COUNTRY PEOPLE ARE SO WEIRD AND FUCKED UP

― TOMBOT, Monday, 26 December 2005 05:54 (twenty years ago)

They look pretty normal and fun-loving to me.

― gypsy mothra (gypsy mothra), Monday, 26 December 2005 05:55 (twenty years ago)

(Accepting a fairly broad definition of "fun.")

― gypsy mothra (gypsy mothra), Monday, 26 December 2005 05:56 (twenty years ago)

people aren't weird, fish are!

― inger lynde (Jody Beth Rosen), Monday, 26 December 2005 05:58 (twenty years ago)

I'm also wondering if those are some kind of extra-special grabblin' gloves.

The Economist weighs in, although they call it "noodling."

The relevant Georgia statute. Grabbling season is March 1-July 15, but only "without the aid of any device, hook, snare, net, or other artificial instrument and without the aid of any scuba equipment, air hose, or other artificial breathing apparatus."

― gypsy mothra (gypsy mothra), Monday, 26 December 2005 06:17 (twenty years ago)

It is, indeed, noodling. And that shit is dangerous. And wearing a glove means you can't come in the clubhouse.

― Forksclovetofu (Forksclovetofu), Monday, 26 December 2005 07:12 (twenty years ago)

You grabble gloveless?

― gypsy mothra (gypsy mothra), Monday, 26 December 2005 07:33 (twenty years ago)

ok, that deer is the most wtf thing of the entire thread

Okie Noodling

― gypsy mothra (gypsy mothra), Monday, 26 December 2005 08:21 (twenty years ago)

I would really be up for doing this.

Gypsy and Forks On The Muddy. The docu "Okie Noodling" is fantastic.

Catfish lurk under old logs and in muddy banks and messes of garbage and scrap metal and weeds. They have long sharp spines on their face that can go right throught a man's palm. That, along with rusty, sharp car parts, glass, rocks, snakes and god knows what else means that if you're nuts enough to stick an unprotected arm into the abyss in the hopes that a seventy pound fish will try to FUCKING EAT YOUR ARM, well then: you're an athlete in my book.

― Forksclovetofu (Forksclovetofu), Monday, 26 December 2005 18:37 (twenty years ago)

I've been finned by a few catfish, and there's no way in hell I'd do that without gloves.

At this point in your first noodling excursion, many questions muddle your mind. How did I get myself into this? Will there be a cottonmouth in this hole, or a beaver, or a snapping turtle? Do alligators live in these parts? If a catfish is home, will it really bite hard like they say? How bad will it hurt? They say big cats will swallow your entire hand, start spinning and rip the skin off your arm. What will that feel like? How did my noodling instructors get the nicknames Nubbins and Three-Fingered Jack?">At this point in your first noodling excursion, many questions muddle your mind. How did I get myself into this?

athletes...or idiots? It's always difficult to tell, in all sports, really.

Noodling for Flatheads is a great book, back from when I read books.

― TOMBOT, Tuesday, 27 December 2005 14:42 (twenty years ago)

This shit is nasty.

― Je4nn3 ƒur¥ (Je4nne Fury), Tuesday, 27 December 2005 14:54 (twenty years ago)

maybe YOUR shit is nasty, huh, did you ever think about THAT

― TOMBOT, Tuesday, 27 December 2005 15:00 (twenty years ago)

I've never seen Jeanne stick her arm into a mud pit to try to have a catfish bite it off to "catch it" = Jeanne's shit is not nasty.

The fish look like goddamned dinosaurs.

The girls are cute, though.

the only cute thing on this entire internet webpage is that little fucked up deer.

― Allyzay must fight Zolton herself. (allyzay), Tuesday, 27 December 2005 16:39 (twenty years ago)

Hahahahahahahaha (otm)

― Je4nn3 ƒur¥ (Je4nne Fury), Tuesday, 27 December 2005 16:40 (twenty years ago)

I don't understand why it's smelling that stanky fish. I thought deers were vegetarians? It's obviously confused. Though I would be too so I'm not sure why I seem to think a deer is above being confused.

― Allyzay must fight Zolton herself. (allyzay), Tuesday, 27 December 2005 16:51 (twenty years ago)

maybe it's a pet, a domestic deer might be pretty confused.

― Maria (Maria), Tuesday, 27 December 2005 17:39 (twenty years ago)

Deer are well known fish eaters.

― Forksclovetofu (Forksclovetofu), Tuesday, 27 December 2005 18:22 (twenty years ago)

Why are we not all childishly roffling to women...pulling monster catfish (weighing up to 50lbs!) out of their holes?
