    Fiordland Light River 2025

    We had an epic trip into Fiordland this year despite average weather. I have finally got the video ready for viewing. A lot of hours have gone into putting this together, a reminder why I slowed the hunting content on youtube a bit. She’s a big job!

    Heres our adventure.. cheers.

    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    that was a great watch, loved the short concise commentaries about where you went and what you guys did, no waffling, no sponsor rubbish, just hunting, good on ya, and you guys sure did make the most of the weather windows- well done!

    Loved the “if you get this block next ballot call me” fantastic attitude to help folks get around the block learning from your experience.

    A really positive and honest attitude towards what the trust is trying to achieve …

    Really enjoyed your chief , bread ,bacon wrapped goose breast …salami and cheese …damn what a trip.

    Mean. Thanks so much for the time you put into this. What an adventure. Well done. Makes me think that trail runners would be fine in there as everything is gonna get wet, including big, heavy leather boots.
