Fishing with a Fire Extinguisher? We Check Out Powerlining

This time of year at Montrose Harbor, you’ll see people lining the lakefront with fire extinguishers - but they’re not putting out flames, they’re fishing. Powerlining is a unique fishing style with local roots. Producer Evan Garcia recently hit the harbor to catch this story.

I don't think I'd go as far as to say it isn't real fishing. It's different and more focused on stocking the fridge rather than the fun or sport of it, though I'm sure it's enjoyable still. It's interesting seeing all the fishing styles from around the world.
