I saw a documentary on noodling on PBS a few months ago. It was really interesting, but I wouldn't try it for myself. These guys are pretty tough (stupid?), as I wouldn't want a bunch of snakes, turtles, gators, whatever getting into my pants/shirt/underwear while I feel around for a giant catfish.
