Anyone have experience with the PALM brand bags and if so, what size is best for my OT Pack canoe?

I usually carry a walking stick with an offset faceted head I bought from a native in Kwazulu Natal province. These "Knobkerries" are a fearsome weapon on men, dogs or other pests when on a walk. A lot like an Irish Balckthorne stick. While living in SW Georgia, they had a wild pig...

Mike, Thanks for the good info. I will see if I pull the permit and then figure which boat to go with. I may end up lining / portaging on most of the bigger rapids if I bring the OT Pack. The flows should be lower in early September.

I'm retiring this summer so I am planning some trips. I have put in on the Lottery for a few dates in early September for Desolation-Gray Canyons, which is a wild and scenic river. just 84 miles, so if I'm drawn I plan to paddle just a few miles a day and then camp/explore/fish for the...

Hornbeck classic 14 and a Gheenoe 16 Super for heavy work, waterfowl hunting and fishing Salt and bigger water.

And.... I just threw up a little writing that..

I just bought a bundle of Organic Ginger-Infused Firewood. Very mellowing.. Using it in my $200 Biolite battery-powered firepit. Because I care when it comes to the planet.

So....Mem has gas?

I have a four dogs that weighs 44 lbs. Heavy, but built to last and I can get a 5- 6 hour burn with hardwood and damping it down. Heck, after 5 hours I have to get up and pee anyway. I just stoke it up then and when I wake up its all comfy in the Laavu.

Mem, do you mean one of THESE Italians???

Mike, I am with the firm Dewey, Cheatem and Howe. As a representative of these flies, I must inform they feel they have been treated unfairly and we demand you quit the premises and allow them access. # MeFlew.

JIm, you will love it!! It's like a little blacksmith forge. I have heated meals with forest duff, pine cones, all kinds of untreated wood, charcoal and dried Buffalo chip once. The chips were an experiment, not something I would do again unless I had to....

Amazing trip! More please.....?

Does anyone else use a Sierra Zip Stove? I've loved mine for 25 years now. As long as there is some type of coal, wood or dander I can cook and it makes a nice mini campfire under a whelen or vestibule.

DId a trip last year up around Jelicoe ON in Spring of 2017. It was a few weeks after ice out and I had my OT Pack. I went alone to a few bacl bush lakes and ponds where I didn't see another soul all day. I knew if I went in the drink I would need to reheat myself right away, so I packed my PFD...

TITANIUM LMF Spork for the WIN!

I like where you are taking this!! Especially the fly gear. I use a lot of PUGLISI flies or Puglisi fibers in my flies for the toothy fishes. They take an amazing beating. Great you can get Luca to sit still, if there are any waterfowl around, my lab will probably tip anything but the...

Ok Jim, now you've screwed me up!! First, I watch that video and start making notes. THEN I see linked videos of trips through the Park, and catching some pretty nice brookies and bronzebacks. And then, 3 hours later on a Saturday afternoon, I realize it's too late to finish my yard project...

Well, I could stand to be in better shape, but I AM a duck hunter........

Grouse Feathers by Burton Spiller. I love the way he writes about his childhood experiences. His prose reminds me of Nessmuk.
