Dixie Cafe, Eufauls, Oklahoma

This is a Fine Art photo of the 'Dixie Cafe' sign in Eufauls, Oklahoma. There is nothing finer than fresh caught deep fried catfish, especially is you noodled it yourself. It's simple you find a water hole in a muddy swampy place and stick your bare hand down in the water and just feel around. When you feel the first bight, you know it is time to be noodling. So you stick your hand further into the mouth of a 50 pound cat fish and grab hold of whatever you can, twisting, spinning and torquing your body into odd angles you bring up this very angry fish to the surface. Noodling takes definite strength, a pinch of courage and good amount of plumb being out of your head. There are variations of what this fine red neck sport is called depending on what side of the river you live on. It could be called; Catfishing, Grabbling, Hogging, Tickling, Gurgling and Stumping. Fine family fun on a Sunday afternoon, however, there are few hidden dangers, besides drowning. One is the pesky probability that a catfish vacated his hole and a new residence has moved in, like an alligator, beaver, snake, muskrat or even a snapping turtle. On these occasions some noodlers have returned home without a finger or other extremities. The September 4, 2011 issue of the New York Times Magazine contains some amazing pictures of contestants in a noodling contest. Noodlers, I am speaking to you, this photo if s for you. The Dixie cafe where cat fish fries every night is the photo you want in your camper.
