Blake Shelton revealed recently in a magazine that there is something he used to do and may do again that Gwen may not have known til now.

He says "I got a lot of fishing ponds there on my property, so now I mostly catch large mouth bass.  But it wasn't always that easy.  Back when I even moved to Nashville, when I was still in high school, we'd go noodling.  You get in the water and you just reach your hand down under the rocks, feeling around for a big catfish.  Then I realized, that's why God made fishing poles.  But I do still watch those noodling videos."  This is according to "Cowboys and Indians" magazine.

It is pretty well known that I love to fish for catfish and I have caught some whoppers but never with my bare hands.  Nope, I value my fingers too much.  You go putting your bare hands under rocks you night just pull up a turtle or a snake.  No, thank you.

Let's take a look at some noodling videos.  Some people even call it "hillbilly handfishing".  They are fun to watch.
