You dont need a rod just your feet.
For thousands of years people living near estuaries have trudged across the mud-flats at low tide, taken off their shoes, waded into shallow water and used their bare feet to locate them. Tramping for flounders was a particularly popular pastime along estuaries of the rivers that run into Morecambe Bay and the bays round the coast of south-west Scotland – Luce, Wigtown and the Solway.

I remember swimming in the River Tigris when I was in Baghdad in the mid sixties (no trouble then). The fish kept nuzzling up to my big toes to see if they were edible. I got a fright seeing the teeth on them when my Arab pals mum served us up fish for dinner a few days later.
