The yellowtail kingfish, seriola lalandi, reigns supreme in the south. They’re a top order predator throughout much of their range, and a primary target for southern sportfishermen.
Touring Fisho
COME IN SPINNER
High speed spinning is an extremely simple, yet undeniably effective fish catching system. It comes down to heaving weighty lures into the surf or from the ocean rocks, then ripping them back at a cracking pace in order to elicit strikes from revved-up pelagic fish.
CRACKING THE CODE
Lake Monduran is a sprawling freshwater impoundment formed when the Kolan River was dammed in the 1970s. It’s also one of the best waterways in the country to get connected to a truly big freshwater barramundi.
BE A ROCK LEGEND
As innocuous as going for a fish might sound, rock fishing, specifically, is undoubtedly at the more daring end of the spectrum. It’s one of our riskiest national pastimes, according to government reports.
SURF’S UP!
Soaking a bait in the surf has got to be one of the most enjoyable ways to spend a summer afternoon with the sand between your toes. Bringing a haul of fresh fillets is a tasty bonus.
READING ESTUARIES
Much like 4WDing, fishing is an activity where an intimate appreciation of your environment is critical. Taking note of seemingly insignificant factors around you can play a big part in the outcome of your outing.

Awesome rig. Longer wheelbase feels great off and on road. #littlelegend @suzukiqueensland

It's been a real honour working with the team from @oricomuhfcb and local indigenous artist Daniel Evans from @walkabout_warriors_ on the launch video for this beautiful new UHF handheld radio, the Walkabout, featuring hand-painted artwork by Daniel.
I got to spend the day with him talking about art, the medicine that the bush is for us all, and how important it is to stay connected.
Thanks to everyone at Oricom for your support and trust.
Please go check out @walkabout_warriors_ where you can learn more about Daniel's work to support youth in communities, and see more of his great artwork.
The new Walkabout is available in @supercheap_auto and @bcf.australia across Australia 👣

“The future remains uncertain and so it should, for it is the canvas upon which we paint our desires. Thus always the human condition faces a beautifully empty canvas. We possess only this moment in which to dedicate ourselves continuously to the sacred presence which we share and create.”

I don’t know what triple-oaked means. I don’t know why it’s special if my whiskey is ‘elemental aged’.
But I do know this stuff is smoother than windswept dunes.

Living the dream somewhere between Morocco and Western Australia.
Over the years, if you're serious about escapism like we are, you end up going through a lot of gear, trying out every possible permutation of each necessity and luxury against the elements.
I've come to a place now where I can use the best gear available, and it's made my journey lighter and easier.
The new Wolfpack Pro boxes from @frontrunneraustralia embody the same indestructible ethos as the Cruiser, plus they are waterproof and stackable.
I am thoroughly impressed with the @thebushcompany 270XT awning. It is everything I always wanted: simplicity to use, rugged and reliable, and easier to pack away than any other awning I've ever had.
I never thought I'd be a rooftop camper person. I love a swag. But the new Odyssey from @jamesbaroud_aunz has just about wholly converted me. It's basically everything I love about swags (airflow, protection from the elements, lightning fast setup and packdown) with a better view.
