Again this isn’t a pack loadout, just a few things that are new to me that I’ll be trying out! Thanks everyone for watching and hope you enjoy the video!
I for one enjoy your vids. Very educational, I never really thought about the pouches, I use heavy duty plastic bags from work, and they work, I just have to eventually change them out. I’ll have to look into that mans site.
Don't get me wrong I love gear, I love pouches. But I stuff smaller pieces into socks. I bring an extra pair of socks and put gear in each and stuff them into my pack. After all you are going to bring a extra pair of socks anyway so it saves weight, space and money. I put the gear in one until it about half full or less and give the sock a twist to lock it and pull the top back over itself to seal it.
Great idea!
We like it mate. Cheers from Australia.
So when you change your socks you put your gear into the dirty sock?
Totally agree on your statement about using the gear that works for each of us.
I like the suggestions. Helps get me thinking and maybe some ideas I wouldn’t have thought about.
Excellent video! In regards to pouches,. I am a carpenter by trade and I have discovered the heavy duty stand up zipper utility pouches by Klein. (found in lowes or Home Depot. Things are bullet proof,. Different sizes and colors... I have some for my work buckets... EDC bag and hunting bag. That what works for me!
I love those Klein pouches, my dad would always give me a couple on Christmas or birthdays. Still use em to this day
I've got the diawa mini caster, and use a sleeve I made out of a pant leg from an old pair of jeans
Nice solution. I’ve only seen this one video he but doesn’t seem like the kind of guy that makes his own gear.
Informative video Jake! Thanks for sharing!
Out of all the bushcraft and survival gear bag videos I've seen over the years, this is one of my favorites. It's all so slim and organized, but not too light either. That bag is still so small and light, that you can comfortably attach a blanket and frying pan to the exterior of the bag, and have room for snacks.
Most of my recent purchases have been replacements for worn out or lost gear, often the same as the previous items with one or two minor exceptions. I've stuck with my brand of water filter bottle because they are made locally and they have never let me down. The only change I'd make to your kit is I'd put some brightly coloured lanyards on the camo and OD green pouches because those things can just disappear in the dark. Yes, I learned this the hard way!!!
I bought my dad a knockoff water filter like yours, it works great for personal use for hiking. We use our filters at deer camp for 5 gallons at a time, it does not work for our application even though it works efficiently. You're 100% right on having things and gear that works for your application.
I don't use the Grayl because the filters don't last as long as the Sawyers straws do, and they take up too much space.
not to mention the price is outrageous compared to the sawyer type straws
It’s kinda crazy that I’m even saying this but I’ve been kinda falling out of love with gear in general. Haha 🤣 I’ve found the things I really love and have just been looking at all the rest of my stuff and it looks like a big dollar sign. I’m about to sell everything. I do still love my canvas tho! Also the canvas sleeve Jason makes for the bucksaw might fit that rod! Awesome video man! Bless you bro 🙏🏽🔥
I hear you there. I’m at the point where I usually just keep backups of the exact things I like best.
I bet your wallet is thankful. I collected a ton of gear when I was still green and learning what I liked. But now I feel like you. I look at all the shit I amassed over the years, and if I’m honest with myself, there is only a small percentage of that gear that I regularly use. Most of it I can do without. I can’t tell you how many trips I took where I brought all this cool gear, and half if it never left my pack. My problem is I become attached to my gear and don’t want to get rid of it, but if I were to really only keep the essentials and get rid of the rest, I’d have a nice chunk of change. Of course, I have also found some great gear that I can’t immagine doing without, but gear collection is definitely addicting if you don’t keep it in check. I think Horace Kephart even said the same in his book, that is, that planning and packing your gear is often times even more fun than the actual trip, so this type of thing has been happening for a very long time
So I’m not the only one
Frost River makes a nice canvas fishing pole sleeve for up to 24” pole pieces. I have used it will a 5 pc. Diawa Rod. Currently using a Eagle Claw “Pack It” 7’6” Fly/Spin setup...I also have several Grail filters (Their Awesome), I’ve started to use them similar to a water blatter when hiking with a Hardside Hydration Swig Rig...
Being 65 now im also leaning towards a 15 liter gear bag. My BOB makes it all the way to my truck, then the essentials are transferred to the 15 liter when i get to the jungle here in Florida. Works out well with my arthritis in my back.
Great video, thanks for sharing.
