Uh ... Fish Finder ...?

Not ONE of those bikini-clad hotties with the bows and arrow actually shot even one fish!

It didn't matter whether they had big titties, or little titties, or had tattoos, or knott. NOT ONE FISH.

I had to watch the video three times just to make sure!

Pretty gross and bloody...but recreation is recreation is destruction is rebirth and makes money for gear dealers.[Click to View YouTube Video]

Imagine "clean carp-killing" ethical debates, if you will. And welcome to the Twilight Zone.

Clear Lake is a huge tournament. The first year my older brother shot (early seventies) he won a thousand to split with his partner, but they ruled that from then on no one could step out of their boats, which is how Mike shot all the time.

Back then, the Clear Lake carp were hauled out to the local orchards for fertilizer, according to him.

why troll when you can use a "dream catcher"!

Probably only Jim will get this, but I caught Country Joe and The Fish at Monterey. Reprised here for all you sweet things in the attic or on a shelf. This was back when people ate real corn (:45), not "corn dogs".

No, no, no. Back when they used cat-gut for BASS STRINGS, and went out to the seashore...[Click to View YouTube Video]One more cast now...

A Hawaiian local's method...
Works on a sea shore in off shore wind conditions but may work in a stream with current as well?
(of greatly dubious legality)

~ 1 case of cheap beer
~ Large trash bag
~ 200' of polypropylene line
~ many double leader out riggers
~ many glow sticks

Inflate the trash bag and tie it to the end of the buoyant polypro line.
Feed it out and every 6' ~ 10' put a double leader line with baited hooks with a glow stick on each main/leader line junction.

Pop a beer, sit back, strum your ukulele and chug a few or 10 beers.
Check long line/ rinse and repeat :)

Or my other response:

If you troll for Fish...

It's got to have a catchy 'tag line' yet be pretty inane before
Russ will chime in with a typically witty, some what esoteric, snyde comment!
