Thanks Pappy,Bowartist and JimBob I will probably use chicken liver or worms for bait,set it like a trot line and hope I catch something.

Also I have included the picture of a saura indian stone v shape fish weir upstream from my property.these fish weirs are quite comon and can be seen at low water on the dan smith and mayo rivers.Nets fish baskets were used in these fish dams also spearing and bow fishing.

NICE! Where I'm from, there would be catfish hangin from those at the end of the day. Deeper water of course.
Hell-of-a lot better than noodlin!!
Great job.

Nice set there, buddy. You could probably practice on an ugly, barefoot creature I hear hangs out on a mountain near you. I bet he'd squall if you hooked him.
