We all know this saying: “Give a man a fish, and he’ll eat for a night. Teach a man to fish, and he’ll eat forever.” But as it turns out, the scope of that adage is a bit narrow. That’s because this golden retriever named Rani loves to fish, too! You can see her in action in the video below. She uses bait and everything! Rani has used this method to capture dozens of fish and turtles over the years. There’s something pretty adorable about a self-sufficient pup, am I right?

It was just a routine kayak fishing adventure for Isaac Brumaghim, until the craziest thing happened to the Hawaiian local. This was going to be a fishing trip he’d never forget. After reeling in a catch, he was surprised by a visitor… one with a fin and lots of sharp teeth. A shark jumped right out of the water behind him and snatched his catch right off the hook. Understandably, he was quite shaken after the incident and couldn’t do much more than laugh nervously as the adrenalin rushed through his system. (Source: Isaac Brumaghim) At the end there he had the same fear wiggle I get coming up the last few steps from a dark basement. I understand your pain Isaac.

It’s not every day that you get the opportunity to make hundreds of friends at once… But that’s exactly what this friendly lab was thinking when he found a stream chock-full of fish. When he saw his opening to say hello, he quickly leapt into the water! This will surely have you giggling just like the guy who captured the whole adorable dog-fish exchange… While this dog may have just had the time of his life, it’s a certainty the fish didn’t appreciate the intrusion.

googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display(‘VN_PG_DTAT_ATF’); }); Let me be the first to tell you that the fishing methods of these Taiwanese fishermen might be a bit unconventional, but they reap insane rewards. For hundreds of years, fishermen in Taiwan have been using a technique called fire fishing to catch sardines. The technique involves lighting bamboo sticks on fire and holding them over the sides of their fishing boats. Although it may sound a bit odd, the act of fire fishing is just as visually stimulating as it is mind-boggling. Facebook / 新北漁樂快爆 The trick to fire fishing is using sulfuric soil on the ends of the bamboo. That produces an epic spectacle that sends the sardines jumping toward the fishermen’s nets without the use of bait or fishing poles. googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display(‘VN_PG_DCBM_BTF’); }); Facebook / 新北漁樂快爆 In Taiwan, sardine season only lasts from May to July, so job security is only seasonal. For that reason, interest in fishing for sardines has diminished over the years. There were once over 300 sardine boats practicing fire fishing, but now there are only three. Facebook / 新北漁樂快爆 On average, a fire fisherman can catch upwards of three or four tons of sardines per trip and can make around $4,500 a night. Pictures don’t do this amazing feat justice. Check out the video below: You know what they say: No risk, no reward. These people certainly take that philosophy to heart! Read more: http://www.viralnova.com/fire-fishing/
