No doubt bucktail jigs in both fresh & saltwater are killer for a variety of species, however if survival would be a deciding factor I'd want something else. Survival in terms of lost in the woods, on a tropical island, drifting on a raft somewhere might be the exception but even then, something good for shallow water presentations and less likely to be snagged and lost would be at the top of my list. In shallow water I'd kiss the bucktail goodbye and definately prefer a rapala type lure if artificial is what we are talking about or better yet a selection of plastic jerkbaits, hooks and lighter jig heads. Maybe even a versitle single hook spoon would serve better in the long run.
Then again, forget the fishing tackle, put me on the tropical island with a good looking woman. She must have great sense of humor, be capable of catching-cleaning-cooking the catch etc....
