Bottom fishing is one way of catching fish while conserving energy.

Literally, all you do is cast your hook and bait where you think fish might lurk, and wait.

In a survival situation, fish is a relatively easy way to get your hands on protein.

Fishing for them on the bottom is effective and conserves energy; literally, beyond casting and reeling in your bait or a hooked fish, you spend no additional energy, which is important in a survival situation!
