Riverside surprise
I went night fishing with a mate who was a little more serious than me. I was expecting to have a few beers & doobs and a bit of a chat. He said we should fish apart. It made sense I suppose less chance of tangles.
So there I am sat by a river in the nearly dark looking at a tiny glow in the dark float drinking my tinnies and smoking my doobs, my mate wasn't even in shouting distance as he had gone off looking for the perfect swim.
Then I began to hear noises behind me, it was a large animal crashing about and snorting. My mind conjured up wild boar, escaped bears & big cats,this was Keynsham just out side of Bristol, UK I was being a paranoid stoned bastard. I turned around the reeds behind my seat were moving, the sound was getting louder I was backing up fumbling in my pocket for my bike light I found it and with shaking hands managed to turn it on to illuminate an extremely startled badger. Fuck me they are big, it looked at me for a little while sniffed the air (possibly smelling the various baits I'd got with me) then shuffled off.
I didn't do much more fishing that night
