What is your go to carry when fishing?

Must know. Why green?

unripened Black walnuts have a nerve toxin in the flesh covering the shell, if you cut into them in several places and suspend them in the water the toxin will paralyze the fish causing them to float to the surface.
old native American trick.
Illegal but useful in a survival situation.
The fish are safe to eat as the poison binds to they're blood.
The poison is called Juglone.

Noxious to fish.

Actually a toxin causing paralysis not a noxious agent.

This trick is taught to soldiers during SERE school here in the states, the SAS teach this trick as well.

Depends on the fishing, sometimes a .12 gau for Sneks, other times, a .44 or .454 for Big Brown Bears, and if you have read the Mountain Lion thread, I carry a 10 mm auto and usually have a carbine close to hand, because you never know, especially in known predator habitat!

That is very interesting! I'll have to keep that in my memory bank in case a need ever arises.
