flyingfisherman Posted November 7, 2012 Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 I was up in Morayshire in October with work. While everyone else was sleeping off hangovers from happy hour in the mess, i was out in the woods.. unfortunately no rifle but just the knife and some bits and bobs. A colleague and i had a rake around and then cooked them up with some belly pork for a light lunch! Being outdoors even without a rifle really is the mutts nuts! Chanterelles and belly pork!

flyingfisherman Posted November 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 Brilliant! (& I'm jealous of that stove!) Those stoves are brilliant! He does a good deal too from the states.. Anyone with access to CNC type engineering gear could make a similar design.. Its so light and compact, it lives in my stalking rucksack with a fire steel and some tinder. My water bottle and cup in there as well and its a lightweight setup to use on a wet day or if you get caught out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tikka 260 Posted November 8, 2012 Report Share Posted November 8, 2012 Food for The Gods..... very envious ( as I am stuck on a boat in the middle of the Caspian) The stove looks a great bit of stand by kit ..... I'll research that one! Thanks for sharing your day. P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingfisherman Posted November 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 Yeah its horses for courses i suppose really.. i carry the below kit, also whats not shown is a waterproof hammock. reason being (and it depends where i am and what im doing) but safety. The idea is that ive got an ultra lightweight setup which would see me through a night or two on the hill or in the woods.. I have a gas stove also but really find it bulky and unnecessary to carry in the sack. If i take my gas stove, i leave it with the bacon in the truck.. In the top pic, i have a jerven bivvy bag which is just something else.. Its not just great for a safety aid but if your sat in a highseat (or as i do with NV sit there all night) it keeps you warm and dry. Its not compressed there and packs up into half the size. I carry a DC4 knife sharpener, a knife, a small axe (again, depending on what im upto and where im off), my water bottle and tin, a fire steel and the stove. Theres a pic of the stove to give you an idea of its size. Its weight is about the same as a CD case too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
