Disasters happen anytime and any where. And when disaster strikes, you may not have much time to respond. A highway spill of hazardous material could mean instant evacuation. After a disaster, local officials and relief workers will be on the scene, but they cannot reach everyone immediately.

Fish contain protein, vitamins and fats. They differ widely in size, eating habits and diet, but all can be attracted and caught with appropriate bait. Angling is not the most effective method of catching fish-the night line and gill net will give better results.
