absolutely stunning beautiful little dinner-sized trouty.
05:28Oh that's a great trout, it's not the best shot but look at the size.
05:32Because of that trout there's a bit of run here so I'm about to lose your butt.
05:37That's a friggin awesome trout.
05:40I'll get you to whack it in there.
05:44Well this is not what I was looking for, this is actually a massive trout.
05:48Very happy with this fish but the fillets are a bit big.
05:51I don't know if you guys can see in there but I'd jump in and then I'd lose the vis
05:54real quick.
05:55And then we moved spot and this is obviously where I shot this big fish and then a few sharks
05:59came in but pretty quickly the vis just went to crap again.
06:02So we're really like battling the conditions out here, it's really not prime.
06:06I'm not sure, we're thinking of just heading back into the shelter of that lagoon, figuring out a plan but
06:11it's really, it's putrid out here.
06:13Like it's, it's the worst I've ever seen it but you can't be mad with a big coral trout.
06:18That's a, he was like about 60, that's an epic fish but we'll get him in the ice, figure out
06:24what we're gonna do.
06:25Honestly it's, the one time I take the girlfriend out.
06:31The one time I come out, I think I'm a bad luck child, so.
06:34Shit.
06:35This is, it's honestly like, she gets to watch all the footage of the trips I do.
06:39I'm like, I'll take you there babe, I promise.
06:42It's okay, just glad to be out here.
06:51There's a little knotty, on the front of the boat, he's probably gonna spook but I'll see if I can
06:56film him.
07:07They're such a cool bird, they live on the islands around here.
07:10I always know when I'm heading out to the reef, I start seeing these guys flying around, I know I'm
07:14getting close to the islands.
07:16They're such a sick bird.
07:20Have a go of this guys.
07:22It's like a brand new day, that wind's dropping out, the sun's out, the rain's gone.
07:26We are very excited and we're very hungry so, we've set up the dropping board I guess.
07:32What are we cooking up Lulu?
07:33So right now we're gonna start with the sauce, so it's a traditional Vietnamese dipping sauce.
07:39I've never made this sauce before but I've had it in a lot of Vietnamese dishes and it's, love it.
07:44I'll just run you through the ingredients, we've got caster sugar, a chilli, we've got fresh coriander, garlic, lime, some
07:52fish sauce and then we'll pop it all in the jar and give it a shake.
07:56So we're gonna get those ingredients in, I've got a, it's in this esky, I'll grab it out after but
08:01there's a nice coral trout, I'll whack one fillet off and we'll use that for the cook up.
08:06Also, it's called Nook Chum, I believe. I really apologise if I'm getting that wrong.
08:12But yeah, it's a traditional Vietnamese dipping sauce, super popular but we're just eyeing off the measurements because.
08:19Yeah, that's the rule, when you're cooking on the boat there's no measurements.
08:28Got a bit of water warmed up for this too.
08:36We'll do the fresh coriander last.
08:40Mmm, it smells unreal.
08:41Yeah, the flavours.
08:44So I'm just popping the fish sauce in now, there's a couple of ways to do it but I'm going
08:47to start with about two to three tablespoons.
08:54Although this isn't a true tablespoon.
08:58Gorgeous.
08:58That's four.
09:00Start with that.
09:04Lime juice.
09:07Go on, use your mussels.
09:09Yeah, it smells like restaurant quality.
09:14Water going in?
09:15Yes.
09:15Alright, tell me when.
09:18That's good.
09:20Yeah.
09:21This jar's a bit big but we don't want too much so it's just the two of us.
09:24Alright.
09:26I'm taking over your recipe here.
09:27That's okay.
09:29Coriander in.
09:30Alright.
09:31Can you see?
09:34That's a leaky jar.
09:40Magic sauce.
09:45Mmm.
09:46Is that it?
09:47Oh my god.
09:48I love this.
09:52That's really good.
09:53How we're going to do this dish is we're going to cook a fillet of trout.
09:56It's going to go over a bed of rice and then that sauce is going to go on top.
10:00So I'm going to get the trout out, slap a fillet off.
10:13Does it get much better than that?
10:14That is just a beautiful, delicious coral trout.
10:18Amazing.
10:23There we go.
10:24Okay, so now we're going to prep the fish.
10:26So we're going to add flour, some turmeric, pepper and the secret ingredient, lemongrass.
10:49Is that rain?
10:53Oh god.
10:54I think I just felt a rain drop.
10:56A bit of chili oil.
10:58I'll get a bit more of the oil.
11:03Oh no, there's a squall coming.
11:06We're going to cook this fish right now.
11:08Here we go.

17:53I'm going to go to the next video.
17:58I've got a monkey!
18:00I've got a monkey!
18:11Do I drive?
18:23I've got a monkey!
18:28Oh, yes!
18:37Oh!
18:38Oh!
18:41Oh!
18:55Oh!
19:21Yes!
19:23Woo!
19:24Watch your feet!
19:25Oh, my God!
19:28Yes!
19:29Woo!
19:31Oh!
19:32Oh, my God!
19:36Sorry, buddy!
19:39This is awesome, man.
19:40I've been dreaming of this moment for so long.
19:42I had that flasher.
19:43The ground was looking good.
19:44I'd missed the mackerel just before.
19:46And, oh, I was devastated.
19:48I'd been missing trout, missing Mackie.
19:51And then kind of drifted off the ground a bit.
19:53And the run was pretty tough.
19:54And I just saw a little bit of bait.
19:56And I was like, why not drop the flasher down?
20:00And so that sunk, dove down on it.
20:02And obviously you saw him come in, took a shot, and he just ran.
20:07And there were sharks around.
20:08I honestly didn't think we were going to land him.
20:10But look at that.
20:11Look at the mouth on him.
20:13That is the Spanish mackerel.
20:14One of my favorite fish.
20:16One of the coolest fish to hunt.
20:18Look at the colors on him.
20:19They're big.
20:19They're gnarly.
20:20They're fast.
20:22Look at that.
20:23Hard work does pay off.
20:24That's a big Mackie.
20:26Best boatie going.
20:28Shout out to Lulu.
20:29Holy crap.
20:29I was like yelling at her.
20:31Come, come, come.
20:32And then I was like, watch the gun.
20:33And then I was screaming at the shark.
20:35And she probably didn't know what the hell was going on.
20:37But let me hold him up.
20:38So he can get the length.
20:44He's a good fish.
20:45Obviously they get way bigger than that.
20:47But man, that is a good fish.
20:51Any day of the week.
20:53Stoked.
20:55Yes.
20:56Alright, hold him up.
20:58Yeah.
21:00There we go.
21:01The big Mackie.
21:03Yeah.
21:04It's huge.
21:06My goodness.
21:08If you ever have an esky that stinks.
21:12Check the mouth of your trout.
21:14Because sometimes there's a whole fish inside him.
21:20Look at that.
21:21That's obviously been smashed by that trout not too long ago.
21:25We're parked up real close to the island here.
21:26There's a bit of wind.
21:27It's not too bad.
21:28But that sun's literally just going down.
21:31And Lulu is chopping up the rest of the ingredients for the meal tonight.
21:38So cucumber.
21:40Cucumber, onion, cherry tomatoes.
21:42Yes.
21:42Bang.
21:45Does it get much better than that?
21:51I love some ginger.
21:53I've been really loving it with the coconut milk.
21:56Because I don't usually have it with that.
21:58But...
21:59...
22:00...
22:01...
22:01...
22:02...
22:02...
22:02...
