You guys/gals are awesome :

Reliance on one’s own capabilities, judgment, or resources. While the idea of becoming a more self-reliant man or woman isnt as mainstream as it once was, I believe that learning how to develop self-reliance in your own life continues to be the key to getting ahead in life. I am proud to part of a community of oudoorsman that believe in self reliance to feed and take care of their families, while have a good time . So while your out there stocking up the freezer with fish , remember those that need some help- save a few fillets for the neighbor or elderly family friend that may be running a little short on supplies and drop a bag off every once and awhile.
