Luckily, there is a river nearby with a healthy population of game fish in it, but could you manage to construct rudimentary fishing tackle with natural elements and procure the necessary baits to hook up with a lunker? Well, The Revolution's resident survival expert and New York Times Best Selling Author, Tim MacWelch, has some crafty pioneering tips for us that will ultimately fill our bait buckets with succulent attractants that fish can't resist. Tim further explains that aside from making irresistible bait, worms, grubs, grasshoppers, and the like, also double as an exceptional survival protein for humans, too.

Tim MacWelch, Survivalist and New York Times best-selling author, says some areas are home to more disease carrying hogs than others.
