A guy can eat good with just snare wire and a fish net. Couple of them didn’t look dressed very good for the weather. I’m looking forward to seeing how they all make out in my neck of the woods. There’s a lot to eat in the delta so I’m guessing at least a couple contestants go pretty far. I’ll be watching for sure

Thank you Ryan for the heads up on the show ! Some day I wouldn't be a bit surprised to see Bobby one a survival show and hear that he rocked it out of the park ! Since he's got a darn good teacher to show him how it's done !
You're friend along the snare line .

Did not see a lot of promotions on this upcoming show it just came up on our recorder that was kind of strange. We plan on watching its a interesting show for the most part.

Thanks for posting Ryan. My money is on Wm Larkham Jr. He from this area. This area very similar to your area re. the country, conditions and wildlife. Wm is a really good country guy who should have near local knowledge advantage. Grew up at that stuff all the time with mostly same conditions, and wildlife, as your area. Handy guy too at DIY stuff. Gill net and small game (time best spent at rabbits but possibly some white partridge and grouse too) snare wire will serve him well. I watch Williams YouTube channel and will be watching the program to see how he makes out.

I watched a little on netflix then found out each person is assigned a small area they cant leave. I think luck on best area has more to do with who wins than anything else

If you don't have enough food available in your area, nothing is going to save you. The person who gets big game has it made.
Right now I’m having amnesia and déjà vu at the same time. I think I’ve forgotten this before.

I think I would ditch the bow, and opt for a plastic tarp. Also forgo the hook and line fishing and take the gill net. First guy forgot fire starter, unless I missed it.
I'm going with the woman with the gill net.
If anyone has snare wire that is sturdy enough for beaver should do well if they have any beaver around them.

What's the time frame that they will be in the bush?
My ten item list;
Fire starter
Tarp
Sleeping bag
Para cord
Ax
Saw
Snare wire
Gill net
Cook pot
Multi tool
If they don't allow a tarp, I would swap that out for either salt or coffee.

They actually pick individuals that will FAIL. I think New House 114 has been turned down 2 times. Because he would win hands down.
You have to go through rigours physical and mental testing.

The ones that win or last the longest overall, have the strongest minds/willpower.
Has little to do with anything else.
The ones that give up early are all weak willed.
