WASN’T MEANT TO BE

Up at 5AM for a simple day out on Western Port no big expectations, just getting out on the water before the season slows down. Conditions weren’t great… Dirty water, slow fishing, and the whiting just weren’t there. We pushed through and made the most of it: 6 flathead (kept for a feed) 1 squid A fresh mackerel for sashimi 5 salmon for bait Turned it into a proper day and even better, fresh flathead for breakfast the next morning with panko crumbs, eggs, and homemade chips. We stayed out into the night chasing gummies… Lost a solid one right at the boat (lesson learnt), then hooked into a big 7-gill not long after. That’s fishing not always perfect, but always worth it. Even managed to land a couple of gummies for our neighbours Neil and Jenny as a thank you for helping us out at Mansfield Resort. 📸 Our Adventures Cover: ✔️ Camping in Australia ✔️ Bush cooking and catch & cook meals ✔️ Fishing for fresh water fish, gummy sharks, snapper, whitting and Aussie salmon ✔️ Boating, off-grid camping & drone footage ✔️ Family-friendly outdoor fun 🔥 If you love real camping, fishing fails (and wins), and just getting stuck into nature with the fam — hit that subscribe button and join us! 👇 Let’s Connect! 👍 Like the video if you enjoy it 💬 Comment your favourite camping spot or fishing tip 🔔 Subscribe for more weekly outdoor adventures #campingAustralia #dronefishing #familyadventure #kiwisAdventure #catchandcook #bushcooking #outdoorvlog #fishingvlog #campingwithkids #Australiaoutdoors #campmeals #boatinglife #shallowinlet #lakeeildon #gummysharkfishing #campingfails
