Water witching trade endures four centuries in Minnesota
International Falls observer Al Fred Johnson has practiced water witching for 45 years using a willow divining rod to locate underground streams. He notes his father witching wells and cites varying methods from wires and pendulums to palm sensing while acknowledging scientific debate over how dowsing works. Johnson recently found an underground stream for a farmer, describing the vein as detectable 45 to 50 feet away.
