I was a little surprised as much grit as she has that she didn’t get that hook out. If I was going to fish a lot to survive in the wilderness, I would have read up on the procedure.
What Carleigh went through was a heart breaker. I have no doubt she has all the grit in the world needed to survive as long as she'd want to. I really doubt there was anything that she didn't try to get that hook out and I'd be shocked if there was some simple trick or way to get it out that she somehow missed. She's a sweet girl and it's a heartbreaker to see her out of it so soon. I'm excited to watch this season and whoever wins this will have really earned something for sure with this season full of tough competitors.
I remember reading about the fishing line method in Outdoor Life or Field & Stream back 50 years or so ago.
Anyone surprised the hipster walked off last night? I had him pegged for being an early out, but I figured he'd have a couple weeks in him at least before tapping out.
Millenial :-)I thought he would go a little longer but it didn't seem like he tried very hard.

I told the wife, he's a *****.
He seemed to be clueless. Anyone that has fished much would have been working that river more. He seemed to think you just go to one spot and keep trying that same place over and over.
Oh and the accounting guy that put his fish in a small holding area.... I told the wife immediately, bad idea. You are in the wilderness, the animals there survive by taking advantage of any mistake another animal makes.
I think trails would have been much better idea.It's a grassy place. Snare the game trails. Logs? I think that was a bad idea, too.
