Looks roughly dangerous!

#1 Post by simplywabs »

Been fishing over the weekend and I can't seem to figure out why the guys on the other side of the area where we are fishing are not moving even when the tide was rising and waves going up their feet. One freak wave is all it takes!

Why even worry about it? those gobshites obviously are'nt too worried theselves :roll: Unless of course you take into consideration that in the event of them falling in its the poor old coastguards and lifeboats that will have to put their lives at risk trying to save them just so a few days later themselves and their beer swelling buddy's can do it all again .

I agree to all the comments.

That's a crazy spot to be in waters that rough.

Great spot there Andy! looked at the original photo and all the series of shots. Indeed it looks like something jumped out of the water. Just can't seem to figure out what it was.

Definitely a very fit water dweller there but what fish species would jump out so high? Unless being hooked and fighting for his life of course, but I'm inclined to think more in direction of baby mammal? Pity there is only one photo...
