Catfish reproduction and populations can be harmed by hand fishing because brood fish are removed from nests.
St. Joseph, Mo. -- Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) agents in the state’s northwest region recently cited 16 people for illegally taking catfish by hand fishing methods. The misdemeanor citations were issued as several conservation agents working in teams monitored rivers for illegal activity. Hand fishing, sometimes called noodling or grabbing, harms the fishery for legal anglers because the catfish are removed from spawning nests.
