Hi, I’m Dub Paetz

I was born in Michigan and spent most of my life hanging out in nature. I’ve been a hunting and fishing fanatic since I was a very young child. I became a fishing guide in Idaho in my early twenties and spent almost 2 decades living in the mountains of Idaho. I’ve since moved back into Northern Michigan where I now call home. I was blessed to be cast on the History Channels hit series ALONE for season 11. It was filmed in the Arctic Circle in the Northwest Territories of Canada.

Wilderness Skills Classes

I am proud to finally offer some classes to teach people all of the wilderness skills and survival tips I’ve picked up throughout the years. If you are interested in learning some plant ID, bushcraft and primitive fishing skills, I’d love to have you.

Youtube Channel

I have created a wilderness survival Youtube channel if you’re into that. I hope to keep adding a lot of content throughout the year focusing mostly on living off the land, learning to Identify wild plants and primitive living skills.
