The Funniest thing I ever saw whilst fishing

[JT2769]

Aye-up lads,

Was telling my cousin the other day about the time I was fishing at Turners pool and saw something really funny. it gave me an idea to see what other funny stories are out there.

I turned up at Turners with another pal "Paddy" it was quiet and tranquil, just as we was wetting a line two other fellas turned up across the far side, by the noise they were making I could clearly hear thier accent, they were brummies, they set up approx 10m away from each other and were chatting (shouting to each other) continuously,by this time i was getting really pi553d off with it.

When all of a sudden i heard the distinctive noise of a buzzer on the far side, I saw that one of the chaps was away from his peg and was with his other friend, he started running towards his rods, he fell over his chair and fell flat on his face, he scrammbled to his feet, but by this time his rod had gone in the water and was being dragged off, he was chocker, it was so funny (not for the unlucky fish though might i add) eventually he did get his rod back and the fish was unharmed.

was so funny though just deserts i thought....

Funniest thing I ever saw was what I did

In bivvy last summer at silly o'clock. Rods were out, but slightly to the side and not simply right in front of the bivvy, had been raining and was pitched on grass.

.............. The alram rattled off and half asleep I ran out, slipped onto my asre, face and stomach and slid right past my rods and into the margins (a good 10 metres from where I slipped).

My dad landed the fish, p1ssing himself laughing

Fishing Sale water park years ago with a good mate, I had a run and landed a small mirror just as the bank ranger turned up for the day ticket money.

His mate was out on the lake in a small speed boat that they used to patrol the lake in, he radioed to him and he buzzed over to have a look.

The fish was returned, then I noticed that the guy on the boat was drifting to wards my pall.

The inevitable happened and he got caught up on one off his lines

After a bit off foraging he managed to free my palls line

Thanks all round were said and then captain Pugwash put full throttle down and sped of catching my palls other 2 lines in the process

His reels went into melt down mode, all he could do was stand there with 2 rods in his hands

He shouted to me to help but all I could do was wipe the tears out off my eyes from laughter

His lines came free so I gave him a hand to wind in and I am not joking you boys in came the biggest birds nest you have ever seen, about a 5 foot ball

Trying my best not to laugh, he had the biggest temper tantrum known to man.

He packed all his gear up and said "I'm off" and of he went to the car-park

10 Min's later he wondered back sat down just looking at the lake.

"thought you were going home" I said.

"I was, but your driving"

At this point I could not hold it in any more and just PMSL

At least we can look back at it now and have a good laugh.

Cheers Slim

I was doing a nite on Bogart hole clough many years back, and the local doggers from heaton park had been moved on by the bill, and decided to set up shop on the clough.
Well on night (moonlit) i saw the sad gits crowding round this talbot sunbeam (an old car to you younger gen) and was again distracted by a commotion going on next to the car, So off i shot to see whats going on.
Well it turned out it was 2 plain clothed C I D coppers doing a sting on the doggers, and the funny part was .1 sad git was spanking away, police jumped outta the bush`s,in panic he trapped his rampton in his zip
claret everywhere, and the female C i d officer taking photo`s as evidence
of indecent exposure,whilst he was wishing for sudden death.

Back in the 70's myself and an unamed mate were carping a local water in an area with a steepish bank.
Anyway it was sun loungers back then not bed chairs and on the steepish bank we had the back legs collapsed to level them out.

Middle of the night my mates front leg folded back and it was a burial at sea.

Slid down the chair then slid down the bank about 4 ft and awoke to find the lake margins around his waist.

Laugh i nearly joined him in the water.

I was fishing a small reed fringed lake last summer with platforms about a foot above the water and the reeds. There was a man and his wife fishing on the opposite bank in pegs next to each other. The gentleman was only a very slight man where as his wife was a well nourished individual and considerably large than him.
I was dozing in the mid day sun having a very relaxing day when I became aware of muffled cries for help. I looked around but could not for the life of me work out where it was coming from. Till I spotted a pair of legs waving in the air next to the platform where the large lady had been sat. At this point her husband ran over to her peg and tried to extract her from the reeds but as the platform was so much lower she pulled him in as well. Eventually they both managed to extract them selves.
