The only thing that scares me when night fishing is really bizarre noises.

 

Me and my older brother were out night fishing a stretch of the ribble which is situated behind preston crematorium (so you can guess the atmosphere there regardless of time or light conditions). Great spot for big barbel by the way. It was around 3.15am and we were both sat under our brolleys on the edge of the woods at the bottom of the huge hill leading down to the secluded swims. We were simply enjoying the cool breeze with two rods each waving in the breeze with only our isotopes to watch. We had been quiet for a while as we had been hearing some strange rustlings so were keeping an ear out as we were near a rough neighbourhood. Bank sticks were at the ready.

 

All of a sudden all hell breaks loose in the woods behind us and it sounds like something is crashing through the woods straight towards us. Then sounds as though something (like a log or a BODY!!!) is rolling down the hill. Needless to say we both froze and looked at each other. After around 20 seconds the sounds stopped as quickly as they began. We still never to this day found out what it was but the rest of the night was spent with head torches on and and radio up.

 

The other thing was we moved around the bank in the morning only to find there was a huge engraving on a tree behind us which said R.I.P (insert name). With dates and things on it. This WAS NOT there the day before. We havent been back for quite a while now.

Discovering I have forgot my reels. Forgetting my flask. Hearing idiots and woosies partying and scaring themselves over night noises and nothing and upsetting the fishing, I know I will loose my temper one night.
