Awesome Fishing

(NSFW: Language) These folks seem a lot less serious about fishing than the enthusiasts we saw a while ago, hence their response to their catch being stolen by a big ass shork shawk shakkk shark.

(NSFW: Language) These fishermen had the catch of a lifetime, with a 600lb marlin on the end of their line. Unfortunately, two tiger sharks had different thoughts about who should collect this bounty.

These Finnish divers head underwater to look for fish, capturing and sharing their adventures below the ice. It’s even more amazing once you realize where they’re standing. (Thanks, everyone!)

We always thought that sitting out on the ice, waiting for fish to bite sounded like a difficult way to get a meal. But in Canada, they take their ice fishing seriously (and perhaps a bit too literally).

We’re eagerly anticipating another fascinating, adrenaline-and-Bering-Sea-soaked season of Deadliest Catch starting April 11, even though our favorite Captain Phil is no longer with us. RIP Phil.

Here’s the perfect gift for lazy weekend warriors who like to fish. You’ll never cast a line again with this motorized vessel lets you drive your bait to the location of your choice using a remote control.
