Survival Fishing – Part 3

If the water you’re near isn’t more than waist deep you can spear fish. To make the spear, you can use a sapling that’s been carved to a sharp point, or you can attach sharp metal, or sharp bone or a knife.

To spear fish you need to get the spear into the water and slowly get close to the fish. Then you should thrust the spear into the fish. Make sure not to throw the spear because you can’t afford to lose it. Don’t pick up the fish with the spear, it may come off, hold the spear in one hand and grab the fish with another.
