frogtog Posted June 12, 2009 Posted June 12, 2009 I was fishing the Alligator river in eastern NC today. I was just going along trying to catch a bass when I came across this. It kind of gave me the spooks so I took a picture of it and left. :-? There was a pile of rock around it that looked like a grave. :-/ I will do a little history checking and see what I can find out.

DINK WHISPERER Posted June 12, 2009 Posted June 12, 2009 I was about to ask just what i was suppose to be looking at with in the first pic you posted! That is pretty spooky indeed man! Quote
aarogb Posted June 12, 2009 Posted June 12, 2009 WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thats creepy right there!!!!!!!!!!!!! It must be an old slave grave or something. Quote
Big Tom Posted June 12, 2009 Posted June 12, 2009 Wow thats crazy stuff. Let us know what you are able to find out. Quote
Super User Sam Posted June 12, 2009 Super User Posted June 12, 2009 Slave graves run north and south without any headstones. Usually covered by periwinkle. Either someone just placed it there or high water is covering the grave. Could have been an old plantation cemetery. County should know about it. Did it hold any bass????? Quote
Sfritr Posted June 12, 2009 Posted June 12, 2009 Maybe its a grave from a sunken boat Possibly the site of a fish kill A place to deadstick a bait? Someone killed em there? I know I know Horrible stuff........... Quote
Super User senile1 Posted June 12, 2009 Super User Posted June 12, 2009 It appears to be a flooded grave, based on the house right on the edge of the water in the distance, the flooded walkway behind it, and poles sticking up out of the water. Interesting picture. Quote
SDoolittle Posted June 12, 2009 Posted June 12, 2009 I woulda pitched a jig to it! That's exactly what I was thinking! Quote
Koop Posted June 13, 2009 Posted June 13, 2009 Probably someones lucky spot, they put the grave there to keep everyone else away Quote
Branuss04 Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 That's not the same place that "Bassdocktor" found this would it :-/ Quote
Low_Budget_Hooker Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 That's where some poor soul kicked his Steez overboard :-[ Quote
skeetermike Posted June 15, 2009 Posted June 15, 2009 I've fished over flooded house places down in Southern Ark. Caught 4 in the driveway and 2 outa the front yard. We also caught one off the old well house too. However, this takes the cake! probably not a slave grave though. Way too elaberate for that. I would have pitched that jig up against it and if that didn't work maybe throw a spook ! He He He! Quote
Super User burleytog Posted June 15, 2009 Super User Posted June 15, 2009 Jimmy, we gotta do a day of exploring the next time I'm out there. I'm almost tempted to make the drive just to fish. Quote
fishinfewl Posted June 15, 2009 Posted June 15, 2009 I wouldn't fish that area at night that's for sure. SPOOKY!! Quote
