How to catch a fish with your bare hands (idea)

2000-09-06T20:19:42Z

I have actually seen this work. I was in the mountains of southern California near Mount Whitney. The stream was full of grass and weeds. The trick was to slowly move you hands through the grass and weeds. When you felt something that wasn't weeds or grass immediately attempt to throw it out on the bank. I was unsuccessful at this however the authentic cowboy who was teaching us performed it many times. No fish tickling was involved.
