I will go first, fishing line and hook, I have been fishing for over 50 years and with 4lb fluorocarbon line with top quality rod/reel, I still have a problem catching fish LOL

Paracord snares

I sure would rather have a line and hook than have to make my own line and hook. In a good pond, I can catch a whole lot of eatable fish with just a line, hook and bait.

Some people’s brains. Some people thinks, they can hunt, fish, trap and make a garden! When they have never done it before!

Heard this quote a lot last year..."people don't rise to their level of expectations, they fall to their level of preparation"

4lb test ? No wonder you have trouble LOL you fishing for what we call bait around here.

Gun with no ammo !!! USELESS

I always carry a deck of cards. If I am lost I sit down and play solitaire. Without fail someone will walk up behind you and say "Hey dummy, play the red seven on the black eight!"

fire making equipment, how bout a handful of BIC lighters instead!

Have you ever tried to use one at -20 when you really NEED a fire?

Ever try to light a Bic lighter when you most need it.When its COLD outide.They wont light.Believe me.Wont light if they got wet either.

Bic BUTANE lighters don't work well at sub zero temps. The gas won't ignite very well.

Thays why!

didn't know that

Same reason I quit using a butane stove while I was guiding. Once it got below freezing the stove would barely hold a flame, much less heat anything up.

Didn't see you beat me to it !!

Have you guys heard of inside coat pockets?

As long as the lighter is warm it wouldn't be a problem. Where are you keeping it, on a necklace. Keep it in an inner pocket.

I dont do survival camping. I take what I need to be comfortable. Why would you leave to someplace remote, even for just a few hours, without the stuff you might need? 1/2 dozen MRE's, toilet paper, some bottles of water, kitchen match's and storm proof matchs, a come along, a hi lift jack, some log chains, shovel, axe, tool kit, penetrating oil, starting fluid, duct tape, bullets, live in my pickup year round. Often have spare coat gloves socks and bibs too.

all that playing around with tarps for tents and plastic emergency blankets is for people who watch to much tv.

lighters and electronics need to be kept in inside pockets so your body heat makes them warm

also 2 is one and 1 is not , for fire starting more than 1 way , a bic and matches , Zippo also , can of zippo fuel.

If the flint is wet that is a big issue.
If it's too cold I usually warm mine up in my hands. I usually keep them in my various pockets preferably inside pockets. If I'm sleeping the bic stays in the sleeping bag. The extra I keep in my backpack I keep that in the hydration bladder pocket which is against my back.
