Man Drowns While Noodling In Oklahoma County (AP)
A man died while noodling with five friends in a creek east of Edmond.
Edmond Police haven’t identified the victim, who is described as a Hispanic male in his 30s.
Police say the men were noodling in a creek about 150 yards north of State Highway 66. Noodling is a practice that involves catching large catfish with bare hands.
Police say the men split up for a while, then found the victim submerged around 3 PM.
He was taken to an Edmond hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
Were large quantities of liquor involved, or just stupidity of the sober variety?

Noodling can be hazardous to your health.
I’m just glad I didn’t try it in the dark after a night of Christmas Ale, garlic pickles, and Skillbillies.
Unless you were Cary Grant stranded on an island with Leslie Caron circa 1965, why would you do this?
Great movie on the subject titled "Okie Noodling."

Your anti-noodling bias is showing, noodlephobe!
