kinda like hand fishing for giant flat head cats.
Sure
Can be fun. Sure get a big fish with your hands. Or a beaver. Or get caught in brush pile. Or stuck. Or a few fingers taken off by a turtle.
Ill stick to my rod n reel thanks
Noodling is a blast!!! But I’ve seen guys’ hole arms filleted to the bone from giant cats.
 
I have came across some in a similar way, but copper heads. Go playing in the woods, and bam right next to me while I was chilling taking a seat. 2ft copper head reared back ready to strike. Think to myself, well this is it, i am going to get bit. What am i gonna do....think think......some 2 mins (felt like forever) pass, I got my plan worked out in my head.......gonna get bit no matter what i do, grab the head and run to the house to call the ambulance.......alright prepared, turn my head towards the copper and slowly. He's gone (during some point of my thinking process).
Yep still went home (had to change the pants)

Gawd....what a relief to see he was gone!! "Whew!

Noodling is big around here where I am at. But me catching a snapping turtle as big as a 20 in rim is a bit surprising. I thought I was bringing up a tire at first. Rod and reel for me.

Haha....yeah same here....i was meant to be on top of the water catching fish....not below the surface!!
 
Our biggest problems for noodling are snapping turtles, fresh water tortoises, and cottonmouths. During the summer especially cottonmouths will rest on the banks of the shore collecting sun and they’re always around when you wanna fish the bastards!

Blues bite hard. Flats do not.
Neither bone crushing
Maybe scuff ya real good from the lil rough teeth shit they have. But not seen bull shark wounds come from this haha.
Beaver will filet you fast though. Real fast.
