Don't seem the kinda place where you want to live and start a family,

If the money are good then go for it and get back to US to enjoy your monies and comfyness.

I'm have put thought into do the same thing op. But can forget it if aren't familiar with the language, culture, and income.
I've been taking German for 3 years now and am still not confident language wise with living there. If you plan winging it and learning from the native speakers, you're going to have a tuff time. Seriously. And don't expect them to speak English for you either, a lot of doors of opportunity will shut quickly. It's the same way hear. You wouldn't want a foreigner to move to your country and request you speak their language.
This is also going to be a huge adjustment in living standards for you. If you don't have any connections, family, or friends already live abroad then your starting from scratch in a country you completely new to. Consult others and possibly fellow Germans as frequently before you commit to planning this.

Idk about you, but fuck laying down if a giant grizzly is charging me.

How many anons here carry a gun and bear spray? Always sounds like one or the other, but the OP got me thinkin about possibly carrying both. Spray the thing first so you don't have to kill it, and then the gun as a backup.

Only thing with that is if the bear spray doesn't work, it will probably sufficiently pissed off and you won't even have time to reach for a gun.

>>744310
Both are effective

I would personally carry a gun.

Combine it with a tent

this looks heavy and not compact and only good for low budget car camping

The answer is no.

>>723522
We'd like to think that we could stop a bear with handheld blunt or sharp weapons, but in reality only a gun could do it. In some cases, even a handgun doesn't have enough stopping power to make a bear leave you alone, you'd need a rifle.

Besides, there's the possibility of just making it mad instead of making it leave.

I think I'm gonna keep that sword in my car for the next time I catch some invaisive fish. I'll prove you wrong. Especially once I slice up a hobo and get arrested for posting pics of it on /out/.

For what scenario?

Preppers are the most ridiculous people. Like children who never grew out of that 'zombie apocalypse' fantasy.

The world ain't gonna turn Mad Max, like ever. Human society is retarded yeah but we're not cannibals. The worst that'll happen during an economic collapse is maybe you won't be able to buy food for a month, MAYBE, but the idea that everyone's gonna be running around killing and robbing each other is plain ludicrous.

We have the resources, the problem is the system that allocates them is fragile and needs to be replaced, which is doable. At most it'll be a month or so of turmoil and then people's paychecks will start coming back in and everything will keep running as it always has.

basic stuff, I'll try to find the type of rod I'll be using that I have.

>>743528
A lot of those prices don't seem too bad considering the value of the Loonies or whatever your Maple Dollhairs are called. But I think at Bass Pro, you will at least have options.

You can spend $3-$4 on Rooster Tails instead of $7 on Mepps. As well as $3 on Bass Pro brand cranks if you don't want to drop $10ea on a bunch of Rapalas. And for senko worms, you can get $4 bags of Yum and Zoom baits instead of $10 Yamamoto bags.

Hype for new rod and reel I'm going to buy tonight, 7 ft 6 ultralight
2000 size reel
Going to get a spare spool for it
4 lb mono on one, and 15 lb braid on the other

All for around $100

we catch thousands of the invasive Orconectes limosus with eel traps in a small lake in northern Germany
I just roast them with butter in a pan and eat them with some extra salt on brown bread

Where are they invasive? Are they native to New England?

What's on the island? Are we talking a shitty little sand mound with a palm tree, or are we talking full on Robinson Crusoe 15 years or more worth of survival?

I just pack instant coffee. Saves space and weight in my backpack, along with fuel and time.

starbucks via. tastes like shit, and expensive for instant, but less shitty than other instants

>car camping

This really needs it's own thread? Really? The knife general just won't do huh?
Typical tripfag

The only /out/ knife I own is a Mora Bushcraft Black. I've been tempted many times to shell out for a Fallkniven or Esee, but have always prioritised clothing, shelter, and other bits of /out/ kit, or put the cash towards travels.

Having said that, I invested in the water stones recommended by uncle Ray and brought it to shaving sharp, and it's a real pleasure to use. So far everything I've used it for has been pretty much novelty stuff, just little day trips innawoods to practice basic skills, except the odd time I've needed a fucking sharp knife as a tool or in the kitchen.

But to answer your question - yes, it's been used, but not as much as it probably should have been. I'm looking forward to putting it through it's paces in Spring when I start getting /out/ a little more

>>713140
They didn't answer my question. So I asked in a thread.

spoopy

I've hiked alone in the woods in pitch blackness far away from anything. Didn't get murdered, raped, or eaten. But it is pretty eerie when you get that feeling that you're being watched. There probably are serial killers who prey on loners in the woods though, easy target and low chance of being caught.

>>736614
In high school I did a lot of night hiking. Just a flashlight through wetlands, I only had one strange experience. This was also in an extremely isolated place where killers wouldn't even bother going.

This David Paulides guy is saying that he doesn't believe it's killers though. Here are some of the facts he's stated

>Kids disappear from their parents in under ten seconds
>Bodies show up in places that have already been searched
>Bodies show up on top of cliffs that require rock climbing gear or extremely strenuous hikes
>Many disappearances in the same places, specifically Arizona and Yosemite Nat. Park
>Bloodhounds not finding any scent at all
>Search and rescue teams reporting finding campsites in bizarre places


Also for the young men in the Midwest:

>Young men, college aged, are found dead in the Mississippi with a smiley face graffiti'd next to the body

The guy is a bigfoot fanatic and has written lots of books on the subject. Missing 411 is just another attempt to build attention for bigfoot and his other works.

Also, he's kind of an idiot. He refuses to believe that people dying of hypothermia would remove their clothes, despite the fact that this is a well documented occurrence. As a last attempt to stay warm the body will move blood from the core to the surface which causes the person to feel hot and flushed, prompting many to remove their clothes to "cool off" because they don't realize what's actually happening.

Once I forgot a drybag with electronics and first aid stuff (gps, plb, camera, tape, treatment for blisters etc.) + correct insoles and instant coffee. Not fun when you've been traveling for 15h with train and bus and walked an hour just to discover that some fairly important stuff is missing.

I've had at least two or three 'nightmares' where I went hiking and realized I forgot a bunch of stuff.

drove 40 min, realized forgot boots. went home, got boots, drove hour and half back towards camping zone and realized forgot tarp.

thankfully my mate had one i could squeeze under.

Not me but my pal forgot one of the spreader bars for his bridge hammock. Made a bushcraft replacement using a length of branch and tent pegs.

Is it by chance the guide on the tip? If so, they sell kits to replace them at Walmart. I've done it once before on an old rod; worked fine. If by chance you bought it from Walmart, they'll likely replace the rod for free if they still carry that model/you still have the receipt.

Also, I made a trip for continuity's sake. + I don't have to say "Indiana anon here again" to preface each post.

Pic is of a 3.98# bass I caught last year. Was my first bass on a memecaster, also first on a topwater.

>>742216
Its the 5th guide from the top, so its a smaller one.

I'm glad you were here instead of Skid though.
