Corrected entry: In the beginning they are interviewing ordinary people (locals) before going off into the woods for a weekend documentary. Two of the people they happen to interview are two local yokels fishing in a small, shallow river. The mistake is that the men are fishing in the river, and one of the men is using a large, open water lure called a 'Rattle Trap', a lure that's primarily used for largemouth bass in large, open waters, not shallow trout streams. You can't present a 3" lure to a 10" fish. It just doesn't work.

Correction: Character mistake, not a movie mistake. You never saw him catch fish with his lure either, and now we know why.
