how to whittle a fishing hook
Whether you are camping in the depths of the forest or hiking along the Wilderness Trail, it is an important skill to understand the basic elements of wilderness survival.
While in most cases you may not be able to look for large games on the fly, you can easily cut a piece of wood into hooks and use it to catch fish in a nearby pond or creek.
The process is relatively easy and can be done with two hardwoods and a knife.
Once you grind the wood into a humble hook, tie it to a bamboo pole or stick with a line or rope and throw your line into the water for a blow.
Description difficulty: it\'s quite easy to search for two dry hardwood floors in your area.
You have to grind the straps flat, so the choice of two is at least 1-Long 1/2.
Finally, you will get a 1 inch long Hardwood strip and another 1/2 long Hardwood strip.
Scrape each of the hardwood floors with a knife until each is relatively smooth.
Create a hole at the bottom of 1-
1/8 wooden bars-
Inches in diameter.
Make incision marks at 45 degreesdegree angle.
When you insert the \"hook\" section of the hook, it looks like a \"L\" that is slightly tilted up at the bottom \".
Carve a point with a diameter of 1/8 at the tail of 1/2
An inch of wood.
Test this point by inserting it into the hole you carved in step 3.
Stop engraving if the tail end is close to sliding into the hole. Press the 1/2-
Wood strips of inches in the forward hole to ensure a tight fit.
Free end of engraving hook (the 1/2-
An inch of wood from a 1-1 Wooden Strip1/2 inches)
Stab a sharp point with a knife.
Continue to cut the wood until the hook is sharp.
The hook point requires bayfish, so be sure to be as sharp as possible.