Thank you for the entertaining video I appreciate it
Glad you enjoyed it
Nice kit dude. In comparison,I found a hard side glasses case for cheap, and that's where I keep my headlamp for storage. It shouldn't be accidentally activated.
Keep doing your thing, man. Awesome content.
Appreciate it!
I am a bit of a gear fiend. Video is Awesome. You are doing an excellent job. Use what works for you, what you like, what you can afford!!! Among numerous other things I have a Large Alice Pack from Forestry Suppliers which is made by Rothco. It looks almost identical to my Alice Pack I was gifted by my Uncle, late Vietnam era. Happy to have both but I get endless crap about new Alice because it's made by Rothco. Works great and no issues. Best To You Always. Keep Them Coming!!!
Love the Titanium GeoPress, I have a Grayl and bought the "Cup" myself. Love the setup. I still add a second, water bottle, (canteen) for additional water. An old surplus plastic army canteen gets warm water boiled over the fire and added as a bed warmer at night. When I press water through the Grayl, I fill the water in the canteen for additional water. Works for me every time.
I just ordered the Vertx 15 litre Long Walk pack. Usually when I head out to the woods on an afternoon woods romp I bring my canvas haversack. This pack seems like it would be a perfect back if I wanted to bring a little bit of extra gear while still being small and compact. Love your content. Keep up the good work.
"NOT EVERYTHING IS A SURVIVAL SITUATION!" is the perfect comment. If you learn to survive with your regular kit you'll always be okay. There is a comfort in high stress situations in having tried and tested kit that is familiar to you. My personal take on the Grayl Titanium is that for £200 (about $270) I can buy another standard Grayl, a Pathfinder nesting cup and 2 replacement filters because I know if anything happens to my Grayl Outer my filter system is u/s. Excellent video buddy. 🏴🇬🇧
Hello 👋 my outdoors friend, thank you for sharing this informative video. Looks like you are prepared for almost any emergency. Stay safe out there. 😊
You can pick up soft sleeves that keep your rod protected inside of rod tubes at fly fishing shops or catalogs
Campcraft outdoors makes a waxed canvas sleeve for folding saws. They make different sizes. Amazon has them about $18. Would work great for the travel rod depending on it’s length when broken down. I know they have a 16” one.
I love gear videos!! Thanks for sharing with us!!
Use a boot sock for securing the rod. Soft and stretches and will hold it secure
Love my bush baby, and Genesis, and frontier lol, also my moras, my white river FC5, few no longer made hand forged blades, as well as well as a beloved swiss army knife etc... basically good edged tools are king in any outdoor craft. All have their purpose and comfort lvl for each individual IMHO. I also own many axes, hatchets and saws for various applications. Picking kit is a personal thing but overall the tool/tools u carry only need to cover needs for ur particular mission ie day, multi day (3+) through forever scenarios. Just my thoughts.
# 12 bank line, it's your funeral LOL. Good video, thank you for sharing.
Yes. Interesting choice of an item selected to cut weight on.
Prol any old discarded tent or poncho sleeve can house the fishing pole. I re used a tent pouch for a cumfy pillow. I just chuck my jacket in there and raise my head off the ground with my pack pillow If youre out of ideas then an old sock should do well. or get paint ground cloth and sew it into a more custom outfit
Great job!
I like your way of thinking
Not thing wrong with evolving with your gear, I’ve done it many times. Being older with some physical limitations has had me rethinking all my gear. At one time I liked the traditional, but now it just doesn’t make sense. Now I like to go lighter and have really streamlined my gear. I enjoy the bush much better now
There isn’t anything wrong at all with the bushbaby it’s an awesome little knife and as you said paired with a machete or camp axe , personally I love the mora camp axe / hatchet you can do pretty much anything out there . O and I won’t go anywhere without my SAK in my pocket. Great vid Jake
You can never have enuff pouches and yes that backpack is perfect for everyday edc!
Great setup, Thank You
Great video man. Nice work. Man I can't describe how important is to have a NON tactical backpack in an urban environment. I am using a tactical backpack in my work and everyone, even my boss asking me, what I have inside.
In a shtf/natural disaster situation ANY style pack indicates you have supplies. Supplies make targets.jmo
A folding bucksaw pouch might work for the fishing rod. Those flexible gear ties might be better than rubber bands.
