I learned to do this 5 years ago as part of a wilderness survival program. I was highly skeptical at first, but it was much easier in reality. I believe the practice is banned in most states because it is so effective at catching fish.

How bizarre that such a primitive technique could be banned. You’d think elaborate fishing lures and rods would also be illegal if using your hands is wrong.
