Electrofishing

I was the best bucket holder the world had ever seen. I looked like a dime and a half. Two of the Pennsylvania DEP agents came to Woodcock and showed everyone how to electrofish. It is a pretty simple process. You shock the fish into submission then catch them in a net. The great diversity found in the fish we caught was an indicator of the health of Woodcock creek. We caught over 10 diferent species of fish!! We even played a game of fish bingo. Andrew won.
