Damn

$25 for a combo Hunting/Fishing license $17 for Trapping. No three way combo.Seriously $25 bucks to fish and hunt legally in Indiana.Plus special permits or stamps for deer,turkey,waterfowl.Also don't forget your trout or salmon stamps.Aren't trout and salmon fish?

If you knew the bottom was gonna fall out what would you get right now?

An exercise.Lets say some how you were prewarned tomorrow at 8:00 am the banks were shutting down,the dollar just became poor toilet paper.What you would you run out and get right now?Food? Ammo? Cooking oil? Clothes? Toilet paper? Medicine?Liquor + smokes? Gas? Tires?So much I would need.Been prepping but not ready for a shut down.What would you get?Don't be shy.I would really like to hear your thoughts.

Be Prepared!

Survival fishing

One of the blogs I read recently had a guest post on survival fishing. But they were discussing rod and reel fishing.As a survival plan this in my humble opinion is a poor plan. Possibly to feed yourself.However most of us will have more than just ourselves to feed.With a rod and reel you are covering one little area. What if the fish are not in that area,aren't in the mood for bait you are using,etc? While I like rod and reels and in fact have a bunch yeah one of my obsessions. If needing to feed many I would setting trot lines or some call them trout lines.Trot is correct but no matter. Trot lines are a long heavy main line 200 lb test or better with many dropper lines spaced a foot or so apart. Set lines are are just a heavy line tied to something so fish cant pull it in.Limb lines obvious line tied to limb.Yo yo's are a mechanical reel you tie to a limb or solid tie off it sets the hook and keeps tension on fish for you.If fishing a lake or pond jug lines old bleach,milk,laundry soap,pop,etc bottle with a drop line is tossed out.Large buoyant jug wears fish out.You row or wade out pulling up jug.

There are many ways to fish. Set traps be they hardware cloth (heavy mesh) live trap that fish swim in but can't get out.Setting conibear or similar type trap to actually slam shut on fish.

Bait can range from food you may have little pieces of bread or dough to catch minnows then put them on hooks to catch larger fish.You can catch grasshoppers and crickets.Many ways to catch them if not familiar Research it.Grubs can be dug up.Maggots from dead animals can be harvested,yuuck but we are talking survival here no time to be squeamish.Crawdads are prime bait for many fish.These can be hand caught,trapped,or use fishing pole.

Use your imagination so many ways to catch fish.I have barely scratched the surface.Water is not just for fish either! Crawdads,frogs,turtles,muskrats,beavers,nutria,snakes,geese,ducks.All can be found above or below the water.All are edible,some are actually top end eats.Yuummy.Fishing is not just a rod n reel.

Be Prepared!

Picked up at Blues blog.

Ladies and you kinder gentlemen who are offended by profanity please leave now and come back later.We love ya.But we are cursing and being profane. Blue has a post on that Rotten Bastard Harry Reid. Why are you folks voting for this rotten GODless man?This man Corrupted the Pledge of Allegiance.

http://elevenbravotwenty.blogspot.com/2011/04/dickhead.html

Now to those who don't believe in God no big deal.And hey live like you want to live.But I do! I know some think the Pledge is a bad thing.But this is the flag of our Country,boys have died carrying the flag of this Country.

If you don't See how this shows the Evil in this man,well I won't try to explain it.But in case you missed it,check out short vid at Blues. Being a Vet I imagine Blue was probably more upset and hurt than me.And I did have steam and a string of profanities roll out that would of made a drunken sailor blush. People Reid and politicians like him are removing God Patriotism and Rights from our Country.They will sell us out to Soros and the U.N. when the blue helmets show up to enforce the NEW LAWS don't say you didn't know this was coming!

End of rant.

Dear GOD please help us Americans get through these bad times and bad people we are facing.Thank you Lord for everything you do for us!Amen.

Dinner with a ghost.

Got to spend a couple hours with a friend from down south the other evening.We have communicated before but never met mano a mano. Good man.Thinks a lot like me and many of you.Kind of fellow you would want on your side if bad shit was to go down.Very pleasant evening talking with him and his Mrs., quiet lady type who gets things done rather than talking much about it.Like you other ghost who read,observe,study,and plan to survive bad things coming.Picked up some good info!There are a lot of bad people in America right now.Fortunately there are many good folks like these. I pick friends very carefully because there are not many people I trust.Luckily most preppers are good people.I consider myself lucky to be amongst such a good community of people.

Speaking of good people Has anyone heard from Ken? Ken you ok Bro? Just computer trouble I hope,or busy with work maybe.Prayers are with ya Bro!

Thunder in the valley .

What started out as a crappy rainy day turned in to a shootfest.Seven buddy's 20 long guns 13 assorted pistols.Enough ammo for several firefights.Good times for all involved.One buddy's family has acreage in the boonies with some bottoms with pretty high hills around.Found out Psl-54 is a real shooter and my ar is too.My Ak is now running smoothly but kicks like a damn mule.Both buddy's had Sks recoil not nearly as bad.Other Ak in group not as bad.Hell my Psl Dragunov knockoff in 7.62x54r doesn't kick as hard.One buddy thought I was being a wuss till he bruised his shoulder on 30 rounds.He was almost bleeding.

We broke in a new little shooter he's about 7 or 8 he got to shoot Springfield .22 singleshot bolt and Ruger Single six the boy was smiling like it was Christmas.Oh yeah he fired one round from Ar.We weren't sure if recoil would be to much.He begged to shoot sniper gun as he called it.He only tried it once. Nothing stupid like 12ga.I see a lot of people letting kids,women or first time shooters shoot something to big and brutal recoil turns them off of shooting.Stupid in my opinion.

I hope everybody has a great weekend!
