Again, you’d probably be better off eating bugs than wasting your time with this. Unless you are some wilderness survival expert, I doubt you are going to be able to spear a fish. However, you will probably need to have a large net and, if you don’t have a boat, you will have to get into the water. You can locate schools of fish, or large fish, and go after them instead of just waiting. The benefit of this approach is that you are more proactive. For example, dragging a fishing net from a boat falls into this category. Instead of leaving the fish trap in one spot, this method of fishing has you getting moving the netting/trap through the water.
You will still have to wait for the fish, but it has benefits like not requiring you to do any work (so you can do other things like make your survival shelter) nor requiring you to get in the water. There are a bunch of different designs, but most work on the same principle: the fish swim in through a larger opening (or are funneled into the opening), and then cannot get out.Ī stationary fish trap is probably your best bet in a survival situation where you are staying put in one location. This method involves making a fish trap which stays put in one location. You might starve before you get a fish! I’d rather eat bugs for survival. This method simply requires too much patience and luck. It is also fine if you are fishing for recreation.īut, in a survival situation, I wouldn’t rely on it. If you are near a body of water with a lot of fish (where does this still exist in America?), then the hook-and-bait method might work. Then you throw the line into the water and hope a fish takes the bait.
You put a piece of bait, like an earthworm, on a hook which is tied to a line. This is what most of us think about when we hear the word fishing. There are many ways to fish, but they all fall into one of these 4 groups: 1.
Methods of Fishingīefore we get into the specific ways you can make a fish trap for survival, we need to go over the basic methods of fishing.

Hate to break it to you, but that method of fishing probably isn’t going to work very well, and it certainly isn’t going to be very efficient.īut fish could still be your best source of food in a survival situation, so long as you know how to make these fishing traps. In a survival situation, do you imagine yourself using the paper clip from your survival kit to fashion a fishing hook and catch yourself dinner?
