Extreme Fishing/ Primitive Fishing/ Handline Fishing

I'm unsure why nobody in our class has yet taken up the challenge of hand line fishing, which is among the most primitive and universal methods of catching fish. Perhaps you are waiting for a demonstration. If so, just click on the last word of the last sentence and witness for yourself how easy this method is to use.

Lewiston and Clarkston offer plenty of fishing opportunities right in town. Of course, you need a license. Otherwise, I'd require you to go fishing with a hand line. So this is an optional and extra credit activity worth up to ten points of your final grade, depending on your approach and how much you are willing to learn in the process. You can fail to fish and still receive the ten points.

Over sixty species of fish live in the Snake River alone.

Handline fishing is also a survival technique, needless to say. So is catching a fish with your bare hands. You can watch Brian do it in less than sixty seconds by clicking the words in red. Of course, Brian's mother wanted him to release the fish, and he wanted to eat it.

I do require, however, that you create your own tool for hand line fishing. I guess I'll also continue to require people to bring those tools to class until everyone has successfully completed the assignment.

Please be prepared to discuss this topic in class and share your views on fishing.
