I noticed you had to disable chat on your frog gig short you made. Lol. If nothing else was on the table to eat people would be changing their minds really quick...
Just a quick word on bolas, for those whom have never thrown one. Do some research before you try to throw it on proper technique. And wear a full face motorcycle helmet until you are proficient.😂
You continue to surprise me with new at least to me ideas. Your presentation technique with the new ideas makes you a favorite and very high on my list of teachers. Keep up the great videos!
those snelled hooks are great way to get food, even better if couple of them are fishingflies, you can still use worms... but even without bait it might catch something
Food maybe the last survival item behind water, Fire, and shelter but it is essential to know and practice these skills. Your method of instruction is easily the best on RUclips
I love all Ranger Survival and Field Craft videos. Enjoying going back through your videos and seeing how to create things. Very useful knowledge. Thanks for sharing!
Excelente vídeo! Tenho uma sugestão quanto ao emprego da boleadeira. Originalmente os indígenas utilizavam com 2 pedras pegavam uma extremidade giravam e arremecavam, quando os europeus chegaram no continente passaram a empregar essa mesma ferramenta de caça, porém acrescentaram mais uma pedra ficando assim com 3 .E permaneceram arremeçando segurando uma das pedras . Também chamadas de três Marias. Conforme chamamos as estrelas . Uma outra ferramenta nesse caso de caça e batalha era quando faziam com apenas uma pedra e a corda feita de couro trançado. Essa era chamada estrela solitária, ou simplesmente bola. A corda era mais longa podendo ser arremessada. Diziam os antigos gaúchos, que o homem passava a valer por três no combate corpo a corpo. Um general de nome Osório ( se não me falha a memória , quanto ao nome) foi ferido por uma dessas , nas costas , em uma batalha da revolução Farroupilha no Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil. O mesmo teve perda de sangue ao ser atingido nas costas e levou 30 dias para, se recuperar desse ferimento nos pulmões. Isso já nos anos de 1835 a 1845 enquanto os combates já se davam com armas de fogo espadas e lanças essa arma não era desprezada . Sendo levada sempre ao redor da cintura junto a faca e pistolas como último recurso.
I hadn’t thought of hardening using the plow method. Super useful if you don’t have a fire! I usually just heat over coals. Truly though, the only thing I’ve ever hardened in the field was a handmade pair of chopsticks because I forgot my Spork!
I use small treble hooks,#14-#16 size with Velveeta cheese,they are tougher to extract but work so much better than single hooks & the bait is more secure as well.An added bonus of treble hooks is ,You can use them to catch Quail & other birds & critters as well when they are incorporated with a snare.Staying Fed is Very Important for being in the bush,Period! Many Thanks Andrew for your Excellent Tutorials & Keeping our brains busy with 1st Class Knowledge! Cheers!!!
Might be hard to fit treble hooks in folded up duct tape. :) As far as single hooks go I've heard circle hook are better than other varieties for set lines as the tent to set themselves in the fishes mouth.
If you have the larger treble hooks and light wire you can make a bolo that doesn't come off easy. Makes a nasty but effective self-defense weapon as well!
I would notch a seat for the knife to set into the end of the spear before lashing it on. That way when it is thrust into the game it has the full lineal support of the spear shaft vs depending on the perpendicular support of just the lashing.
I really like your approach and your willingness to give a technique a no-go for any particular approach instead of forcing ot or trying to explain it away. If it didn't work that time, it's a no-go. FYI, I figured you for an NCO, not an officer...which is a compliment. (36 years, both ways). Keep up the good work!
Always outstanding tips major. I’m still hoping to get in on a course or two up at the Pathfinder school this year, if the tumor in my head goes into remission. 👍🇺🇸
Thank you for the comment, is definitely appreciated. Looks like it’s another cycle of chemo, than an MRI. This fight has been ongoing, ever since I was pulled out of a chemically induced coma back in 2010.
2 improvements to the fishing kit. Bobbers. Small 2x2 or 3x3 inch plastic zip seal bags. For visibility put a piece of neon colored flagging tape. Melt a small hole above the zip. Melt not poke this line tie hole. It is stronger and less likely to tear out. As for sinkers. carry light gauge magnet wire instead of sinkers. For the same weight you can make many more with the wire. Find a stone of desired weight. None small enough bang a couple of rocks together till you do. Take a section of wire. With practice you will get a feel for length needed. Place your chosen stone in the center of the wire. Bring both end up the sides. Twist 1/2 to a turn and a half. Take the ends back to the bottom and twist again. You have now formed a 4 sided cage around the stone. Take the ends and form 2 opposite loops for line attachment. You guessed it twist one more time. Trim ends as necessary. You could do the same with light fishing line. But the knots are a royal pain to get right. With wire all you need to do is twist.
Slingshot bands -if you blouse your trousers with your boots (military) replace those bands you buy at the PX with slingshot bands or surgical tubing. The tubing can also be used as an engine for a trap or as a straw or a bellows tube (have to be a bit more careful, ideally attached to something heat resistant). Got the idea from Ron Hood, had a great set of videos, "Hoods Woods" a few years ago. I think they are still available.
And once again really good information, a great video with good demonstration of the methods. Thanks Andrew, you take care of yourself, see you next time!
God bless America… The freedoms we hold dear… I don’t take my freedoms for granted… So very thankful that my son served in the army and came home safely… We are blessed that you served in the army Andrew… And are also continuing to serve by teaching us much needed survival techniques… we never know when we’ll need to use them… 🙏🏻🇺🇸🙏🏻
Love the videos but I gotta call into question the tiedown bungee to y stick turtle slingshot. Turtles have shells so your talking a head shot vs trying to jump a turtle or stunnIng it with a thick long walking stick whack. Please more you and less fake tv guy - pathfinder school graduate from a long time back
I love my Leatherman Rebar, as featured in this excellent video. Sturdy, with a great compliment of tools, yet actually can be carried in my jean coin pocket due to it's narrow profile. This leaves my belt available to carry a fixed blade in a sheath.
