Bow Fishing For Survival | How To Make a Survival Bow AND Catch Fish With It!

[@JunkyardFox]

This was hands down the best wilderness skills video I’ve seen in a long time. Great knowledge, great presentation.

[@harveyrickard5004]

love this channel because it shows every thing even the mistakes

[@RS4393]

Great video. I keep a small spool of 10 lb test and some hooks in my pack along with my ferro rod and such.

[@Glenboi]

Me same. 10lb

[@crocuta60]

I would love to see a video explaining how to make those bone flutes, that you previously showed on the channel.

[@bleepblo]

He explained it in the video

[@crocuta60]

@@bleepblo I would also like to see him make them, forgot to point that out.

[@overweighthikerwannabe901]

I was wondering if you had thought of trying to use the leftovers from cleaning the suckerfish as an attractant to lure other fish into shot range.

[@maggietaylor9713]

Thankyou for uploading. You always give such interesting information whilst you are busy with any process you are teaching us. I didnt know about the anti spasmodic compounds in cherry bark so there's another gem stashed away. It was great to see yiu got a fish.

[@bilnjan]

Well done and interesting. Keep it coming.

[@ClintHollingsworth]

I really enjoy your videos. Might I make a suggestion on tools? Opinel puts out a tiny folding saw for pruning. Could make awkward hatchet swinging unneeded.

[@blessedbeauty2293]

- Great video thanks. Anything that has to do with catching fish, I'm in!

[@crowfather8248]

Very cool 🎉

[@taushalarsen3748]

You caught one! Super entertaining!

[@Ebrichner]

Keep the longer content coming bro!!!

[@paoloamoy319]

great video man. would love it if the vids were longer too

[@ClintHollingsworth]

I took a primitive fishing class with Earthwalk Northwest and we hunted carp with Atl Atls with wooden hickory heads. I found a spot where they swarmed and put dart after dart into them. Scratched the hell out of them, but never penetrated until I got one in a shallow and literally pinned it to the creek bed. Their hides are like armor.

[@geeeeeeeezzzzzzzzzz]

That was great BUT in such close range would it not have been more effective and way simpler to make a spear with 3 spread out prongs. I see you did mention a spear briefly at the end so I guess it did occur you.? Or you could just jump in and use your hat to scoop them up. I like how the Chinese get cormorants to do the fishing.

[@NuocMamDaily]

Love your informative tutorials/ videos. Keep them reeling 🎥 in!!!!

[@cipherzeroactual]

Have you ever worked with a Hudson Bay pattern axe? They are my preferred axe for general use. The size/shape makes them very controllable.

[@fvls_2110]

I wish to go fishing in a place like this someday. Theres no rivers in my area, semi arid place.

[@felixgagne1283]

Sucker fish are really good actully they get the bad reputation from all the "bones" they have

[@bozzskaggs112]

If they aren't really bones what are they?

[@stacywilliams1710]

Good Job Sir

[@trevorrivas1463]

Love you videos.

[@MyHelloolleh]

Great content! Thanks

[@1967AJB]

Great video, I love that you show your learning process. What’s been happening to you Facebook group? Hacked I assume, let us know when it’s safe to come back.

[@sagesmokesurvival]

I’ve never made a Facebook group. I’m sorry to tell you, but you’ve been following a fake account. There’s lots of fakers re-uploading my content. Please inform as many people in the group as possible if you can. The real Facebook account is here: facebook.com/share/42mVa4eV7uGZuXSM/?mibextid=LQQJ4d

[@daymondhughes8848]

Best video yet! Are you using a new camera? Video seemed a lot sharper. Several things struck me. 1. Taipei 101...loved the architecture it stood out from the first time in the background. 2. Seemed really clean there. 3. How short the pants legs were on the changing of the guard. The little things sometimes... 4. The Jufin temple was so vibrant. I think it was Jufin...9 parts. 5. Interesting that the dessert wasn't really sweet. Similar to going to a Chinese buffet here and the dessert looking delicious but pretty bland to an American's taste bud. We eat too much sugar and corn syrup though. As someone that doesn't hear well, I appreciated the title when you were at the mine complex. It made it much easier to understand what you were saying. Probably wouldn't be an issue except it being unfamiliar with the language, although you seem to pronounce it well. Also in the same vein the background noise when you gave the overview of the museum. I had to listen twice. Something too that would be useful is a subtitle on the cost American (and local currency) of the museum, tour guide, food etc. That is always interesting to me. I know you say it but for me anyway seeing it sticks better. Definitely getting better! Best video visually, description given and variety!