Exceptional video as always Jake, please keep them coming. I have a telescopic fishing combo kit that works for me, would be great to see your fishing kit in action when you can. ☺
Nice bit of kit! Thanks for sharing my friend😎
Thanks for watching!
I've been waiting for a 24-oz TI version for ages. As soon as you said it was a geopress I immediately went to the website and pre-ordered one! 😆
Nice 5 C’s kit!
Maybe a paper towel roll for the fishing pole. A little solid, but not as solid as a like a mailing tube?
I appreciate your perspective. I just discovered your channel. I was a boy scout… 35 years ago, so I am just now really getting back into outdoors skills, and appreciate anyone who puts out information. More so when it is presented like you did “works for me, but may not work for you.
Nice gear. Love LTWK knives!
That's a great loadout but its not in a 50 lt. pack it can really be carried lol ya man knives 3 4 inch is about it with a machete is perfect I had one like that from Martin back when fly spin combo that was a great set .30 caliber barrel sleave
excellent video 👍 Im a
gear junkie so these are always awesome!!! cant wait till the Saturday overnighters
LoL I have been using the BushBaby as my side carry out in the woods since I have got it. I now want to get one in a scandi grind.
Nice. Like the scarf.
Make yourself a rod carrier from 4" pvc light wall pipe and 2 end caps. Mine fits my rod AND my micro tackle box for sunfish, perch, catfish.
Reel goes in the ruck.
So much better to carry it in a tube than any other way, never break an eye or a tip again.
That TI Geopress 👀
👀
Good information!
Good stuff, man! That rod and reel combo is awesome! Used it last year and plan to do some fishing with it this year. 👍
It’s definitely my new go to
@@buckeyebushcraft try getting the sleeve thing for the agawa folding saw it might work
You could definitely slide that rod into the case for an agawa boreal saw
Cheers for the updates mate.
Eagle Claw used to make an spinning and fly combo kit in a soft case and i have a couple.
I like the Grayl filter kit you have and would like to aquire one and the pouches. Ive used the lightweight silnylon pouches and while lightweight they just dont hold up well to abrasion and wear out and get frayed holes easily. The rest im all good and have a small sleep pad as i dont believe in browse beds and there are no leaves in the forests i frequent.
Good video Jake hope to see more videos
love it!
Gryal, got to say they are most likely a good filter, but I will not use one. It just erks me that they are nothing more than a copy of a 70's era design. Damn the name escapes me, but I had one.
Back then, the price was less than a half days pay. The price of the "modern" filter seems to be about 1days pay or 1.5-2 days pay for titanium.
I just bought a Vest! Disperse the weight as they say... I have tried multiple waist packs, that Military stuff is the best. Molle, MMSS, Gen III... ALICE Stuff, well... The new Fighting Load Carrier! And oh to find Rain Gear as durable as the Gore-Tex... If I had an 'ol Lady... She'd be getting a Sewing Machine for Christmas. Her Company would be called, "The Patriot Raiment Co." LLC . "Not Even Cold or Wet" would be our slogan. Hey have you ever seen a "Happy Suit" or a "Marshmallow Suit" of the ECWCS Gen III stuff? "Camo"... Something more "Civil" may be in order at times.
Nice bud i like those pouches
A possible case for that compact pole as I’ve found that the bag from those folding chairs works great we put 2 pcs pole for transport purposes so they’ll stay safe 😎🇺🇸🤙🏼
Greetings from Camp Whiskey. 🤝
A tenkara rod case would probably work for you.
Or make one out of a pant leg
Good video.
The Grayl filters and purifies much more than Sawyers. Sawyers are cheaper but do not do as much. Grayl has no competition. PFAS, heavy metals, viruses, etc.
For the pouches: what’s the benefit over a Maxpedition pouch, or even just some Ziplocs for most things?
Actually the filter straws I just bought filter out more than the grayl and can do up to 5000 gals of water, they cost me 10 bucks a piece.
The grayl had it's day but is now just a overpriced gimmick that people can show off how much money they are willing to spend.
If you have a tent that got ruined or broken then use the tent pole pouch for your fishing rod
Some good equipment
Good stuff brother
Thanks man
I came from another channel. I love the videos!
Thanks for stopping by!
@@buckeyebushcraftthis is awesome thanks for responding
@@justinbarden4356 I appreciate you for watching!
