Spear-caught dinner joins Strick and Fran's ocean-living journey

Two new uploads pair Back 2 Basics fishing with a crocodile encounter, while Sailing Across the Top reaches Day 100.

Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.

"Catching dinner Back 2 Basics style 🔱" keeps the week's assignment simple: catch something to eat. Strick and Fran's most-watched new upload has reached roughly 68,000 views, with viewers picking out Strick's spear aim and one asking what kind of fish he caught. Others offer a recurring reminder from this corner of the outdoors: watch for crocodiles.

That concern has a companion upload, "Crocodile as big as our boat! 😮" Its opening-day audience was larger than the dinner video's, but the fishing upload has since gathered more views and is drawing substantially more daily viewing.

The larger journey, though, is unfolding in "DAY 100 LIVING FROM THE OCEAN In Remote Australia." Posted just before this week's window, it has reached roughly 824,000 views and is the channel's busiest video right now. The seventh episode of Sailing Across the Top belongs to a route from the Gulf of Carpentaria toward Arnhem Land and eventually Indonesia, with fishing, traditional hunting, rock art and cooking the catch woven into the series.

Across the channel, daily viewing is close to its usual level and subscribers held steady over the week. Kamoka Pearl and MeatEater had especially substantial weekly view gains among nearby outdoors channels. For Strick and Fran, the fresh dinner catch adds a smaller, focused installment beside the continuing ocean voyage, while "DAY 90 AT SEA: Giant Crocodile & Giant Mudcrab" remains active too.
