Great tale... reminds me of making 'fishing bombs' with Dad's gunpowder. But I was a wee bit more subtle so he wouldn't notice the powder missing... A pill bottle, some wax, and a waterproof fuse (remember when you could just buy those at the hobby store and didn't have to make your own ?).
Go down to the lake, light the fuse, throw it in. Boom ! Depth Charge ! Battle Stations ! AChtung !.... and a few stunned catfish would surface, flop around for a bit, then swim away slowly.
