First, I hope everyone is alright from all the horrible tornadoes!
Second, a person once related to me an unusual fishing method. He had an old hand crank phone from the farm. Instead of throwing it away, he extended the output wires. These wires were submerged under the surface of a creek. Then he would crank to create a current.
He stated that it shocked any living thing between these electrodes. Fish would start surfacing. And they would float there long enough for him to net or grab them. I find this hard to believe. I have to admit I have never heard of such a thing.
Now here's the kicker. With all the hand crank LED lights and hand crank Radios that are in production these days, would these have enough current production to be used in this 'fishing' method? I see these small LED lights that are pretty small and compact. Sure begs the question, should I keep some wire and hand crank light in my PSK?
Thanks for any feedback in advance.
