New Tools for Fishing | Live Free or Die

The food has been pretty, uh, minimal in the canyon here. So I'm heading to this other creek area. I'm hoping to do some fishing, and I'm also just interested to get into a new area, try to find some other food sources, and just get out and explore a little bit, go for a little adventure.

Victory is short-lived in the wilds of Arizona's canyons for Desert. No Tobias, it's only as good as his last meal. Out here, there's no surplus. There's no having abundance for the future—it's really just trying to figure it all out. I think there's other places where what I'm trying to do would be easier, where there's just kind of more abundance of the kinds of food that humans need to survive. For humans, this is a tough environment.

Yeah, I think I've always been drawn to traditional skills, and I didn't always know what that meant or what it looked like. As a kid, I was always trying to go out and hunt and gather in the woods. I just wasn't very successful. But now that I have more exposure to it, I kind of understand that what I was interested in was these prehistoric skills that really pave the way for all other humans.

Hear that? Can hear water. Decided to go get a drink. Yeah. Made it with the water source; you just get all this diversity of life. I'm hoping that this area is more abundant for finding food. My goal is to get some fish today, hopefully.

So I’m going to make a spear. I'm looking for a spear fish in. This thicket of willow has some nice tall straight pieces. Probably take a pole kind of like this and split the end open. The spear is really easy to make, so it's something simple I didn't have to carry with me, and they're pretty effective and really low tech. So simple is better.

So this is probably ten feet, which is not bad. And now what I'm going to do is try to split this end into fourths, so it'll basically become like a four-pronged spear. Okay, so I put this in; it'll spread those apart like that. Pretty good. This should work good. Now I just need to find some fish.