Don't chop up yr bungee. You can tie a cord to one end with a loop. Split the 'long'... (so it releases the rock and not come back at you - 4 inch diameter with pouch attached.) ...loop in half and attach to the pouch. (A piece of leather from the extra long inch wide belt you wear work well.) Just slide one of the bungee hooks down to the other and hold the bungee at the appropriate length for maximum power. Wearing a glove you can launch an arrow also. Attached to the end of yr frog jig for better accuracy and speed, like a gidjee... a fishing spear with elastic loop at far end, slip yr fingers into loop but not thumb, stretch toward prongs and grip spear to hold in place, loosen grip to lauch. Damn... the things we made when we were kids, like a surgical rubber crossbow. Eat yr heart out Huck! Universal Sovereign Citizen
An excellent video. I will tell you what I am doing within the next couple of weeks and why. 1. I have David slings and sling shots with spare parts. I will make some with paracord for the first time. 2. I have Bolas that I made with fishing weights. I will make three as done in the video. Why? 1. The reality is that the skills are in the person and not the tool. However, the next door neighbor, your wife or your brother doesn't even have the imagination or experience in making the tools. 2. Your survival will be greatly enhanced by living in survival group than doing it alone. Having a few rustic tools available to share which cost nearly nothing to make provides the group with tools. You are valuable to the group because you skills in making tools. 3. Real world situation. In October 1977 (not a misprint), I left Afghanistan by the only method available, through the Khyber Pass to Pakistan. When shtf, you are not going to be able to go to the shoe store or the hardware store. When you see something in the video that works, get the inexpensive parts from the hardware store/knife dealer/550 cord source now.
Hello Andrew. Nice to see you are still using my beloved F-1. I used mine for a whole winger has a neck knife. I would highly suggest you have that plastic handle removed and have it Re done in micarta. Your grip will thank you. Sich a great blade. If also suggest another piece of Swedish kit, the Bivanorak. I 've had it for as long. It's worth a look. Keep up the great work sir!!. JB
Whant a bran new great working very small camping stove. This very small dental gauze and tools sanitizer makes a perfect stove. It opens and has venting on and off on its bottom and sides. Look up Cotton Gauze Sterilizing Cylinder Storage Tank Dental Material This works well with wood or charcoal and a simple PC wire grate for the pots to sit on. It can be used to make charcoal and char cloth also.
I have what I call a pocket bolo. This is much lighter than yours I. E. the washers. You sew 3 fist sized draw string bags, Thread your paracord in as the draw strings. Tie a bowline loop run the free end through the bowline. Tie the 3 cords together. To use fill the bags with locally found material for weight . No weight to carry. The local material can be dirt, stone or even snow in winter. To carry. Stuff the cords in their own bags. The 2 bags in the third.
Good stuff. The bolo was a novel idea. As far as the wire saws go, do you have a recommendation on which you prefer? I had one years ago. Don’t remember the brand, but I broke it the first time I used it. Of course I didn’t have the benefit of knowing the best way to use one like I do now after watching your videos. At the time you were probably a wee lad. Suffice it to say that it was cheap and may have broken anyway had I known the proper technique.
From all of the episodes of Alone I watched, losing fishhooks was one of the single most concerning forms of diminishing durable resources I saw. I suppose fish hooks with leaders is the best response to that. Perhaps a knot that involves anchoring the end of the line in a way where slippage isn't an option, like split shot. Gill nets were the most reliable food collecting tool, but life and death (or losing the show) was dictated by the ability to kill, process and preserve large game. If the earlier seasons had been extended to a mandatory minimum, pretty much every team would have been dropped for excessive weight loss, which would mean death in the wild.
I enjoy bushcrafting, learning skills and hearing others share their experiences. I believe in having a three day survival/get home bag. It makes sense to prepare. But to be honest almost everyone knows that beneath all of this is the idea that we need to prepare for surviving the end of civilization. Yes we talk about that too but never or almost never talk about that unsolvable and Un survivable problem of what do you eat after your supplies are gone. You simply cannot get enough calories or protein from the plants and edibles you can gather in the wild. And hunting and fishing is so hit or miss that it cannot be depended on. So all of the youtubers chose to simply not deal with this issue. Did you know that the winner of Alone season 9 stuffed himself before the challenge gaining 60 lbs of fat just so he could survive the Un survivable longer than the others? This is the biggest problem that hangs over all preppers and survivalists and bushcrafters and no one will talk about it. Let's put this on the table and deal with it.
All good projects.... it occurred to me that even if I didn't carry a complete slingshot and I do have one if not two, I would at least make or buy something to use as a pocket because I would always have paracord for some Bank line
Thanks for laying out your information in an efficient, no nonsense way. Seems to me that if a concept can be relayed in five seconds, you do it in five seconds. What you just did in ten minutes would take an hour or more with far to many RUclipsrs. I enjoy your content. 👍
Andrew - have ever thought of adding an atlatl to your list of hunting kit you can make and use in your downtime. You might as well as you look proficient with a long list of small game hand made "death machines"?
of the non fishing ranged weapon things go for hunting stick, rabbit stick, throwing stick what ever you want to call it is the easiest of the "ranged" tools then get a club or a spear ready to use as well all three instinctual to use you don't have to "practice to get good" if you are in a survival situation.
Sir, you might wish to try out crafting a shepherd's staff sling. From what I have seen, easier that the standard sling to use accurately, and a stick can always be useful.
No such skills needed for those living in cities. Unless you eat rats or pigeons, hunting and fishing is off the list. How close is the nearest body of water?
It is my sad duty to inform you a functional sling can be created in seconds using a single piece of cord create an S a quick single wrap at each end and cord through.
I'm guessing that it would show up better in the video than the dark black bank line. Probably the same for when he uses blaze orange cordage for the video projects
As always, very useful and informative with plenty of variations on how to feed ourselves in a survival or camping situation. Thanks for sharing your abundant knowledge and skills. Charlie Wright Salem Oregon.👍
Well that was fun. I haven't thought about a bola since the 80s. I made one from clothes line and fishing weights. I used to wrap my friend legs up. Good times.

