Wonderful video Clay

It's so sad when one goes out to the wilds, and all you can find is man made litter to store your bait. Cans & Bottles - FFS 🙄 Is anywhere unpolluted ? I'd love to understand your take on the environment Clay ! Why do you not comment on this ? Upset your Reputation somewhere ? Honestly, when one goes out to the boonies - the last thing you expect is PLASTIC .. I'd forget Catfish - I'd be talking PLASTIC ! Get yer Environmental Ethics sorted out my friend !

If I stepped into your trap, would my feet get tied up?

I remember when my dad would come home with an elk or a deer in his pickup and a lot of meat. This brought back memories.

Surviving with nothing but a machete and his own two arms. Now that's a man.

What about Birchwood it's a hardwood would that be good for making bows

Good Good ❤❤❤

Excellent good job 👏

On the longbow that you are making now, can you cut in and make an arrow rest on that bow like a center shot on your arrow rest?

Ur new subscriber ❤ Among68 ❤

For knocking the grooves in your arrow harbor freight you can buy it in a package at three sizes of chainsaw files they are better than a rat tail because you're one straight groove on the file

If you have a belt sander, you can use the front of the belt sander to cut that curve and the handles of your bow as well. An end around everything off the way you want to believe it or not that that sand cloth that you get from the plumbing shop can round everything out really nice that

You might want to go to plumbing shop or humans are both home Depot in the plumbing section they got a roll of 80 grit sand cloth you can tear off the length you want and it would be excellent for rounding the edges of your bow it might be more effective than a file or a rasp or a rasp

Problem with a Swedish Torch as a bushcraft seems to me to be finding a straight log that thick enough that's also been dried properly. I'm pretty firmly in the Dakota camp, myself. No disrespect. But I grew up digging Dakota's and I've never made a Swedish, so maybe I'm talking out of my butt haha. I'd be happy to be corrected.

Dry ass logs

How the wood doesn't break? Amazing stuff!

Thank you so much🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌💪💪💪💪💪

This seems to require a keen feeling for the wood. All kinds of things can go wrong. But imagine the process before modern hardened steel knives. It must have been just that much more challenging.

Not a bad little video on the inns and outs of the fowling piece and I'm going to impart a little wisdom from Sir Peter Hawker, who I think wrote that the shot for your particular bore, should chamber comfortably in that bore. Whether it be a 20g or 1 bore Punt gun. Put the shot card into the muzzle and seat it down a little bit, then with the gun barrel vertical, put enough of your chosen shot onto the card, so that it sits evenly in one layer, with no voids or pellets sitting on the shoulders of three of its neighbours. He found this to be the secret to dense patterns and his success as a wildfowler and his 'bags' were legendary.

You had a tarp, a knife a axe ….. why didn’t you bring a lighter ?

How can you control that smoke direction?

How do u know how to find a position where the wind doesnt change direction?.

Should you bring the fish up to temp at the beginning or end or the smoking process?

Black water river have very few fish my friend.

Clay, just a masterful and primitive display of skill.I enjoy watching how you use your tools. The sound of a sharp blade slicing through coconut husk and scraping bamboo is equiste.

Man, I just laughed my ass off when I watched you fire that thing for the first time because you laughed if that would’ve been me I would’ve been screaming and kicking and crying and throwing shit. I hate that but I can’t control it sometimes I can but props thanks a lot for your videos man I wish I could afford to support you on a Patreon, but I just lost my place of living so but thanks to you and your videos. I’ve been able to make and sell a few bows not enough to get rich by any means but enough to stay fed. Thanks again God bless you.

Lol, I'm gonna teach you how to smoke a fish, proceeds to show me like 35 essential skills, lmao learning go brrrt

Love my mora. My edc is a mora light-my-fire in a neon green plastic sheath. Never lit a fire with it but its been on my hip for about 7 years. Had the mora robust but lost it on a hike. Been back to look for it twice. Once with a metal detector. I might go looking one more time and film it. I've got a good hunch on were it fell out. My only complaint with moras , sheaths. Got me a garberg also. You can beat the crap out of them too. Even at a $100+ they're a good value. Great review. I'm bingin Clay vids tonight.

In Australia we use teatree for smoking fish. The taste is unbeatable. We also call the teatree the “paper bark tree”

Great video Clay....love Cedar.

If a nice fish is close to the surface you can smack the water above it with the flat of your paddle and stun it. Growing up poor as kids in the 70s, fishing was all we cared about. We found or dug our bait everyday. Pulling grass clumps and shaking out the worms and grubs, knocking down exposed wasp nests under overhangs for larva, but usually turning over dead logs on the ground did the trick for worms, crickets and grubs. For those that dont know, you can feed one entire nightcrawler or worm onto a hook from nose to tail and just keep feeding it up your line until the hook is sticking out of the tail and the line is running inside the worm. It will catch fish for hours and stay on the hook/line. A whole nightcrawler will cast without weight and slowly sink naturally without a loud weight splash. Big fish like a big meal and not being spooked first. Also, frogs will bite just about any lure you bounce around or on its nose, even a bare hook. I guess they see it as a bug flying. Caught dozens that way over the years just to let them go. Thanks for another real video Clay. All the best to the family.

Do you believe this guy started friction fire with GREEN wood, can't see any burnishing in the drill hole so i think he's full of it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/e6qcg6qsjdR8f6Msi=5234MSmShtiH3egn&t=1059

50 pounds? Wow!

What is a self bow?

Great review.

Isn't that "dirty" smoke? How much does that amount of gray smoke affect the taste?

Best idea I’ve seen on youtube in days

That has to be the most tear jerking science with you feeding your dog. Your a good man clay

I am a novice ferro rod user so Im not being critical, but I was taught that when using a leatherman, to use the spine of my saw rather than sacrifice the integrity of my knife blade. Any thoughts on that? Great video, loved how fast you through in that Truckers knot.

Good Video, subscribed!

I lived in Fort Walton and Crestview when I around 12 years old. Great memories of my time there as a kid. It's changed allot since then. 😄

glad i found this video I was just about to go find some pacific yew and make a bow from it. Do you think a thick branch would work good? i dont want to cut the whole tree down and mess up

One thing I've noticed with a LOT of people.... they underestimate how much fuel they will need. This is just a demonstration but you'd need more than ten times what you processed to keep that fire going for hours. Just something for people to keep in mind when they are out there wanting to build a fire for any sort of long period of time. It's a pretty time consuming process and really shows how easy it is to fall behind in a survival situation while you're trying to do all the other things.

hey, can someone tell what animal is it?