This is not a soft cover. But you can make a case from PVC put sponge 🧽 in both ends, glue one end on, the second have as a glue on but with a screw on lid.
Hope this is helpful to you & the rod.
Cheers ☕️☕️🎣
Dave
I'm just leaving a comment so you will make more videos
More to come
He said, “ that’s stupid.” 😂😂😂
I don’t know who told you, I carry a 6 inch blade but I’M NOT STUPID!!!!🙃🙃🙃
It’s your 🌍, I’m just in it. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
I've been ignoring your channel for a couple of months now ever since my RUclips algorithm first presented it to me. This is the first of your videos that I have watched and I've already gotten several good suggestions for things that I am considering trying out. I'm now a new subscriber.
My Varusteleka Terava Jääkäripuukko 110 knife with a Boltaron thermoplastic sheath along with a package of Blade-Tech Tek-Lok knife sheath hardware is on its way from Finland to the United States as I type out this message. It will be paired up with a Varusteleka Terava Skrama 240 modern-day interpretation of a seax, which I purchased with the right-handed brown leather sheath. In the immediate future I plan to augment the 2 knives with a Silky Outback Gomboy saw for those instances where the Skrama 240 is going to require too great of an energy expenditure for the ultimate return in processed wood. Chopping is great but there are definitely times when a saw is the preferred choice in a wood processing tool.
I'll definitely be watching more of your videos in the future.
Come on man! Why you gotta do me like that!?😂jk. I appreciate the sub buddy!
@@buckeyebushcraft *My apologies! RUclips has presented me lately with so many Survival/Prepping/Bushcraft channel options, so many of which are total male bovine fecal matter, that for a while, including when your channel first appeared on my radar, that I just stopped investigating any new choices.*
*I REALLY stopped watching the newer bushcraft RUclips channels when multiple female so-called bushcrafters started appearing as choices to watch and ALL of the thumbnail images included them wearing skimpy upper body clothing where their breasts were exposed by a minimum of 50% to as much as 75%, and that NO true outdoorswoman would EVER consider wearing while performing the skillsets that the video was supposed to be highlighting. JMHO, but softcore near pornagraphy has no place in the prepping, survival, bushcraft, backpacking, car camping, hunting, fishing, or archery communities.*
My 110 Jääkäripuukko came with such a sharp blade. I thought some of the other knives I bought came sharp, but the Jääkäripuukko factory edge is on another level.
I've never heard anyone addressing the funkiness that comes with drinking from the same vessel multiple days. How do you address this with the grayl?
Get a cotton felt gun show rifle case and cut it to length for you fishing rod.
Daiwa have a retractable rod series which you can mount your spinning rod and comes with a pouch
👍
Nice
Good looking Bushbaby😜.
I take a spare spool for my reel so that I can have 2 different line test as a backup. Hate to waste a good day of fishing.
Xl tube socks make a good sleeve for that type of rod
Goon Tape? Never heard of it. Where do I find it?
goontape.com
Very nice setup bud. My tastes vary from yours on some things more the knives than anything else....but the bush baby is an outstanding knife, I prefer a tracker, along with three others I carry minimal gear, long distance is my thing so some heavier gear is more out of necessity than anything else, like you said we use what we are comfortable with. Hope to see you out lurking in the woods sometime, be well my friend
Nice deal but you're gonna have to put the info for that fishing rod.and reel in here. The one I found isn't $80. I can't find it. Good video. I like seeing new interesting things like this. Thank you!

Awesome!!! Thank you so much! I had my Scouts make those little test tube fishing kits that Shawn Kelly had on his channel AWHILE AGO and they had a great time and caught a bunch of fish. I saw this thing and I said I gotta look at it. Thank you!
Best water filter is a First Need nothing touches it.
They still make the mini spin kit. 50-60 dollars amazon
late to the party and you may not even see this but for a fishing rod sleeve you might be able to use and a old tent frame pole sleeve light weight and doesnt take up really anymore space
You should be able to find a soft tripod case that will fit that collapsible fishing pole.
Tent pole bag could work for the rod
It's not the size of the blade it's the motion in the ocean ive heard 🤣🤣🤣
What if you took a pant leg and made a little pouch for the pole pieces? I bet that would work. I did that for our marshmallow roasting sticks to keep them together.