A supply of known pure water

I don't go anywhere without
water that I know is safe to
drink.
Top Shelf teaching of techniques folks can actually use! We appreciate your efforts filming, editing and posting.
Andrew is an excellent teacher 🫡
Alright finally someone who remembers how to use hunting and protection tools that have been around for 100 's of years thank you SIR
I love all Ranger Survival and Field Craft videos. Enjoying going back through your videos and seeing how to create things. Very useful knowledge. Thanks for sharing!
He has some incredible videos ! My favorite was probably the snow shelter

If you kill a frog for demonstration purposes, it will be right to eat it. I'm not very sentimental even if it's about hunting people.
I hadn’t thought of hardening using the plow method. Super useful if you don’t have a fire!
I usually just heat over coals.
Truly though, the only thing I’ve ever hardened in the field was a handmade pair of chopsticks because I forgot my Spork!
If you're going to kill it you better eat it.
He does show it being cooked most of the time 🫡

Interesting ideas!!!
Cool ,I like your videos and tips ,but one of the tines on your gig went thru the frog and you threw it back in ,shouldn't you have eaten it....
I would notch a seat for the knife to set into the end of the spear before lashing it on. That way when it is thrust into the game it has the full lineal support of the spear shaft vs depending on the perpendicular support of just the lashing.

I remember a Vietnam veteran who could survive with nothing but a pocket knife and the clothes on his back in the Canadian wilderness.

