Default When things go bump in the night.

Ok, im sure there has been a few threads on these lines before but I was wondering what was the funniest thing you heard when on a night session.

What has really got you laughing to yourself in your sleeping bag.

On saturday night there was a guy on the opposite bank to me watching porn on what i presume was a laptop and on a very quiet and still night you could hear every thing, the guy was even commentating!

.......Me and the guys I was with were in tears lafing!

A crash, followed by my Ultralite collapsing around me!

The 'S' clip snapped and I thought a tree had fallen on my Bivvy!

A few years ago a good friend of mine went to the Cotswolds on an easter holiday with his family. He came back raving about some really nice gravel pits he'd fished where he'd managed to winkle out a nice mirror of about 17 and a half pounds. Surely enough, we came up with a cunning plan for a week down there later in the summer.

Off to the Cotswolds we headed in August, with the car loaded up to the roof. To cut a long story short, it rained constantly for a week and the carp fishing was dire (cracking tench sport though ). However, on one of the final nights, my friend finally got the run he was after. After a fine tussle he eventually got the fish in the net and sat back grinning with his prize catch safely on the mat.

Now I don't know if this particular fish just liked my friend, but it soon became apparent that the one fish he had managed to tempt all week was exactly the same one he had caught earlier in the year.

Me, laugh?....... Of course I didn't

Then again, my same friend did once have a bat fly into his head when we were night fishing once. Maybe he's just unlucky?

Mike.

I remember years ago fishing with my mates and my mate was about to cast out you know the one the big chuck .All lined up drops the rod tip over his shoulder then attempts to cast his fox chair into the lake . His hook had caught up on the chair ,Laugh we all p***ed ourselves . When i see him i always remind him .

was fishing on a local canal ( wont mension where ) and a circus filled the canals surrounding park land. but the circus had to cross the canal over a metal bridge specially for them.

during the niht hears this clanging looks up the canal and about 4-5 lads are taking the bridge down on the canal.

they walked past with barrow fulls of pieces of the bridge and one lad said ' moneys short and this is the next best thing to gain a **** up' me and my mate laughed.

pretty mad as they was at it all night , by morning the bridge was gone. lol
