So I was fishing a little lake after dark this evening, isolated place set down in some woods so quite dark and eerie. Now don't get me wrong as with allot of fishermen I am very used to the various nocturnal noises & rustlings that go on after the sun sets so dont get scared easily
However there I was sat all quietly, not a breath of wind and eveything still & calm when what appeared to be a sizable tree collapsed without warning in the woods just a few yards directly behind me. As you can imagine trees collapsing are a pretty noisy business anyway but in the still of the night in the enclosed surroundings & right behind me it really was, well lets say, quite a "event" !!!
As it was happening I shone my little head torch into the canopy behind me and fully expected to see a Tyrannosaurus Rex appear Jurrasic park style out of the trees!!! ...I think its fair to say its not something I would like to go through again :scared:
Anyone got any bump in the night stories they want to share ?
