holy crap its been a while since ive been on here...havent been fishing in months, just havent had the drive to do it i guess. been kinda busy with school. but tonight i was watching tv, and saw a show about "noodling", where anglers jump in the water and catch monster cats with their bare hands, or gloved hands, either way. no rods or reels. just their hands. that looks pretty fun. anyone try it or seen it done in person?
also, later in the program, they talked about a fishing tournament in the illinois river i believe called the "redneck tournament" where all the anglers went out on the river to catch as many asian carp as they could, by snaggin the carp when they lept from the water. with nets, hands, or just the fish jumpin into the boat. its funny to watch a carp leap from the water, hit a guy in the head and then him take a swing at the falling fish with a pole afterwards...
anyways, just thought i'd post something since i havent in forever...maybe ill pull the reels out soon and go fishin.
