thats a buck hunting knife, it sure is good, but depends on the application. Throwing? Lol. Treat your knife with respect unless you want to forever get the tip back.

For Suggestion for a good set of throwing knives, i'd recommend a set like the Hibben Next Generation Throwers or Gil Hibben - 7 inch 3 set.

I mean whats the cheapest gear I can do this since I guess all my money is going to a fishing license and probably a park pass
and is there a directory for innawoods trails and stuff up here?
can I just sleep out or do I need a tent?

>>931056
You don't NEED anything, I slept just outside Yos last year while I was working on a ..ahem.. farm. The ground was actually warmer than the cabin I was provided. I would recommend some sort of insulating layer under your jeans, decent jacket of some sort.. If you don't have literally anything, know that I've been fine with nothing more than a knife, lighter and a jar of Nutella for weeks at a time. If you want to get gear, and just can't afford much, Tyvek makes a really good tarp or even raingear if you can sew, and can usually be picked up for free, and a $10 closed cell pad is better than an inflatable in every respect except pack volume, plus I do most of my hiking in tennis shoes. Don't over think it, people lived in this country long before it was a country, and did so with nothing but sticks and rocks.

Caveat: Bear spray. At least one huge son-of-a-bitch down there associates human beings with 2Gal buckets of molasses. Sorry.

>what are the rules for fires, bear proof containers, etc. in CA forests?
fire limits are seasonal and elevation affected. search the nfs/nps sites for local restrictions. same with bearcans. the actual bears here are all timid black bears, stand tall and yell load and they'll go away.
>all I own is cotton jeans and jackets so how fucked am I come March?
you'll be fine. just check the forecasts and don't expect to do too much skiing this season.

Probably western Canada. Lots of Canada (especially northern) you can still walk places no one has ever been before.

>>930861
What places are those?

>>930861
This. Northern Canada is a massive vast wilderness

Saws are tools. They come in many styles for specific uses. The best saw is the style of saw specially designed for the job you want to perform with it.

So, what jobs are you going to perform while out? Pair the correct saw with those jobs.

this packs smaller

Boreal 21 is way better. Dustrude's wooden handle absorbs water.

it's the food, just wait for her to be the first one to fart if you want to be a fedora gentleman

Who actually farts in this the year 2017? Been holding that gas in for nigh on 20 years now. Get with the program fools.

I'll start.

I caught this 23" Brown Trout this past summer. Caught him on an Olive Green Bead Head Wooly Bugger. Released him safe and sound to the creek.

Some say the wooly bugger is cheating because it works a lot of the time, but I don't care. As long as I am catching fish I really don't care.

How is a bugger cheating? I've never heard that before. Awesome fish, where'd you catch it?

Caught pic related and a few more larger rainbows on Christmas Eve. It was the first time I threw a euro-style nymph rig, and I had success before getting hopelessly tangled and struggling to tie on a new setup with cold hands.

Any tips for keeping double nymph setups tangle free? Next time I want to try a drop shot rig like Kelly Galloup uses (google it)

what the fuck is a varsity scout?

I got life scout, but then I decided I liked banging grils so I dropped out.

Where are you located anon?

This is a big question because I need to find a place to urinate and my favorite place is on the bums in my city.

I love you.
