[Brian Needham]

F#$8 that....

exactly.........either shoot it, or bug out....but I aint hangin' around.

[tatertester]

Not quite the same , but, I'm fishing in a small cove, casting, and it's quiet as can be, SUDDENLY , it's like a 12 guage shotgun went off right next to the boat, bout had a heartattack!.....d**n! About 50lb beaver smacked his big tail on the water to chase me away from his den!....I mean to tell ya that was scary!

Thats awesome. I was in a canoe. Similare story, about 4am and litteraly right next to me a dolphin pops up and blows out with everything he had. No warning.

Scared me more then the 12ft alligator popping up.

[aavery2]

I once casted my bait into a possessed tree along the bank, I gave a tug at it and the tree shot it back at my face at the speed of light.   It was truly frightening.

Crawling along in the fog one morning I hear a weed eater engine and then heard a splash and then silent. Scared the crap out of us. About an hour later the fog lifted and we saw a guy on the bank looking for his remote control plane. We found the plane and I gave it back to the guy in pieces and said that was a couple hundred dollar mistake wasn't it? He said thanks but more like a $1,000. Planes shouldn't fly in fog.

Lies. Why make this up? Are you gunning for your own reality tv show ?

I hear something similair to wind chimes coming from to deep woods. There are no houses near me.

I'm fishing off a low bridge in a channel when I hear branches being moved at my car that's 100' away. I'm on the road with guard rails on both sides with no where to go. I'm in the dark at 4:am. I stood my ground and fished till dawn. There was a bear sighting not far away from me. Bears are very noisy when they think there alone. I spilled some bass attracting on the bumper of my car and inside the hatch. I spilled obstinate garlic scent. My car smelled like an Italian salad. I hear bear hoots at night there too. Bears hoot because they can't call 1-800-collect. It's there way to talk to other bears. It's three short hoots and one long hoot at the end. If you listen closely you will hear the direction of the first hoot then the answer hoot will come from a distant direction.

On another trip I heard tree knocking. Early in the morning. Again the first tree knock and another one from a different direction. Bigfoot? Never seen what it was.

 

At my camp in vt. My first experience was while cooking my bacon cheese burgers in the wilds of the green mountains. The screams we heard were so loud and intense like someone being skinned alive. This was the middle of October. In the third week in November it was back after I cooked my bacon cheeseburgers again. I contacted the BFRO BIGFOOT researchers and they sent up a local rep to investigate it. He found Bigfoot beds up on the mountain above my camp. I'm watched day and night while on my land. It follows us in and out of the woods when we hike. Next time I'll make some cheeseburgers for him too.

 

I'm not afraid. At home I have a 359#/400# black bear on my property. As long as it doesn't grab me.

 

Now when I was logging in the winter time I seen something move through the air like predator. From one stone wall across the dirt road to the stone wall on the other side.

This went on for a few days while I was logging there. I asked my buddy who is the forest ranger what's going on up there and why didn't the first logger there finish his job? He told me to walk up the hill there till I see the many piles of rocks there because they think there graves, very old Indian graves. I found them and they covered the hill side. I stayed away from them and finished my cut. I found out this area did have an Indian tribe.

Ha I think I found that same tree a few weeks ago. Trying to mauever my line in a nice pool but only had about a 3 ft hole. Sent that d**n 1/2 oz football jig back at me at lightning speed. Left a nice welt on my right shoulder.

I would have crazy high tv ratings!!!!

Had this happen before too. I wonder how fast they really are going. Looks and feels like 300fps easily.

Had one do that when I was out alone before sunrise setting up duck decoys... I jumped pretty bad

[bigbill]

I have a 48" long beaver do that to me all the time. He wants me to leave but I stay there. He ran by me onetime on the ground that's how I know how long he is.

[Avalonjohn44]

Scariest thing that ever happened to me was a huge hawk buzzing my head three or four times. I got the hint and got the heck out of there.

Given cabin fever is setting in, might be a good time to resurrect this thread.  Aaaand Go!

Hilarious. Not homeless beds or campers beds - no they found Bigfoot beds! I guess the hair samples found in the beds proved it. I mean my sheets are full of hair and I'm probably not as hairy as a Bigfoot would be if they were real, so surely they found hairs and toothbrushes and dentures and all kinds of DNA evidence. Can't wait to hear from the scientists that they submitted the samples to. ;)

Re-reading this made me long for some more of bigbill's stories.

One time I've seen a big piece of floating foam... thought it was a body at first.

I have been in the woods and on the water all my life and have plenty of outdoor stories. Not many scary stories though.

One night we were riding around back in the woods in this area known to locals as the flatwoods. There were trails all through it, but you had to make all the right turns or you wouldnt make it through to the other side. And it was thousands of acres. I took a wrong turn and went way down a road and it just ended. It was very hard to turn around because there were deep  ditches right off the road on either side. As we were going back I kept watching for a turn off I missed and never saw one. The road was long and straight and NO turn offs or anywhere to pull over even.

Suddenly, I saw headlights way back down that road, in the direction we had just come from. I was genuinely shocked because there was just no way another truck was back there. We hightailed it on out of there and never went back down that road again.

 Not far from there a friend was hunting one time and as they were heading in, there was a truck locked with the engine running, nobody in it. When they came back later, same thing. Someone else found a man with his head cut off out there. There was even a road through it the locals called " Ghost light "rd. We went out there as teens and seen that light moving way down that rd between the pines. Figured later maybe it was just cars going by where the other road went by.

We were camping once in the Ocala nat. forest. Very remote primitive campsite. Late at night I was awakened by a catlike grunt/ scream out somewhere in the woods. We figured maybe it was one of the very rare, or the last  Florida panther left in N. Central florida.

Not paranormal, but those things are like phantoms. There could be one right next to you and you wouldnt know it.

These stories are why I can not and will not fish in the dark alone. Unknown fact around here is that I have Aspergers. The dark can spook me.

One time I was fishing at this pond near a football field. All of a sudden, out of nowhere, a guy is a puffy suit comes gliding down from the heavens and lands no more than 50 feet from me. Talk about para-normal. 

[Log Catcher]

Many years ago I was fishing a lake I didn't fish very often. It was late September or October as it was getting dark fairly early. I decided to fish a while in a cove before I went in even though it was getting dark. Suddenly something let out a blood curdling scream in a heavily wooded area by where I was fishing. Didn't see or hear anything else for a while. About 30 minutes later it did it again. Never did know what it was. Someone told me later that skunks can make those screams. I will never know.

This is story about weather. Fishing one day and the lake was not super busy. After awhile I noticed everything getting really calm. Middle of the day and the wind quits blowing, the birds and insects were silent, and no boats or people around to be heard anywhere. Never seen it like that before. About 3 hours later right after I left the boat ramp to go home a big rain storm hit. Glad I wasn't on the water then.
