Sunday morning, full cup of coffee, rain on the tin roof, classical music on the speakers, might as well start a new topic.
Many of us up here carry a survival kit not only while hunting but boating and even in our vehicles. For hunting I carry the following:
1. Metal container, 2" x 4" x 6" with a rubber seal around the top.
2. Inside the lid I have scribed the emergency signals for aircraft.
3. About 50' of fishline with 2-3 small lures.
4. A stick of bug dope.
5. Bandaides & asprin.
6. Flagging tape.
7. Permanent marker.
8. A large sheet of tin foil folded up.
9. Two large plastic heavy duty trash bags.
10. An old Scout Masters pocket knife.
11. A candle.
12. Two fire starters. (newspaper wrapped up, tied w/string and dipped in wax).
13. A lighter and waterproof matches.
14. As much old 80 lb. fishing line that I can fit.
15. Small penlight flashlight.
16. Two packages of instant soup.
16. Contents wary with the seasons. I remove the bug dope in the winter and replace it with a spark plug gap tool, heat packs, ect.
Hope this helps. This is the small kit!
