Rough Camping & Survival Tips

Good theoretical fish hook idea.....

But,,,,
I have tried it without success so far.
'Hook' is too big for a small fish
and
too weak for a bigger fish that took the bait.
Also, the barb is not working as it should.
Anyone of you that had success with this fish hook?
Show us your catch, or explain your set-up so I can see where I make my mistake please

@observe - if that Flip-top-hook is All I have between me and starvation….I’m dead!
Might look good on a paper drawing but very skeptical it would work —- like a wooden “Spear” for Grizzly Bear
 
HankBuck, I totally agree!
That's why I try to warn armchair 'survivalists' that this aluminum can fish hook method is a Big no-no.....

Rather try and make your own gorge hook then.....

@observe - that’s an impressive piece of craftsmanship and painstakingly made….Not sure it could catch a Fish but I admire the work, just the time it would take me to “make that” - I’d starve to death !

An excellent AH member right here! I had a fantastic transaction with Hornedfrogbbq (I was the seller). His communication was first rate, payment was extremely fast, and I would have absolutely no reservations at all dealing with him again. Thank you, F!

Here we are, the last day of the show in Denver, it's been a good show but expecting a quiet day today. I will be back for-sure to do this show next year and maybe also do the one in Sacramento California.

On Monday I will be hitting the road driving from Denver and eventually make it down to Atlanta for the flight home.

its going to be a good year!

Hi Rem280, Saw your post on getting selected for Idaho Elk. Do you have a zone(s) selected? I live in N Idaho, might be able to offer some ideas.

Cheers,

Craig
