I mentioned to Doug doing an impromptu field test of fishing kits. I have the Tra-Con, Exploration units and both freshwater and ocean opportunities. Naturally, Doug Hinted I do a article for Equipped. Ill be collecting a few other items,ie gill net, speed hook and frogging spear ( and authorization from F&G!). It occured to me there may be a few other classes of gear Doug has not had the opportunity,time or resources to evaluate. I know he has made reference to snowhoes and large 'survival knives.' Are there any items of interest out there? Let us know, lets get the site moving again.<br><br>

Chris,<br><br>Be sure to include the fishing items in the kits described here, especially Doug's kits. It will be interesting to see how they stack up against more comprehensive kits.<br><br>Thanks<br><br>Willie Vannerson<br>McHenry, IL
