Greetings
Thought I'd share this one in the hope that there are other numpties out there who will by sharing their endeavors make me feel a little less 'idiot like'
As it't the close season I thought it time to have another go of 'carp' fishing in that I got out the pod, multiple rods, Bivvie etc etc in order to have a session. Not my normal, lunch box, one rod and a net set up but you have to try new things.
I set up on a little wooden platform, you know the sort and soon had wet lines and a cuppa on the go bliss. a couple of hrs later for some reason or other I stood up, probably just in order to stretch out the legs, stood, admired the view... turned to look across the valley at the hills, and then took a step back straight off the platform straight into the lake.
No idea why I took that step back, just did ended up completely under, noting a couple of walkers and bivvies on the bank opposite I grabbed a rod, and pretended to have one on, before in a overly loud voice "drat it got off". Must have been at least a 40.
As styling it out goes I think I got away with it, as far as the session went stood it about another 40 - 50 mins but as darkness fell and the temperature dropped Hypothermia sent me skuttling for the car...
Over to you
