My father spoke of doing that in France during World War Two. However, they tossed the grenades from shore and collected the stunned fish for dinner without harming themselves. Regards, Mike

It looks like the guy dropping the grenade is looking at his wrist watch before he lets go. What's up with that? My knowledge of hand grenades is limited to WWII movies.

Russia?

In Czech slang to fish with russian hook means using handgrenades. We seen too many russian soldiers in my country.

Over 40 something years ago I was standing near canal bank fishing in what is now a major city(Miami). All of a sudden theres was a big underwater explosion out of nowhere. Some bluegill started floating up to surface. All I could fiqure out was years before when they dug out/cut canal they used explosives and one happen to go off years later when I happen to be standing near.

Hi all

It's just irresponsible hooliganism and it should be illegal. No one should fish that way. It just kills everything within a certain radius and bottom dwelling animals too. Imagine how few fish there would be if everybody used this method when they wanted a couple of fish for dinner.

Mike, it is illegal to fish with a hand grenade or explosives in all 50 states. And possession of a live hand grenade or even dynamite is very difficult. It is a joke Mike. People years ago have used dynamite to stun fish, but it was illegal even then. I am not saying it was or even is not done, but it is certainly not an accepted practice in our country. What soldiers do in wartime to feed themselves is not Germain to what ordinary citizens do to catch fish Now as for Russian occupiers in eastern Europe, well that is a different kettle of fish.

Grenades depending on type and who made them generally have a delay of 4 to 6 seconds. The guy is trying to cook off the grenade by holding it for a few seconds before dropping it inorder to get it to go off at a shallower depth.

Why use grenades when telephoning is a lot less dangerous and doesn't make all that noise?

Thank you Jim. I guess he miscalculated, go figure. :laughing:

I guess he did! Another second and he would have transformed himself from fisherman to fishbait!
