Allright we're talking surviving, but if you have a few things to season up that squirrel you just killed why not use them?
I was trying to think of what kind of campfire recipes one might come up with. What kind of things could you use to season meat or add flavor?
Also, what kind of ideas do you guys have for making a fishing rod or other useful hunting/fishing tools?
Now, we must all fear evil men. But there is another kind of evil which we must fear most, and that is the indifference of good men.
Memphis has tons of Cane (or Bamboo), at least in Midtown but most people have gotten rid of it. Makes great fishin' poles. You can make spears out of it. Build huts out of it. Whatever. It's prodigious too. Grows like you wouldn't believe.Originally Posted by Punisher84
Don't know how it got there but it's most versitile. If you want some, my mom has a ton of it in the back yard.
Bullion cubes for flavor.
I've used a Nalgene bottle that is not curved but a cylinder as a reel. Keep fishing gear inside the bottle with the line wrapped around the outside.
My girlfriend just bought me an automatic fishing reel (self reeling) that I'm going to try out next weekend. Backpacking in the winter.....brrrr.
Bamboo is good stuff. Bouillon cubes are really good idea! The bottles of the cubes are pretty small and you could use a cube for at least a few meals.
I am going to try out a few different things this spring when we go camping. My buddy and I are planning on taking one weekend and just going hiking and camping with what we can carry in a pack and see how it turns out.

In Memphis? Who's resupplying you with ammo?
That's called backpacking. You could probably carry enough for at least a week without foraging.
Not camping IN Memphis lol
True. What we are wanting to test is just basic skills. Can we start a fire with a flint, can we catch fish with basic tools, clean, cook, and eat them, etc.
Baby steps my good sir.

Are you planning on using real flint and steel or something like Firesteel or Blastmatch? Are you going to use any kind of firestarter? Or are you trying to use nature's kindling?
No actual firestarter at first. Just gonna use flint and steel. TRY to use flint and steel.

Off topic a bit, but this time of year, look for old bird nests. They make great firestarter with the flint and tinder.
