This was ALMOST the worst thing that happened while fishing;
I was fishing with a friend in the Owyhee river and it has steep banks.We had caught a few big brown trout that day,and after a fight with a menacing,7 pound sucker,I had to get my water from the truck.I started to ascend the steep bank and after being chased by a hornet,I slipped and fell,grabbing a ledge on the way down.It came with.The rock missed me and headed straight for my friend,I yelled down,"Get outta the way,get outta the-" he looked around,jumped up and got out of the rock's way.It bounced off one of the rods,hit another,disconnecting the top and bottom halves,before disappearing into the river.
Good post,your story sounds really frustrating!
My brother and I went hunting 1hr. away from home. When we got there he found out that he had forgotten the bolt to his rifle. Good thing he brought along his 357 pistol which was legal.
My worst luck came when i hooked a huge Pike. After a 30 minute fight, i finnaly brought the monster to the net. at that point, it broke the line and meandered into the depths.
opening morning in Wisconsin it was very foggy and I heard a deer coming it walked probably 40 yards in front of me. I could have got it but I couldn't see any thing!!
i went on a junior pheasant hunt and it just had to be that that day i got a terrible cold and i missed every bird that day and i should of easily hit 5 of them but the cold completely threw me off
my brother was hunting with his muzzleloader. He saw this nice buck come out and decided to take it. He pulled the trigger and CLICK!!!!
i was in new york fishing, hooked into a lot of king salmon, finally hooked into around a 40lb male, i was in position to catch it, had it facing upstream and near shore, someone came with a net and wouldn't get into waste deep water...his buddy finally talked him into it and the salmon took off way upstream turned down in the current and it was gone, earlier a guy practically dove in the river to help my buddy net his...
I bought some flys went to try them out, keep getting strikes but couldnt hook them. After a hour of getting pretty mad
I packed up. When I went to hook the fly on the eyelet the hook was half gone!
Getting my ear and almost my nipple and back snagged with a crank I almost lost. and didn't catch anything but a cold that day. we all have those days.
Well, I was fishin for striped bass out of Buzzards Bay. My buddy caught a blue fish and as I was netting it the dang fish jumped a bit my hand! Then, as my bud wasn't payong attention, he took a cast which then hooked me in the forehead. Not a very good day.
The most painful bad luck I had was when my buddy dug a treble hook into my back when we were fishing a river together but the worst overall luck has to be last hunting season with my brothers. First my little brother gets a clean bow shot on a doe but it ran into a 10 ft. corn field and we lost the blood and eventually the deer. Then during gun season I shoot a buck in the shoulder and it limped off into these thick woods. After 2 days of looking we had to give up after we lost sign. Then the same day as mine my older brother shot at an 8 point. We thought it was a clean miss at first but we ended up finding blood so we tracked it over two cut corn fields. Only to get to the middle of the second field and have the blood trail disappear.Three brothers, three lost deer. After that hunting season my whole household had a little deer depression until this season.
