Exception Handling Within Methods

I'm currently looking over exception handling within Java and have what whats probably a very simple question to answer!

If within a method I have a try and catch block to handle all exceptions that the specific method may throw, do I then also need to specify the exceptions that the method will throw within its signature? (As I have already handled them).

After a bit more reading I think i've found my answer.

You only declare a method throws an exception if you wish to deal with it further up the method call stack. This raises another question though. If I did handle the exceptions that my method could throw within the method itself as well as declaring the method to throw the exceptions within its signature. What would happen?