[@QuantumPyrite_88.9]

Thanks for a most interesting video. From the high desert NM.

[@causmogroov3764]

What kind of wood did you use? Very nice grain pattern.

[@JeremyRichards-lr6kt]

Now the challenge is to get a duck with it.

[@spark.stream]

This is really interesting, nice video

[@fishmaniachannel]

Excellent vedio👌❤️

[@ldybgd]

I’d have stopped at the twine, a worm and an improvised hook.

[@GokuvsHitguy]

Ik the view ain't motivating but please don't stop doin long vids. Especially hunt and cook or survival

[@LETME-kl9jg]

Well this shows kids how to obtain fish in a different manner.

[@hogarthheathan]

Could the problem be with the bow string breaking that you pulled with the string 13:56 instead of pushing out your arm like you suggested earlier? I'm not being a scoffer, and am genuinely curious.

[@Noone-rt6pw]

Netting or channeling them fish??!!

[@Blacknstraight]

I’m not a bow hunter but I want to be. You said you were going to push out with the bow instead of pulling back on the string, I didn’t see you doing that. I guess it’s hard to change techniques on the fly. One thing I find that is not in most survival videos is the ability to be ambidextrous, I think it could be beneficial to train with both hands in the event your dominant hand is disabled.

[@sagesmokesurvival]

You’re right, I totally deviated from the technique I described. Thats because things felt different with the string on the arrow. Felt like it needed the more well known approach. Being ambidextrous would be a tremendous advantage in any survival situation, especially if injured

[@thechickenwizard8172]

Would a spear have worked better in this kind of situation? I imagine in such shallow/still water it would be feasible and a bjt quicker to just make a long spear to catch a larger carp

[@sry1]

Love the video tutorial, but can we acknowledge a spear in this situation would've been a better survival choice? Great video tho, positive vibes He does in fact acknowledge the spear - respect

[@Asgard2208]

Very interesting. So when you see the fish in the water, where do you aim to account for refraction?

[@sagesmokesurvival]

Below their belly.

[@m373x]

Great video, I love your content! How do you feel about throwing hefty rocks at fish to temporarily stun them and pick by hand? I've seen it work on the internet and it makes a lot of sense. I've personally seen spears be used for carp fishing in shallow pools like this with good success. Bow seems like a lot of work for unreliable results compared to a spear.

[@sagesmokesurvival]

A spear probably would’ve been better, but I can hunt a lot more than just fish with a bow. There were rabbits and a porcupine I could’ve taken with a bow and arrow that same day. It’s more versatile than a spear

[@m373x]

@@sagesmokesurvivalTrue. Also cooler.

[@adrianlarsen1106]

So if you have actual fishing line with you, will that work as well for tying to the arrow for retrieval? And will it fire better? Between sisal twine and fishing line, which do you recommend?

[@sagesmokesurvival]

Fishing line would’ve worked much better for retrieval. It’s designed to glide instead of bind.

[@Somethingelse506]

I like my twine grippy bruh

[@JeremyRichards-lr6kt]

When I make bows they always crack so I make rabbit sticks.

Do offerings before entering and taking from the land. So sad to see them stuck like that. Welp, grab your eats and enjoy. Can't complain when food is free in todays world. 💯😋 🎉

[@american_pride0]

what happened to your trade axe?

[@sagesmokesurvival]

Just didn’t have it on me that day, and wanted to try out this axe that my friend restored

[@BradtheButcher1234]

My friend a coghlans 4 inch sierra saw with sk 5 steel Japanese pull saw blade is 5$....... 1 or 2 ounnces and ive harvested and trimmed cords wood with the little thing backpacking for 30 years...can even buy replace blades It makes trimming and pruning really easy .......ive done week long hikes with it and a mora and had fires for cooking every day

[@landonhaynes9503]

In America carp are no longer considered invasive they are naturalized and help ecosystems

[@philiphazelton6655]

sad mommys boy

Just clear all the small branch first then you got room 🤦
