After producing some rudimentary gorge hooks out of chickens bones I set out to test their effectiveness. As luck would have it, I was successful, but further experimentation provide how frustrating and ineffective primitive gear really is compared to modern equipment.\r<br>\r<br>In the video I use chicken bones, but a wooden gorge hook would work as well, possibly even better since it might not get so soft and therefore as dull. You can see that this is a difficult spot to fish due to the snag hazards so letting fish swallow the gorge hook isnt as effective as it could be.\r<br>\r<br>The key is to let the bait be consumed totally by the fish so that it wedges in the fishes throat or stomach.\r<br>\r<br>I used modern gear including modern rod and modern line. I could only imagine how difficult it would be to be successful having to make and use primitive line and a rod.\r<br>\r<br>Catch n Cook Snowshoe Hare: \r<br>\r<br>Catch n Cook Beaver: \r<br>\r<br>Catch n Cook Native Trout: \r<br>\r<br>Catch n Cook Winter Trout: \r<br>\r<br>Catch n Cook Handline Fishing: \r<br>\r<br>Catch n Cook Wild Foraged Lunch: \r<br>\r<br>Catch n Cook Duck and Grouse: \r<br>\r<br>Catch n Cook Duck and Grouse: \r<br>\r<br>Catch n Cook Trout Over Fire: \r<br>\r<br>Catch n Cook Mystery Meat:
