Ever made the famous "Pepsi can stove"? Good for lunch on the ice, as well as camping..
How about them setting up their own fishing bucket, and tricking it out, like I showed in a previous, recent thread.
Lures are a great choice. Sportsman's and Cabela's have very reasonable spinner components.
Bring a bunch of wire, wood, PVC, rope, etc..., and see what they can invent?..
Have you ever read "The Backwoodsman" magazine? LOADED with projects...
Minnow or crawdad traps? Plans all over online...
Try Youtube and search "DIY+fishing", or "How to+fishing", etc.
Make spears or PVC bows and go try to hit carp in the spring. A 5' long, 3/4" PVC pipe with a 10" dowel run down inside to stiffen the middle makes a functional bow of about 30 lbs draw. A ramin dowel can be sharpened and barbed as is, or with a nail or wire barb. Go to [url "http://paleoplanet.org"]paleoplanet.org[/url] and look at fish spears.. pushbroom handle shaft and wooden or metal head...
Make cane poles. Look up [url "http://franksupply.com"]franksupply.com[/url].
See what kind of lures you can make from tin cans, and try to fish with them...
Homemade leader keepers.
Homemade stringers, see plans all over internet...
I'll think of more later, maybe.
