Do you know what “noodling” is? It has nothing to do with the noodles that you like to eat. In the【小题1】 (south) United States, noodling is a kind of fishing where you just use your hands. Most of the fish 【小题2】 (catch) by noodlers are catfish, which like to hide under overhanging banks. They think their 【小题3】 (enemy) can’t see them, so they’re safe. But they’re not! Noodlers feel around under the stream bank, size resting catfish, 【小题4】 pull them out of the water.
I learned about noodling when I lived 【小题5】 the State of Ohio. Later I moved to Colorado,【小题6】trout (鳟鱼) swim in mountain streams. I wondered 【小题7】 noodling would work on trout, but my friends told me they were too smart and too fast.
Well, I thought it would be worth 【小题8】(try). In the fall, big, beautiful brown trout move into the shallow parts of the Cache la Poudre River. I found a place and, luckily, there were two big trout. When I tried to get close to them, they 【小题9】 (hide) themselves under the overhanging bank. I went over and “snacked” my hands under the bank. I felt one! And it didn’t move. 【小题10】 (care), I slid both hands the fish, and then quickly lifted it out of the water onto the bank. Success! I could really noodle trout.
