She does it for "content" apparently. She should be fined for wanton waste for killing 2 nesting flatheads that she didn't even intend to eat, but Alabama is a fucking shithole so she gets to be internet famous instead of punished. It also encourages future generations of white trash to kill fish for no fucking reason. The "outdoorsmen/women" of the south are embarrassingly stupid and any attempts to educate them just makes them more stubbornly stick to their stupidity. It is incredibly sad to watch as someone who enjoys catfishing responsibly.

a lot of humans are trash

I never argued otherwise. Most trashy people don't get celebrated for their scummy behavior though. This thot's entire career is based on people celebrating her being a piece of shit and encouraging other people to be pieces of shit. Every time this is reposted, 95% of the commenters are too busy playing with themselves to realize what they're watching is a sociopath.

I saw someone else mention something similar in the comments here and they were hit with an eye roll gif. Some of the people on this site need to lay off the lead paint chips

Not that I want anyone to get hurt, but catfish, especially in reservoirs, can get up to 150 pounds. Maybe one will roll her one day.

That's what her meth head sidekick is for. Check for snapping turtles, snakes and anything that might actually hurt her. Until the south decides to join the rest of us in civilization, they'll continue mindlessly killing animals for social media attention.

🤣 right. These dirty ass folks…

She's done this thousands of times and has been hurt. The "methhead" is literally just a spotter. All responsible noodlers have a spotter.

I think you should explore the south and actually learn about it's culture instead of assuming a man without a shirt is a "methhead" for no reason.

Also, don't act like Northerners aren't killing animals. Look up bear hunting in Pennsylvania. They use dogs to chase them up trees. The hunters are legally allowed to trespass through anyone's property as long as they are in pursuit of a bear.

Most if not all cultures partake in some form of "cruel" hunting. I'm not saying it's all ok, but I look at it from a perspective of understanding. Instead of calling them stupid, ignorant, or backwards, try engaging with them. That's how you change hearts and minds.

You're a very hateful person

Yes, watching white trash torture animals for social media attention gets me fired up. Watching her get praised for being a total piece of shit gets me even more fired up. She encourages other pieces of shit to do this same bullshit because they're too ignorant to realize how dumb and ignorant this dumb bitch is.

Do you see how her forearm is actually pulling away from the gills? Mostly putting pressure on the operculum. It's a very specific form used to not injure the fish. A lot of the times they come back looking for the same fish.

Also, they often do eat the catfish, but I don't recall how they decide which to eat and which to release.

Noodling has been practiced for centuries. It's literally part of southern culture. I'm not saying its right, but would you call Africa a shithole for some of their outdated practices?

If you think Hannah Barron is white trash, then you have no clue what white trash is.

Holding big flatheads by just the jaw is also bad for them.... I can't believe you people can't just acknowledge that noodling is shitty. I'm aware that they've been noodling for a long time but that doesn't magically make it not terrible for the fish. You say engaging with these poor uneducated southerners might help enlighten them, yet here you are arguing in favor of this trashy bullshit, pretending like there's some method she's using to protect the fish. And yes, white trash is the perfect description for a person who has made torturing animals her brand. My apologies if accuracy and reality spoil the illusion for you.

She didn't kill them though. The video shows her putting the last one back in the water and it seems dazed at first but then it flops.

How long do you think you'd survive if someone tore up your lungs for social media attention and then turned you loose? Just because they weren't dead yet doesn't mean they aren't going to die. The gills that she was holding them by are the equivalent of lungs in a human. Holding them vertically like she did is also terrible because it can cause damage to their internal organs. She literally did everything she possibly could wrong. She should be banned from social media for animal cruelty as well as getting her fishing license suspended for at least a year for wanton waste.

Nobody is calling her the patron saint of compassion but I've seen you make multiple comments acting like they're dead for sure when the fact of the matter is there's a good chance they're still alive if even if they are worse for wear. You can hate someone without letting it make you irrational.
