My taxes helped pay for the time spent writing and voting on this really fine piece of legislation:
'Noodling' Texans will be able to use their bare hands to catch catfish, using their fingers as bait, officially legalizing "noodling." State-issued fishing licenses and freshwater fishing stamps are required. HB2189 Read more: http://www.star-telegram.com/2011/08/30/3324996/hundreds-of-new-texas-laws-go.html#ixzz1WcmDm6PS Can anyone top that? |

Unfortunately trout and salmon 'tickling' is still illegal in Britain - how enlightened these Texans are!

Luvvit Ellie! Wouldn't fancy noodling for pirahnas though.
Salmon-tickling sounds fun for the salmon Lynton. How about halibut-fondling - is that still illegal? |

I would also not want to noodle a Great White Shark.
Any other shark for that matter. |

I've actually had this vision of people trying to use those foam swimming noodles. The visual makes me laugh!

Exactly, these HUGE manly looking fishermen using neon pink, yellow, lime green and aqua blue noodles beating the crap out of a catfish......
again....and again....and again....and again.... over and over until the fish can't take it anymore and dies. |

Being in Texas I suppose he might then kick it a little with the point of his cowboy boot. Then it jumps (stupid neanderthal catfish nervous systems!)and he beats it some more!

Exactly! Then, and only then, he'd take out his rifle and shoot it!
