Now I'm wondering where noodling is on this scale.

What is noodling?

[–] Alpha71@lemmy.world 9 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Noodling is basically cat fish hunting by allowing the catfish to bit onto your arm and you lift it out of the water onto the shore.

Wow. Thanks.

Probably worse, unless they are less likely to pull the fish up to begin with unless being kept? I doubt the hook is anywhere near as traumatic as the rest of the process.
