A "Dogged Noodler" looks like a badly spelled dish at an Asian restaurant.

Gee, that sounds like fun... NOT. No disrespect intended, but I grew up on a river and I cannot imagine this as being any sort of fun at all (but I did like the part about that guy "baiting" them with his head).

My dad's brothers used to do this and were really good at it, too.

Today's noodlers are driven more by the desire for excitement than pangs of hunger. And despite the stereotypical image of the noodler as a rough-cut "river rat" of a man, participants come from all walks of life. One of the sport's best spokespersons was Kristi Addis, Miss Teen USA 1987. Addis told judges at the pageant that one of her favorite pastimes was "grabbling for catfish on the Yalobusha River" in Mississippi

I always thought "noodling" catfish proved evolution wasn't true!

I know of a Chinese roadside cafe in Bangkok that once had...
"Fried Children" on the menu.

The first photo looks like someone went Noodling for the Lochness Monster and was successful.
The second photo looks like a possible case of piscine amputation.

Being that it was in Indonesia, I'm not too certain that was a typo .

I ate the Fried Chicken at the place, and it was very good. The photo op was priceless.

The guys that go hand fishing for snapping turtles are a real scream.
