This bald eagle has figured out how to game the system. Instead of expending all the energy necessary to hunt for himself, he just snatches a fish that’s already been snared by a fisherman. You go, bald eagle.

On the list of things that are awesome in the video: the sound of the reel rapidly unspooling as the bird makes off with the fish and Norman Dreger (aka, the least fortunate fisherman) cursing as he realizes what’s happening. “Fuuuuuu-ahhhh-oh crap! Crap!” indeed.
