Fish Fish Everywhere And No Pole To Catch Them With

Not to worry, for about $15 and a Zip Lock Bag you have all you need .

Just after unhooking the 3" sunfish which I had battled for 10 seconds, I paused for a break. As I popped the top on my can of cold coke I began to look around my boat. I had quite an arsenal, 5 poles, two nets, one huge tackle box, two smaller ones filled to overflowing, and about $8 worth of live bait. Yes I had it all. Then a strange thing happened. My brain took me back to the age of seven.
I remembered one day my dad took me over to a local pond to feed the ducks. While feeding the squawking flock I noticed some fish swimming around and decide I would catch one. I was sternly warned fishing was not permitted. Being the obedient son that I was, I immediately began to search for a way to catch a fish ;) Luck was with me that day, I found a piece of kite string about 5' long and a safety pin on the ground. I then went to find a stick and anything thats squirms, and put my plan in action.
Well the rest is history, a 10" bass was firmly in my grasp, and I was firmly grasp by my dad. I will not relate "the rest of the story."
The point is, a ZipLock with a spool of 8# test line, a few packages of #4,6,8, hooks, a bag of split shot, a knife, and a few small cork / plastic floats, will yield the same results. All you need to find, is a supple branch and a few squirmy critters.

Drying Foods

Almost any food can be dried, from meat to potatoes. Food dryers come with the directions how to use them with the various types of food you wish to dry. The mistake most people make is not following the directions, and improper storage of the finished products.
As with canned foods, dried foods should be kept out of the light, in a dry cool place. Unlike canned foods, you must make sure your stash does not turn into the local, "all you can eat", mouse buffet. Dried foods should be kept in large, dated, zip lock bags. Once properly labeled and dated, the bags should be stored in plastic or metal containers with lids that fit securely. There are many sizes available at your local K-Mart, Wal-Mart etc.
