Fishes With His Hands in Big Creek Indiana
Capt Whitcomb and railroad friends fished Big Creek last week when John Conway of Dilsboro swam dives to the bottom and surfaced with fish in each hand. He repeated the act nine times, totaling fourteen fish weighing about twenty one pounds. Conway, ages around 50, has long studied local waters and uses a hand and rock method to pull fish from crevices. His feats drew attention from spectators and would-be fishermen, who paid him to drag the creek bed in hopes of fish.
