Join me as I go through step by step my river salmon fishing gear and techniques as I warm up and get ready for another food fish harvest.

Join me as I explain why I chose the spot I did, how I constructed an improvised shelter, collected dry tinder in the rainforest, fed myself and then nearly burnt myself. It's an interesting video, as I problem solve my way through an uncomfortable environment, and ultimately turn it into a comfortable one. Sorry about a bit of foul language and thanks for watching! If the video seems to be low quality, make sure to increase the resolution as this was all filmed at 60FPS FHD.

I didn't film the Construction because I was building it on my friends Live stream -Upper Canada Active Club. Here is the result.none the less

Spend a few minutes with me to see how easy it is to make and use an automatic rope tensioner system.

Join me for a walk down to my favorite Salmon fishing spot.

I go over some of my knots, techniques and how we like to Jeep camp. Hope you enjoy.

Join me while I explore the environs around me. You might even learn something.

I have been wanting to try these ideas out for sometime. I am convinced that, while both do work, the Waxed Cotton is superior. Mainly due to its water resistance, but also the 100 second burn time would be much better in a survival scenario. Thanks for watching. https://ucogear.com/products/titan-fire-striker-ferro-rod

I had an idea about making a cantilever bed. Decided to try making a chair. Tools and Equipment List- 10m x 10mm Braided Rope 10m x 25mm Tubular Webbing (Yellow) 8m x 15mm Tubular Webbing (Orange) 1 roll of #27 Bank Line 1 Fiskars Hatchet 1 Fiskars Pull Saw 1 Gerber serrated pocket knife Total Build time 45mins

Short timeout to take in some sunshine. Cool Black Bear Den at 0:56:00. I wanted to have some breakfast on the river, picked up a cheap steak on the way out. Nothing else but my Ferrorod, pocket knife, hatchet, handsaw, Nalgene bottle, an old gas receipt and a roll of bank line. Leave a comment if you've ever cooked a steak on a rock before.

I saw this chair a few months back when I was watching 30 Day Survival Challenge: Vancouver Island - THE MOVIE ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FfBxHDKTFCs&t=1s ) and I wanted to try and recreate it in my backyard. It worked out ok.

Its important to allow our children the priviledge of a broad range of skills. Fishing is up there with fire building and shelter construction.

We always try to leave the area better than we found it, and often we are rewarded for it.