Thank you again Andrew. I love your work!
Bolas are great for things that run faster than you, hit it and tangle legs up . Got cha!
And once again really good information, a great video with good demonstration of the methods. Thanks Andrew, you take care of yourself, see you next time!
Another great video, i like the way you friction fire hardened the wood.
Awsome vid, I like the right to the point information.
No BS instructions, as always. Love that channel ! 🫡
Thankyou Andrew.
Awesome
Came to say just that 🫡
You never fail to" bring it",keep those videos coming !
Another brilliant video andrew keep them coming
Thanks for another great video very informative. Enjoyed it and sucked up all the info I could.😊
God bless America…
The freedoms we hold dear…
I don’t take my freedoms for granted…
So very thankful that my son served in the army and came home safely…
We are blessed that you served in the army Andrew…
And are also continuing to serve by teaching us much needed survival techniques… we never know when we’ll need to use them…

Can you demonstrate a stake-out line as referenced in FM 21-76 and Ranger Handbook?

That frog has mixed feelings about you.
No he doesn't have mixed feelings. HE IS PISSED OFF!
Thanks for laying out your information in an efficient, no nonsense way.
Seems to me that if a concept can be relayed in five seconds, you do it in five seconds.
What you just did in ten minutes would take an hour or more with far to many RUclipsrs.
I enjoy your content.
👍
From any other channel some of these exotic hunting weapons would be foolish, but Andrew is the REAL deal 👍
Andrew - have ever thought of adding an atlatl to your list of hunting kit you can make and use in your downtime. You might as well as you look proficient with a long list of small game hand made "death machines"?
Military survival courses taught by civilian instructors, right? Using the word military as click bait is pretty cringe.
Awesome! Thanks, Andrew!
of the non fishing ranged weapon things go for hunting stick, rabbit stick, throwing stick what ever you want to call it is the easiest of the "ranged" tools then get a club or a spear ready to use as well all three instinctual to use you don't have to "practice to get good" if you are in a survival situation.
Sir, you might wish to try out crafting a shepherd's staff sling. From what I have seen, easier that the standard sling to use accurately, and a stick can always be useful.
That frog looked like he was trying to upstage you! Can’t believe you gave him the last word.
No such skills needed for those living in cities. Unless you eat rats or pigeons, hunting and fishing is off the list. How close is the nearest body of water?
I have the K Bar hobo reel in my pathfinder gen 2 waterbottle kit. Handle holds plenty of tackle
How about next time having a little respect for wildlife and replacing it into the water gently. It's a living thing not a piece of garbage.
Hi Andrew ,greetings from Australia thank you for your time to make these videos.
Andrew, you should do a compilation of your work and turn it into hard copy for sale. I would be the first one to buy.
These are a lot of great skills to have in your personal knowledge suitcase. I think you know what I mean. I will be working on these skills.
It is my sad duty to inform you a functional sling can be created in seconds using a single piece of cord create an S a quick single wrap at each end and cord through.
Have you considered the use of an Atlatl? For hunting purposes?
You had me with the bass at 5 seconds in, then we never saw it again😔. Great video none the less.
In a survival situation, can you eat any fish you catch from a lake or stream?
Parabéns pelo ótimo trabalho. Gostei muito das dicas 👏🏼👏🏼
❤❤❤
Interesting you have an Australian style Golok or machete as the poor folk call them
Great video as always. Thanks
Making that Sheppard's sling seems like a goliath of a task
Thanks for sharing Andrew. 🇺🇲🔪🌲🔥
very nice! the washer bola is cool never thought of that.
Great video thanks for sharing YAH bless !
Andrew. You had bank line, why did you use paracord for your trot line? Wouldn’t the tar bank line work better in the water ?
I'm guessing that it would show up better in the video
than the dark black bank
line. Probably the same for
when he uses blaze orange
cordage for the video projects
Excellent hacks, thanks again Andrew
As always, very useful and informative with plenty of variations on how to feed ourselves in a survival or camping situation.
Thanks for sharing your abundant knowledge and skills.
Charlie Wright Salem Oregon.👍
Mobile, Agile, Hostile…great vid Sir.
Great video brother thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise and for what you do and GOD-BLESS brother hello from romulus Michigan
Cool Video 👍
Thank U for the Info and links 👍
I don’t know how you do it, but don’t stop one of my favorite videos outstanding work, Andrew Long live Sergeant froggy, of the 101st airborne
Well that was fun. I haven't thought about a bola since the 80s. I made one from clothes line and fishing weights. I used to wrap my friend legs up. Good times.
Great video sir, thanks for sharing.
