Video: deaf ice fishermen

Here's a video of deaf ice fishermen somewhere in Europe, perhaps in Russia, Poland or Lithuania. Although not in ASL and there are some captioning but not in English. Still it's interesting to see how they communicate and fish. It was a bit of a contest on seeing who got the most fish. You can probably make some sense of some of their signing but that's about it. The winner appears to be a woman and if so then the title of this YouTube video shouldn't be "fishermen." Heh.

Very interesting show. I'm amazed how quickly they evolved from Soviet Union ERA.
