There's a fishing general, check the catalog

>>797491
This bait is sex-mode, would probably catch a pike or bass, dogfish if that had them.

Mimics a dark sunfish very well. The main thing with fishing is to mimic what's naturally in the lake and predators snack on. Also, I'd recommend going with smaller than you'd think for lures. A Rapala minnow, rubber worm, some shiners/spinners, a sound bait such as a jitterbug/hoolapopper, and maybe one more shiner would do you good.

You could get by with less probably. Might want to get weedless, but my experience with them has been that they suck and don't take the hook as well.

Stopped at a Wendy's for lunch while travelling today and they upgraded thier paper ketchup cups to plastic.

First thought: jello shots
Next thought: now I don't have to buy the Toaks Ti shot glasses!

I've also been to the camping section at Wal-Mart

>what kind of compass?
One that points north

>>797109
Essential navigation tools for every hiker: compass, map, eyes (sometimes ears and nose too) brain.

>>797115
That sounds about right.

>I literally cannot think of how to do something so basic as to follow trails or own a map and have a basic knowledge of the area.

Go out on a full moon, make sure there's not a lot of tree cover so you can see. It's good to hike in the snow because the moonlight will reflect off of it.

Did lots and lots of dismounted night ops in Kandahar province. Night hiking is not something I would recommend to someone without NVGs. Sure on a clear moonlit night everything is great once your eyes have adjusted to the darkness, but a little bit of cloud cover rolls in a few hours into your march and then it's stumbling around in the pitch black kilometers from anything with only a depth-perception free green-tinted bumwad tube to protect you from tripping and breaking your ass. And that's without roots and branches to trip over.

Went for a night hike in a swamp in Jersey, around 4 AM the bugs and animals started becoming really active. Heard a blood curdling scream, too, probably something getting killed

Just got a wolf spider they are already fighting. The walls are a bit wet from me washing it because the amount of death and venom in there was crazy

Something big for protection, high energy so he doesn't tire easily, and smart so he'll obey commands.

German Shepherd, Boxer, Pitbull, or similar mutt.

>>797027
I would suggest an alarm. I have been bugged heavily by bears there in PA. It's bad, be careful.
Use your nose. You will smell tons of piss markings.
If you smell death in the middle of the night, that's bear breath. Alarm + run.

Watch out for deer too, they are extra aggressive in PA.

Big, strong , smart, good companion, doesn't tire easily, loves exercise.

Heads up. I have never done this, but here it goes.

First off, do you have any metal working skills?

Also, /diy/ probably has people that have probably done this.

>>796723
you better have mad skills and access to a junkyard.
Also tools including a welder and cutting torch.
Start with an old mobile home and use the chassis.
Cut down the axle to narrow the width. remove the siding to reuse later.
Good luck getting it water tight , use house wrap and bituthane under the siding.

Honestly I never have seen the point of a tear drop trailer.

The only advantage they have is that a motorcycle can tow them.

Other than that, they're smaller than a pop up, more expensive than a pop up, and less versatile than a pop up.

I get there is less set up time with them, but pop ups go up quick.

A teardrop is literally just a bed with some storage in the back. A pickup bed with an air mattress has more room. Sleeping in the back of an SUV with a sleeping pad is more roomoney.

If you're broke, just get a tent. It works just as well.

It seems like you are trying to justify trespassing. I don't like it when people trespass on my property so I do t do it to someone else's

>>796720
*so I don't.

You'd be absolutely right, I am trying to justify trespassing if you want to make it so black and white.

french toast.

bread + egg + milk = god tier /out/ food.

fry it up in extra butter for bonus goodness.

I bring a thermos full of soup, usually cream of mushroom, French onion soup, cheddar broccoli, and cream of turkey. it's maximum cozy.

>>796517
you throw any seeds or nuts in the bread?

what kind of beer do you use?

How long do you go /out/ for?

>>795864
Where do you plan on hiking? Obviously you're going to have an easier time with ultralight hiking if you live in warm, dry climates and have easy access to water.

Also, I'm not sure what "Exped UL 7 LW" is. Is that a sleeping pad? If so, there are lighter options. I've got a thermarest ridgerest that's 335g. Only about $35 too.

>>795916
My intention is to take on the Scottish Highlands somewhere over the next year. Norway might also be an option but I'd go nowhere near the arctic. Probably I'd travel for no longer than a few days without resupply opportunities.

>>795916
The UL 7 LW is an air inflatable sleeping mat yes, the reason I prefer it over other solutions is that it folds down to about the size of a 1 L water bottle. It's insulating properties are also the shit.
