The Reason The Sardine News Went OFFLINE Four Days #boats #fishing #umzimkulu #estuary #tractor #retrieval

good morning internet ha ha ha ha okay
how’s it everybody welcome back Sardine News
on my way to fetch my brother
and there’s no reason why I can’t
record a video while I’m driving
same as talking to Chelsea
so he’s gonna start a surf camp today
the westerly is here
the east that blew us to pieces yesterday 50 knots
hey it’s gone been replaced by a west
so basically I we got a boat
a very nice boat it’s a ace craft
it’s a monster two 85s that’s all I can say
so we’re gonna take it to launch it and straight away
sink sinks obviously
you know
specially with me around so we float the boat again
pump all the water out and get it going like it
now it’s working off we go fishing and aye
it’s cool aye
so first night Callum and and his brother Kieren and ous
they fish the night
so they they catch a few fish and then
and now they are had enough
they’ve been camping on the side of the
on the river
where there’s some MUD where the boat could park anyway
so they had enough so now it’s my turn
get all warm and the rain comes in
yay yay yay yay me and Chelsea was stuck in that cabin
things are bad
yeah we survived
but I had my feet out the blerry cabin
and then obviously it gets wet
there’s no chance of a computer
at this stage of the game
in the morning I had a customer
this is the very important part
he pulls in but he he doesn’t pay
ha ha ha you don’t catch fish if you don’t pay
I’m telling you they
I can see they got a this attitude
you know and I
they don’t wanna pay cause the weather
so I throw my camera
hey man
I don’t know what to say except play the tape
play the tape play the tape
play the tape so the camera hits the water
now it’s going down here’s a garrick
and just by the way
the mullets are all jumping out of the water
all around the boat
that’s why I got the camera in the first place
so now here we got these two guys
they’ve got their own special bait
they bring from Durban you know what I’m talking about
and that’s not what Garrick eats Garrick
don’t eat those things
these oaks are miserable and the rain gets worse
so I say let’s move
and the wind comes and it’s a horrible scene
but they can’t get to grips with it
you know they just don’t they don’t wanna be there
I take them back drop them off
so he never came fishing again
and that video
I don’t know it’s 20 by the way
I’ll count to 20 Garrick if you know
I’ll go home now and Callum and the ous back down
and they have another strenuous night
this is weather’s bad enough
I mean it’s it’s October at it’s worst
I get a phone call in the morning
I must go and relieve now
I’ve had a night off
you and Chelsea have been sleeping thing
I got a message please call me
there’s bad shit going on
that was my worst kind of message with a boat around
you know
eventually I get I get Callum that he said Sean
I’ve just seen her catch the 30 kilo KOB ha ha ha
the East is pumping by now
and Callum’s adrenaline goes through the roof
he gets adrenalized throws the anchor
and he runs across there with his big stick
and he starts casting cast No. 20
he goes vas like big time VAS hey
he’s bending hey
and then the fish come off something broke
so now he’s walking back to the boat
and he has that adrenaline
overload that I get all the time
and he collapsed hey boom
same as me he’s done hey
the bridge workers up the top there
they’re check him this is the second
this is the first time they help
they saved us today um he’s done ha ha he’s gone hey
and while he’s gone
ous are looking after him and giving him water and
or giving him everything they can
like medical
the boat drift away towards the rocks on the far side
now he recovers
he puts all his stuff down and he swims for the boat
gets on the boat
gets the motor is going
comes back there and now his phone’s gone
now I’ve got no contact with him anyway
I get there
he’s got all the symptoms of hypothermia over exposure
no exposure alright to the elements
adrenaline overload
and there’s one more thing I think he had as well
but he didn’t eat much you know
and it’s just too much living on a boat flat out
you know even in a cabin
now we’re gonna take this stupid boat out of the water
ah
the boat’s full of water
and it’s like an Acecraft with two 85
this is so heavy anyway
this lekka a guy Louis and his son Mike
wow they’re pulling with this cool Jeep and
and our bakkie’s only a two wheel drive with a diff lock
which doesn’t help but it’s got power to pull it
but it’s not a beach thing
three hours
we just get stuck cause at that place there
the top part is sand and the bottom part is MUD
but we couldn’t take a boat anywhere else and
and load it up somewhere else
it was just it had to come out the water
and we were out there anyway
this guy had a winch and we suffered suffered
suffered
eventually another guy Andreas came along
he also gets a free boat ride for his help
and he had a Mitsubishi 4 by 4
which is quite a tractor by the way
and then luckily I went finally
my brain came working and I found a tractor
at the bridge workers
they are coming running around the corner
as I get to the bridge workers
I just collapsed on the floor
on the sand I see I need help
and that’s all of them just like their eyes light up
next thing I’m running back
I don’t know where this energy comes from
but when you’re retrieving a boat
with the tide coming in
and all the cars getting drowned
next thing I’m running back with a tractor behind me
Yay
get that anchor rope
spin it four times
put it on and we get that boat out and we
we finished up so that’s where I’ve been
that’s why there’s no Sardine News
I’ll tell you one thing
Callum and I are going fishing today
I’ve said that before me and Chelsea get on the boat
and the other guys go home and have a shower and
