    Am i Rambo Jr lol? dynamite is hard to make because the active ingredient (nitroglycerin) is extremely unstable during mixing, and you need some hard to get chemicals.

    And i would never fish with dynamite , its wastfull and its stupid. if i saw someone fishing with dynamite i just might bury them in the woods...

    And that was a wasteful and stupid comment, best bet is leave and tell the law.
    I will admit that water explosions look cool though

    First, I was just joking about the whole letter bomb bit, but if you want, there are a thousand recipes for it online. Some may actually be stable enough that they won't kill you in the production process.

    I have seen a few ways, basically, being in a dug-out with a spear with 3,preferably bone, barbs, i tared mine on then bound them, and hitting the fish from above. Alternatively you get a sling like contraption that you use to fling the spear with somethign like 4 times the force, because of the extra length of your reach as you launch it forwards. Finally a small slingshot, with little spears, they are ok for small fish, but you would need larger spears or arrows for that.

    um beowulf i know you dont really care but you can make plastique from bleach (1 gallon) as long as it has 5.25% sodium hypochlorate and you have a stove a battery hydrometer a large pyrex container a triple beam balence and some potassium chloride (63 grams) (sold at health stores as a salt substitute)

    I would probably go for the slingshot with some...maybe 10cm darts, depending on the size of the fish, since 1lb is average 10cm should do, maybe being in a boat. I mean its up to you, and different styles and methods suit different people and the fish they use. Just try experimenting with different ways.
