Super User Montanaro Posted August 11, 2013 Super User Posted August 11, 2013 The bullshark one scares the crap out of me. I'd never swim in the backwaters of tidal areas for that reason. 1 Quote

Super User Sam Posted August 12, 2013 Super User Posted August 12, 2013 The bullshark one scares the crap out of me. I'd never swim in the backwaters of tidal areas for that reason. Montanaro, that is why I don't swim in water where I can't see them but the can see me. Learned that a long time ago growing up in southern Louisiana. Quote
The Rooster Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 I only live in KY, where there's really liable to be nothing of much danger in the water, but one day I had the privilege of seeing a snapping turtle with a head the size of my fist and a shell about 18" across, swim up to a smaller turtle and grab onto it (for what purpose, who knows) in waters very near to where others were swimming. This thing was huge. I didn't know they got so large. It looked like a big garbage can lid in the water. I decided I value my toes too much to want to wade/swim in local lake waters anymore after seeing that. If I do, it's off of my boat in deep waters now, where finding a surprise turtle out in open water isn't very likely. I still can't believe people noodle fish for these things. That was, bar none, thee ugliest thing I've ever seen in the wild. 2 Quote

fadetoblack21 Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 Watched a video a few months back of a kayak fisherman reeling in what seemed like a large tuna. . . . . . . until a shark came up and took the fish. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=puNhvXutVjQ Walk on water. . . hell I would have been sprinting across it if that were me. . . .
