ProfCrash June 21, 2016 Share June 21, 2016 How would Nicole salt the meat? That would require the harvesting of a ton of salt water and I don't think any of them have the ability to do that. Not to mention having a large enough area to spread to water out so that it can evaporate and leave behind the salt. I am surprised that I have not seen a smoker out there. It could be that the smoking process is more complicated then we think it is and that it is not something all that effective given their current conditions. I remember one of the contestants caught some fish in an early episode and buried it after cooking it thinking that it would keep for a few days. I cannot believe that someone who is aware of using the cool of the earth for refrigeration wouldn't think of smoking as an option so it might not be an option. We don't know what Jose is planning on doing because they have not shown us any footage of what he is planning on doing. We have not seen a smoker at his camp or seen any footage of his discussing smoking fish. It could be that he is on a bay like David and knows that a net won't work so he wants to get further out and fish that way. We are giving Jose credit for a plan that we have no idea is really his plan. I know that is because of his bio but I think that we need to see what he does before getting too excited. From what I have read the fall/winter in VI is not horrific. Quote http://www.hellobc.com/vancouver-island/climate-weather.aspx Spring Spring is always a wonderful time to visit Vancouver Island. Daily temperatures range from 11-15 ºC. Hiking season in mountains above 1,110 m usually doesn't begin until July, as routes can be snow-covered or muddy until then. Summer From June through September, Vancouver Island is typically sunny and mild. Daytime temperatures in the southern region of the island (from Nanaimo to Victoria), range from the low-to-mid 20s ºC, with evenings cooling down to about 10º C. Fall Fall brings average highs of 12 ºC to most communities. By November, storm season has kicked into full gear on the west coast: Tofino can expect about 475 mm during this month alone, more than three times that of Victoria. The Vancouver Island Mountains usually receive some snowfall by mid-November. Winter Vancouver Island enjoys the most temperate winter climate in BC, which allows for outdoor pursuits such as fishing, hiking and golfing in the south-coastal areas even in January. The west coast is on storm watch through March, an ideal time to watch as surf pounds the rugged Pacific coastline. Winter also brings vast snowfalls to the Vancouver Island Mountains: Mount Washington Alpine Resort receives 860 cm of snow in an average season. So if they can golf and fish during the winter, I am assuming that Nicole's not smoking the fish is not that big of a deal. It also means that there will be plants available through the winter. So I don't think that Nicole is in any danger of starving. It also means that Jose boat strategy is probably more because of where he is located and an inability to fish off his shore then because he wants a massive haul that he then smokes.

HurricaneVal June 22, 2016 Share June 22, 2016 I think it might be tastier if you brine it first, but I would think you could soak the salmon strips in salt water for that. Nicole would probably add some lovely foraged herbs and wild garlic... It may come down to the fact that long term food storage may be a bit problematic with the bears and other scavengers around. Raccoons in particular can be wily little buggers. Sure, you can hang it from a tree to keep food away from bears, but it will still attract them and get them hanging around. And a raccoon will just rappel down to your bag and chew through it. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/41906-season-two-talk-brand-new-contestants-same-old-bears/page/21/#findComment-2348265
qtpye June 22, 2016 Share June 22, 2016 (edited) Just a quick google search on the fascinating native cultures of VI brought this up: Quote Before the arrival and exploration of Europeans, the native peoples of Vancouver Island enjoyed plentiful supplies of food: deer, bear, elk, mountain goat, seal, and bountiful quantities of fish and shellfish. One of the most central components of the native diet was pacific salmon, which were eaten fresh or preserved smoked and dried. Wild edible plants, berries and bulbs supplemented their diets. With food sources readily available and in abundance, the native peoples of this region had time to develop a culture rich in arts. The Northwest Coast First Nations tribes are known for their beautiful arts, crafts, storytelling, music, and religious and social traditions. Carvings of tower-like totem poles and ceremonial masks depict symbols from the legends of a particular tribe or family group. The symbols used in these carvings are usually the depictions of native wildlife such as the salmon, beaver, bear, wolf, raven, orca whale or frog. The early native peoples who lived on this island had an intimate relationship with the land and sea around them. The abundance of western red cedar and yellow cedar trees were an especially important resource for the aboriginal tribes of Vancouver Island and throughout the Pacific Northwest. The trunks of the cedar were used for building homes, canoes and totems. The bark of the cedar could be softened for use in clothing and blankets and woven and twisted to make durable baskets, rope, mats, and other materials for use in their homes. Rain repellent clothing, such as hats and capes, were made from the soft and fine fibers of the yellow cedar. With the diversity of plant life on Vancouver Island many medicinal uses were discovered. Native traditional medicine was connected to spiritual beliefs and plant medicines were revered as gifts from the Creator. The gathering and use of medicinal plants involved special prayers and rituals. So, I think smoking salmon is not a bad idea, but probably not crucial for survival, like it can be in other areas.

Joan Z June 24, 2016 Share June 24, 2016 Can't wait for this week's episode! Preview shows jose fell into the water. I hope that doesn't break him and make him tap out. Someone caught a mice!

derriere June 24, 2016 Share June 24, 2016 I think someone has had a word with Larry about his language because he was noticeably restrained with his "effings" and "freakings". 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/41906-season-two-talk-brand-new-contestants-same-old-bears/page/21/#findComment-2354511

I think that may just be a reflection of his improved mood after his move. Almost immediately, even before he started getting some food in the new camp, you could see mood change from moody morose depression to beginning to get back into the game. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/41906-season-two-talk-brand-new-contestants-same-old-bears/page/21/#findComment-2355930

He's pretty free with the "effing" and "freaking" as well, but they are a step up from the constant bleeping.

Jipijapa June 26, 2016 Share June 26, 2016 I don't really get why David is so unpopular. What don't people like about him, specifically? Jose's outrigger looked... bad. The fact that his boat was so tippy makes me wonder if he really knows what he's doing. I prefer "Scary Larry" to "F----in Larry" just because of his wide mood swings. I would not want to be married to a guy like that. His household must be pretty chaotic.

I think when he's angry, he has less control. When he's in a decent mood, he realizes - "Oooh, I better not saying 'fuck' on national TV."

But in the beginning he seemed very "Eeyore", to me. Frankly, I'm surprised he's still out there. I do get the impression that this is really and truly about the money for him, while for others there may be more they expect to get out of it. That's totally his prerogative, but not what I ultimately want to see from a contestant. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/41906-season-two-talk-brand-new-contestants-same-old-bears/page/21/#findComment-2361607
crabatha June 28, 2016 Share June 28, 2016 Hi all. I've been reading for awhile, and this is my 1st post. It was good to hear that I'm not the only one wondering what's been going on w/ Jose...is it the fault of production's editing, or is it that Jose only films himself when he's building something? Somehow, I think it's the latter. He seems like a perfectionist, and only want to show us the zen and sanitized version of his time on VI. What does he struggle with, what's he been eating, how is he coping, when has he explored his surroundings? Does he even have any demons to exorcise? Maybe he'll whittle us one...WHEN will he be done w/ that boat?! I was OK w/ Justin leaving, but not w/ Randy or Mike. David is a sad-sack, but I'm warming to him, especially after his "perfect day". Tragic Larry cracks me up, and I hope Nicole wins. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/41906-season-two-talk-brand-new-contestants-same-old-bears/page/21/#findComment-2363784
holly4755 June 28, 2016 Share June 28, 2016 We also saw the video of Jose finds sea snails - I think someone posted it in an earlier episode - it is on youtube - but for some reason Alone production did not decide to show it. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/41906-season-two-talk-brand-new-contestants-same-old-bears/page/21/#findComment-2363806
