When dowsing, we use rods cut from a coat hanger. Imagine two wire "7" shapes, held loosely by their stems. As you walk across the ground, the horizontal bars of the rods will come into alignment as you cross an underground stream and return to their original orientation as you move away again. Both the Missus and I can do it, as could our fathers. We used the method to find a source for our first well. We still use that well to water her gardens.
My father also used a fork of a willow branch. He said if you held it too tightly and crossed a large underground stream, the bark might be twisted off the wood, the pull was so strong.
