Squirrel Fishing

Leave it to Nick Stein to do crazy things like go Squirrel Fishing. As I understand, the concept is to bait the squirrel with a peanut tied to the end of a string, and then reel the squirrel in as if you were fishing. It’s quite bizarre and probably only works on the ultra-tame squirrels we have here at the U of M.
Honestly, it reminds me of those times at camp that we baited squirrels with peanut butter and captured them under plastic wash bins. It was quite amusing. Apparently some of the others transfered the squirrels into plastic garbage bags and hauled them out to the lake and dumped them in the water.
