But what if your life really did depend on it? Would you be able to catch your dinner in a survival scenario?<br>It starts with putting together a DIY survival fishing kit. With a few essentials in a compact, portable package, you can be prepared to catch fish anywhere, any time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And while you can definitely stuff this survival fishing kit in your bug-out bag in case of an emergency, it\u2019s not only useful for an end-of-the-world scenario. I often take a kit like this with me on hiking and <a href=\"https:\/\/techwriteredc.com\/best-hatchets-axes-for-backpacking\/\">backpacking trips<\/a>, just in case I come across some fishy-looking water or, heaven forbid, get lost and need to fend for myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Creating Your DIY Survival Fishing Kit<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When putting together your DIY fishing kit, it\u2019s important to remember its purpose. This is ultimately made with an eye toward fishing for survival, not for sport. You\u2019re most likely going to be catching smaller species like sunfish and perch, or possibly crappie, trout or small bass depending on where you are. It\u2019s not about catching huge fish, it\u2019s about putting food in your belly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep that in mind as you select your tackle. I find that live bait is usually not too hard to come by in the backcountry, and it\u2019s typically more effective than artificial lures in a survival situation. Most of the tackle in my fishing kit is intended for fishing with whatever bugs, grubs and worms I can find (though I do include a few choice lures, as we\u2019ll soon see).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s also okay if your kit looks a little different than mine. What follows are the select items of fishing tackle that I consider to be essential, but if you favor a different style of hook or have a particular lure you don\u2019t want to do without, feel free to adapt your survival fishing kit accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>#kt-layout-id_5b0ac0-03 > .kt-row-column-wrap{align-content:start;}:where(#kt-layout-id_5b0ac0-03 > .kt-row-column-wrap) >

First and foremost, you need a good quality line that won\u2019t break or weaken.
