One of my former neighbors hemmed up a big beaver in the North Fork. He looked like a jigsaw puzzle after they got him stapled back together.
I used to do it, but after seeing a 100 pound plus alligator snapper, I reconsidered the wisdom of my behavior.

Just wish I had more time to do it now.

I like it, but it is dangerous. We have had 2 fatality's on Kaw Lake. Just can't get anybody to go.
My brother and his friends are into it in Osage county. Used to hang out with some guys who liked it back in the day. Dont remember anybody missing any fingers...
