It's 16-year-old Kyle Naegeli's hobby. And the Katy High School junior is quite good at it. He claims to have caught hundreds of fish using this method.

Naegeli has been a drain angler for four years now, using a hook and fishing line, with hot dogs (“the cheap ones” he says) and shad fish acting as bait.

“Sometimes it takes a few hours to catch something,” he says, maintaining that sewer fishing takes patience. Naegeli doesn't eat the sewer fish, owing to its questionable origins. The fish swim into the sewer line from a nearby pond.

Their sewers are connected to their ponds ?
Yuk.
Way to kill the ecosystem, America.
It's the storm water drain, we call them sewers too. But yes, that's also gross and, yes, sometimes the emergency overflow for our actual sewers go into natural water sources. It's shitty!
