Pz3 Posted May 10, 2014 Posted May 10, 2014 I want to hear some of your stories on the darker side of fishing. Stories of shadow people, ghosts, aliens, UFOs etc. Surely some of us have seen some strange things. Like tonight. Doing a little canal fishing I use my head lamp to check the water for snakes and gators before I approach the shore. After looking around I kill the light. Immidiately across the bank a figure appears kneeling down by the water. Looking at it hard I figure it has to be a shadow casted from grass or something. Kick the head lamp back on and look around. No grass is any where near the shore line and the figure disapears. Click the light back off and the figure is there again. Not only is it there this time I notice the shadow is reflecting in the water as well. I continued to fish while watching and it never moved. There was no earthly way it was a shadow from grass or a tree. Spooky! Anyone else have some stories? 1 Quote

porkleaker Posted May 10, 2014 Posted May 10, 2014 Was just fishing off the dock and kept seeing these lights on the other side of the bay. They were going into the water and hovering around it..I went and got my binoculars to get a better view. Oh...Just people using those blinking/ lit up bobbers lol 1 Quote

SnazzySenko Posted May 11, 2014 Posted May 11, 2014 My first time fishing at night I went to a small lake by my house. We were there for about 10 minutes and we kept hearing weird noises. Sounded like "whoosh" lol..... Back n forth back n forth for about 20 seconds. We looked around for cars, didn't sound like one, airplanes, helicopters, nothing. About 5 minutes later I noticed a pale orange light up in the sky it wasn't the size of a light from an airplane. Then I heard the sound again and it got very small about the size of the light from a star and disappeared instantaneously. There wasn't a cloud in the sky. It didn't pop up again after that. I do believe in life outside of earth, make fun if you want, but that ***** was scary! 3 Quote
Super User Chris at Tech Posted May 11, 2014 Super User Posted May 11, 2014 While preparing for the excursion to Lake Baccarac this past March, the "bait chupacabra" (south-of-the-border relative to the "bait monkey") made be buy way too much tackle. Does that count? 3 1 Quote
Super User Bankbeater Posted May 11, 2014 Super User Posted May 11, 2014 Nothing paranormal, but there is an old family cemetery about 30 feet up the dam on one of the small lakes that I fish. Quote

Super User WIGuide Posted May 12, 2014 Super User Posted May 12, 2014 Bait monkey must have abducted me at one point. That's the only thing I can come up with as to how he can control me. Does that count? Quote

Super User WIGuide Posted May 12, 2014 Super User Posted May 12, 2014 As long as you weren't probed! Haha no no, had he tried any of that I would have smoked him up side the head with one of those heavy tungsten weights he made me buy! 1 Quote
RighteousFishing WI Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 I was fishing pool 10 on Mississippi river about a hour half away from me so I left early, we pulled up still was pretty dark out so we got out just messed around, all of sudden we seen these lights about a foot or two above the water, no way it was a boat, they blinked once poof 10feet down the river blinked again it was really bright then 10 ft back up the river. They were all over the river happened for about Ten mins, they were all over the place, me n my buddy have no idea what those were, we talked about the whole trip. bass fishing almost toke a backseat that trip. Am not saying anything just don't what it was. Also not a barge or spotlight. Quote
Christian M Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 Me and a good friend were fishing a lake deep in the Pine Barrens around 2am when we saw a light in the sky. It kept changing from red, to a blueish white. The strange part was that the light kept darting from one spot in the sky to another, closer then further, pausing for up to 10 minutes at a time. We watched it for about an hour, then it was gone. I have no clue what it was, but we never saw it again. 1 Quote

HeavyFisher Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 Immidiately across the bank a figure appears kneeling down by the water. Looking at it hard I figure it has to be a shadow casted from grass or something. Kick the head lamp back on and look around. No grass is any where near the shore line and the figure disapears. Click the light back off and the figure is there again. Not only is it there this time I notice the shadow is reflecting in the water as well. I continued to fish while watching and it never moved. There was no earthly way it was a shadow from grass or a tree. Spooky! Anyone else have some stories? Homeless people can be extremely stealthy when they want to. Quote

I don't remember seeing the cross in front, but I remember feeling weird, not to the point of saying anything to others in the boats, but it just felt odd! Quote