The T6Zero has been out of stock for awhile, can’t even get one right now,,,
For your rod just sew up a small piece of any fabric. So cheap and you can get it exactly how you want it
This. A donor leg from an old pair of jeans would be perfect.
What about a bag for a take down pool cue for the rod?
The fishing kit me like but I personally like the crappie mini reel the rod. When I get my set up, I’ll go for crappie and bream, panfish are better IMO, than bass. As you have say, #PP. I’m a lover of bass fishing, so I shouldn’t have to really buy panfish bait because I get it when Walmart reduces the price. Some green 1lb line is excellent for panfish.
I love gear as much or more than the next person. I am planning on buying a 450$ knife real soon in fact. But. Make more of your own things. You’d be surprised what you can learn to make, make it, and appreciate gear that much more AND it will probably help you, dear reader, figure out what you are more willing to spend them dollars on.
Go with what works for you
Again, having a light is good for emergencies such as caves but if shtf they can give away your position making you a target from far away.
I don’t buy into the shtf scenarios, most guys who make videos on that are former military guys that try to push their ideologies to civilians making them think they’re gonna be fighting a war in their backyard acting like Rambo. I stick with real world applications and don’t do “what’s cool” just to get views.
Likelihood That you’re gonna be in a E&E situation and can’t use a light is practically zero.
Likelihood of you being in the woods past dark and need a light is 100% if you camp, hunt, ect.
@@buckeyebushcraft I'm no youtuber or a vet but I was in a place where Russian bombers flew over Texas.
@manowar4046, And you had to “Bugout” and “Escape & Evade” as a result?
@@brawndothethirstmutilator9848 No but it's always good to be prepared that's what bugout bags are for. To be prepare for the unexpected.
Very true. Besides, light or not, with how common drones, infra red, and night vision are it wouldn’t make a difference. You could be standing with no light in pitch darkness where you can’t even see your hand in front of your face, and you would still light up like a Christmas tree.
Why do you guys keep ignoring the fact that Grayl’s can clog faster than most filters. Our waters of America contains natural tannins that specifically state to avoid when using Grayl water system. Not all streams and creeks, rivers are clear not to mention lakes. So as a survival choice why would choose it when you cannot back flush and that you would have to carry multiple cartridges to sustain a viable source of water. Now don’t get me wrong it does its job. But the box illustration is down south in the part of the Americas where water is more clearer. Second it’s not a light carrying filter when a hand held pump system is light than that one. My Survival filter is equivalent to that large Geo Press and is down to a 0.1 micron where the Geo press is 1.4 microns. The strain filter does the rest. Mainly the carbon element does most of the work. Grayl does not list its micron level period!!!!! But because Oooooool DAVE CANTERBURY saids so you all comply. If the filter company said that TANINS will clog the filter you’re not going to get a lot of presses depending on the water source. Then there’s turbidity that which bandannas and smougs or (Palestinian scarfs) can’t filter out. Yes the lower micron filters can clog easily but they have a way to back flush or unclog their system where Grayl does not. In my opinion the Grayl system is designed for hikers not survival. You guys need to stop listening to other idiots claiming survival for a recreational filter. You are absolutely correct in choosing your own gear but the water system is the most critical out of any of that gear. Not all creeks, rivers, streams, lakes can be siphoned from or scooped up for drinking!!!!!!!!
SEMPER FI
I personally have been using Grayls for years, I’ve never ran into any problems with them. It’s what I like and will continue to use because it works for me and my location. In my area you don’t even really need a filter, there are so many springs around that you can drink straight from.
@@buckeyebushcraft I like your channel. But you guys need to illustrate that your water source can sustain a Grayl filter. There are so many people thinking that it will filter out anything. You mentioned that what you do is not for everyone, in which I applaud you for that…, not fussing either! But Dave Canterbury has everyone thinking that filter will out do all others and he seems to forget the instructions of that product. We as your subscribers needs to know what water source your using it in, because I had one and it clogged after four uses on lake water which to me was pretty clear. So I tried on a fresh creek same results. So I contacted the company and said that the water source (pretty much) has to kinda clear. Also people think it will filter harsh pollutants. None of these personal filters will do that. There are little kids who think they can do these things trying their version of bushcraft. You guys have to think about that stuff. But keep’em coming on the content. Will await for another.

Easy to recommend something you get for free. I use a membrane solutions because it is rebuildable and has carbon. It costs under$30
Free stuff works for me.
