No joke, we have … No joke, we have this same tree, across the street. not as big though. but still wonderful goodies. i dropped a thorn and stepped on it, i can tell you, those things are sharp.
Dave,
… Dave,
Great video as always. I just wante to give you a bit of info. The sawdust material that you found that was very fine is not from woodpecker feeding. It is called “Frass” Frass is the very fine textured wood feeding and boring as the result of many differnt types of wood boring larvae.
flower150 so what … flower150 so what happens when your in an ( oh situation) and you lost your hooks, you are right in what your saying that it is a better idea to just bring some hooks but you have got to have a back up, that is what he is showing
@maxpullara1 … @maxpullara1 Thanks for you note. I’m going to have a go at making fish hooks, but I am sure that there has to be a better way than finding right-age shit, charcoal and pitch.
Unfortunately I don’t have video gear but I will try to keep you informed
While it is nice, … While it is nice, and very satisfying, to be able to make your own fish hook it does seem like a lot of wasted effort. A dozen assorted fish hooks in your kit take up no room and are the right tool for the job.. And the time that you took making the hooks could be better spent actually fishing,
i live in tennessee … i live in tennessee and i haven’t seen a honey locust. what we do have is something called a thorny bodac (thats what i’ve heard it called) it doesn’t have thorns like that but it has thorns on the limbs they are woody, shorter, and have a very distinct crosslike shape. they are really sharp (i found this out the hard way when i was four) would they work for this application?
yea, your an … yea, your an awesome teacher wish i had the cash to enroll into your training corce. i know you could teach me some stuff i havent learned on my own
