#3 Real fishermen don't use anything bigger than a cherry bomb or M80.

#5 Never thought to use dynamite for earthworms. Sure make the digging a lot easier. But picking up the little pieces would be more work Ima thinking.

#6 SteveS: Even more work would be putting all those itty bitty pieces on the hook......

#9 It's easier and not so dangerous to get one of those phnes with the crank, run a wire into the water, and crank the phone. The fish float to the surface and if n ot picked up eventually swim away. an It's noisless. So I've heard.

#10 I've used one of those generators to get worms to surface, doubt it's powerful enough to stun fish.

#12 Giant Frog-leg(s) hunting I'm willing to tolerate, but FISHING??? As far as I know, eating [contaminated?] frog legs isn't popular in that part of Californey, unless someone just likes seeing legless frogs squimper about.
