Sorry, I don't review websites. I would recommend the addition of a throw net for speed of use.
Good luck.

Just to be clear, the campaign doesnt consist in you reviewing any website, it consists in the following: if you review any of the items on the list with two pictures and a minimal opinion of the product you get $8 for each review, which in most cases equates to a 30% discount. Regarding the throw net, thats interesting, maybe I can find one that can also be used as a bug screen.
Inva true bug out situation, time is also an important commodity. If you need to stop for hours to fish, you may not reach your destination; bit you do need freash food....
The other thing you need to be ready for, is eating your catch raw. Cooking attracts others who are hungry by the smell and smoke. Additionally, raw fish is a good source for extra water.
Once you get where you're going, cooking late at night is a good safety step; especially on a windy day! Using a Dakota hole fire or a rocket stove, will minimize smoke and make you harder to find!
The fishing yoyos on your site are a good prepping supply but they need to be set right. Following the directions is actually wrong. They need to be set low enough that if a fish triggers the reel recovery, the bait is still in the water. That gives the fish a second chance, and also hides your equipment. Rubbing dirt into the tie string, will also help hide it.

Nice commentary right there! I try to curate the bug out bag list to contemplate different bug out situations, including different conspicuity levels or signatures, in some situations it could be wise to hold in place say in the middle of the trip, in some you are really bugging in, etc. I try to make the list as comprehensive as possible while still using the "bug out" name just for communication purposes. Which throw net would you choose ?
I'd look at a 12 foot dia for me. For the ladies a 10 foot would be a better match, and a lower weight. Get the finest mesh, for bait; you may need too actually stop and fish.
Buying an assortment of hooks, and line is a good prep too. Buy up what's cheap today, that can't be built by hand later; you won't regret it

Hi Toby I added this one to the list: https://www.waivio.com/object/fqf-basicgear-3ft-radius-freshwater-and-saltwater-cast-net-with-3-8-inch-mesh
since the 6ft radius version was out of stock, and considering the weight of even this one is already 3.31 pounds (on the edge of the value/weight ratio for a bug out bag I would say).It seems to be a quality net and nobody has anything bad to say about it apparently. Maybe you, your son or someone in your family would like to give it a try, review it and get the $8 in rewards, which amounts to 36% of its price.
I was also thinking in the context of a bag you have to carry with one of these nets, how could one bypass the bulk of the weight(the sinkers), by using some alternative material that one can acquire on site.
Any ideas?
You loose the time saving gain, if you need to look for something heavy to add to make it work. It could be used to cover a rough lean to; to allow leaves to be added on top, for roofing.

You say that because you dont plan on carrying the bag on your back, sometimes time is of the essence and sometimes time doesnt matter, and pounds do. Do you like that net I showed you?
