Field Notes

Notes:

I've found that the vine part of this plant, when a dark green color, makes excellent cordage. It works well as a rope for about a day, and then it dries out and breaks easier. But, even after drying out, it still is pretty good. I used it to make a pretty good fishing pole. But, it doesn't make good fishing line because its too thick, but as rope or cordage, it's pretty good.
