No reference to a fish cannon at your link. ???

But it may be similar to a "herring charge". When my granddad served
on destroyer escorts in the British Navy, WWI, detecting a German U
boat always resulted in fresh fish for dinner. In his personal log
from the war, he describes how the mess hands would run out on deck
with long handled nets during depth charge runs and scoop up huge
quantities of stunned fish.

Sometimes you hear about rednecks supposedly doing some catfishin'
with dynamite. Probably 99% urban legend, but the results would be
similar to Grandpa's depth charges- if on a smaller scale.

Chuck, you have a big boat, but you can't afford new glasses? Look at the
picture, directly above the guy in the yellow helmet. It's a fish cannon.

I am not in the mood to explain simple things tonight. Get with the program,
please.

I have no idea what a fish cannon is unless you are talking down
riggers.

Well, I've never heard of a "fish cannon". It looks like the type of
artillery that uses a rocket powered shell of some sort, but why they
would call it a fish cannon I have no idea.

Got a reference to fish cannon?

It is a 25mm cannon. Never heard of a fish cannon. Potato gun, but not
fish cannon.

It is a 25mm cannon. Never heard of a fish cannon. Potato gun, but not
fish cannon.

I was thinking about 105mm, or maybe even 5 inch, not knowing anything
about how the things are armed.

The only reference I could find on "fish cannon" was on a gaming group
for Halo 2.

Which means this is probably Doug's very sad attempt at some sort of
"humor".

He's trying to entice us into some sort of political argument wherein 'fish
cannon' play a major role.

After hours of research, I came up with this:
