For Oklahoma fishermen, there's nothing quite like the thrill of catching a 60-pound catfish with their bare hands. For hundreds of years, they've been diving into creeks, rivers and lakes, in search of bank-dwelling catfish. These murky waters are home to the wild world of noodling. OKIE NOODLING captures the excitement of a sport that has hooked three Oklahoma families for generations. The award- winning documentary OKIE NOODLING chronicles the fishing tradition from its roots as a Native American hunting practice to its present- day status as a sport with its own distinctive sub-culture. OKIE NOODLING includes a colorful cast of characters who impart their philosophies, techniques, horror stories and passion for the sport.
