In 2001, filmmaker Bradley Beesley brought the strange subculture of bare-handed catfishing to the screen in 'Okie Noodling'. Now he returns to his home state of Oklahoma to see how the sport has evolved over the last decade. Revisiting the colorful, original cast and meeting some new and eccentric fishermen en route to the largest noodling tournament in the nation- this film explores the legalization issues and commercialization of this once backwoods practice.
