      Yeah, but butter isn’t on the list of most preppers to have on hand in case of emergency, mostly because it’s impractical, so you are HIGHLY unlikely to be in a “survival” situation and have butter on hand

He never claimed the entire clip was what to do in a survival situation. You seem to have issues with logic and basic comprehension.

      I'm so sorry for your loss. I like going fishing with my Dad or my brothers too- the day before we'll go to the supermarket & buy a load of food like sandwiches, crisps, chocolate, pop & sweets, my Dad will take a comfy fold out chair for me & a little pop up tent & a camping mattress incase I need a rest (I'm disabled with a lot of health issues & get tired very easily), take a little camping stove to make cups of tea etc & just fish for carp or pike. I'll even sometimes take my little magpie with me- he just happily sits in his little pram (a little cage on wheels which I take him out in) in the shade of the tent, suntrapping (the bird version of sunbathing) & playing with his toys & treasures. The other people around the lake find it hilarious that I take a magpie fishing with me but he loves the sunshine & fresh air. Me & my dad or my brothers will sit chatting & laughing & have a great time. I want to be able to take my baby crow too as soon as she is old enough. But it's just good to be in nature & spending time catching up coz I don't see them very often. I remember one time with my younger brother we were talking about bait & lures & the best way to attract the fish. I had a box of Froot Loops cereal that I'd ordered off a website selling American sweets & snacks (we do have Froot Loops over here in the UK but they aren't the same as the US ones because they taste pretty bland & aren't as brightly coloured due to the rules over here about sugar & additives etc). We decided to try an experiment by throwing a few Froot Loops onto the surface of the water to see if it would attract the fish & I even put one on the hook & it worked! We both caught a beautiful big carp & lots of little fish like perch etc. Was good fun. But there's something peaceful about fishing & the only thing that matters is enjoying it 💙🎣🐟

    Northern country boy advice/tips
    Crappie is harder to catch than blue gill but tastes slightly better with a softer meat
    You can use a spoon to descale fish (I always use one, easier and safer)
    Personally, I always eat my fish with some bread and butter, that way, if I swallow a bone and it gets stuck in my throat, I can eat a piece of bread and it’ll knock it right down.
    When the sun goes behind the tree line, pan fish tend to stop feeding, so if you have to fish at night or want to, use something dark and jig it while slow reeling. You got a better chance at getting a bass or pike or even gar if your lucky
    Spiders, flys, maggots, bes moths, and other common little critters are great bait for bass, bluegill, crappie, and other pan/sun fish. Bass doesn’t taste the best, but if it’s all you can catch, it’s all you can catch
    Flip rocks and peices of wood over, and you can find worms, grab a few, put them somewhere they can’t disappear like a empty water bottle, and you can catch pretty much any fresh water fish

    Looks really good! I like going fishing with my Dad or my brothers too- the day before we'll go to the supermarket & buy a load of food like sandwiches, crisps, chocolate, pop & sweets, my Dad will take a comfy fold out chair for me & a little pop up tent & a camping mattress incase I need a rest (I'm disabled with a lot of health issues & get tired very easily), take a little camping stove to make cups of tea etc & just fish for carp or pike. I'll even sometimes take my little magpie with me- he just happily sits in his little pram (a little cage on wheels which I take him out in) in the shade of the tent, suntrapping (the bird version of sunbathing) & playing with his toys & treasures. The other people around the lake find it hilarious that I take a magpie fishing with me but he loves the sunshine & fresh air. Me & my dad or my brothers will sit chatting & laughing & have a great time. I want to be able to take my baby crow too as soon as she is old enough. But it's just good to be in nature & spending time catching up coz I don't see them very often. I remember one time with my younger brother we were talking about bait & lures & the best way to attract the fish. I had a box of Froot Loops cereal that I'd ordered off a website selling American sweets & snacks (we do have Froot Loops over here in the UK but they aren't the same as the US ones because they taste pretty bland & aren't as brightly coloured due to the rules over here about sugar & additives etc). We decided to try an experiment by throwing a few Froot Loops onto the surface of the water to see if it would attract the fish & I even put one on the hook & it worked! We both caught a beautiful big carp & lots of little fish like perch etc. Was good fun. But there's something peaceful about fishing & the only thing that matters is enjoying it 💙🎣🐟
