I may have posted this before here or on Facebook. I was doing a little house cleaning on my desktop and came across this picture of the drum lines the guys use around here with the cut wooden dowels.

I remember my brother catching a big drum years back with one of them stuck in it's mouth

It's called "stick fishin'". Kinda cool, we often catch oversize redfish that have a staging with hook and wooden dowel it has broken off the main trotline still in it's mouth.
