Anybody ever go "car fishing" as a kid?

At least that's what we called it.
You tie fishing line to a shoe and put it across the road, when a car drives by you yank it and try to bang it into the side of the car.
I had one friend in middle school and we would do this at his house. A few people stopped and got out but we always ran away, what a shitty thing to do looking back on it. We're lucky we never got the shite beat out of us

Nah, we used to sell fake crack when we were kids.

I was into prank phone calls back then. The good old days. I can still put a treble hook in a mouth when I get a wrong number. It's an incredibly immature thing for a 66-yrar-old man to do, but so fricking what?
Car fishing? Sound like a rural Southern thing, never heard of it.

Why not just throw the shoe at the car?

Texting and driving should've been a thing when you were a kid playing in the road

We just left homemade explosives on friends' front porches.

So there's an official name for this?
My babysitter taught me how to do this when I was a kid. Of course, I was too dumb not to do it in front of my own house. Almost resulted in a number of beatdowns.

No, but when I was a kid the 210 loop in Lake Charles was being built right across the street from me. My friends and I would climb up on the huge piles of dirt and throw clumps of dirt at the passing cars. A couple of people tried to chase us but that was our playground they had no chance of catching us.

Because then they see where you are and know what happened

I never did this as a kid, but can remember in high school some of the people I knew would put clear tape between two signs and when you drove through it there was a loud pop. Same concept, I'd imagine.

When I was in middle school we would go in public places with BC headache powder and act like it was coke. Would pretend to snort it and people would freak out

No, but we did what we called The Purse Trick. We tied fishing line to a purse, laid it in the road, waited for a car to stop & pick it up and then pulled the purse when they got out & reached for it. We did it really late on Friday or Saturday night, so most of them would be drunk. We never even had to run because the people in the cars would jump back in and take off. We just stayed behind a hedge. The other kids at school used to talk about that corner being haunted.

We used to get an old purse and fill it with dog shite, put some tissues over it and place an old wallet on top. We would take a 5 dollar bill and cut the corner off of it and tape it to the wallet to make it look legit.
We would place the purse in plain view on a busy intersection and hide nearby and watch what would happen. I can't imagine the emotions finders would experience from thinking they hit the jackpot to getting a car full of shite when they emptied the purse in their car.
We were real dicks but at least we weren't robbing and vandalizing.
Good times.

I don't understand. How this works.

A few times as bored teenagers we would set up a suitcase on the side of the road and hide in the woods with string attached.
Pretty uneventful, but we found it funny when the drunk guy would climb out of the car and realize that it was a joke.

1. Tie strong fishing line to shoe
2. Put shoe across the street, wait on other side with string
3. As car drives by, yank hard, sending shoe into side of car

We used to go out at night and wait for a car to approach. One person in the group would start riding a bike in the direction of the car. The rest of us would run out of the woods, pretend to knock the kid off the bike, act like we were hitting/kicking him and then run back in the woods before the car got there. Very few people would stop to ask if the kid was okay.
For three days in a row, we built a makeshift barricade of trees in the street. When the school bus from the other school drove by, the plan was that the bus would stop and we'd hit it with a barrage of pine cones. The plan worked great on Day One. Day Two, the bus slowed down and carefully drove over the barricade. Day Three, the bus driver gunned the bus before he came around the curve and blasted the barricade.

Never heard of that. When I was a kid we did the suitcase. Apparently cats don't like enclosed things. We caught a cat and put it in a suitcase and put it on the side of the road like it fell off a vehicle. We hid in the bushes and didn't have to wait long as about that time a car full of people (I won't say color) stopped and one got out, picked up the suitcase, and got back in the car and took off. The car didn't get the length of a city block before it started swerving and rocking. I know we saw the cat do at least two laps. I've never seen people get out of a car so fast.
