Doesn't that give off hydrogen? My grandfather told me about putting lime in
a jug with a tiny hole and weighting it down in the water. it would take a few
minutes but it would give a very nice explosion that killed or injured fish
that could be picked up by holding seine across the river-in-the top of the
riffles after the deep hole you blew up. I always thought it was sad because it
killed all the small fish as well as the eating size ones.
