They say that because of coronavirus, we should avoid crowds. I know just the place.

Fred, I had several tense moments last summer. On one occasion, a shark took a fish off my stringer while I was wading and didn’t realize it until I lifted my stringer into the boat and saw a trout had been bitten in half. Another time, I was winding in a trout and saw the big swirl and realized a shark was after my trout. I turned and ran toward the beach, rod over my shoulder and winding as I ran. When I got into water just under knee deep, I turned to see if we’d escaped. The 4-5’ shark followed me, and his back was out of water as he ate my trout, turned and floundered his way back to deep water. After that I got into my boat and moved a mile or so to new water. There, I hooked a lady fish and was fighting it, when a BIG shark took my fish and spooled my reel. I couldn’t turn it or slow it down. I got back into the boat and decided to fish from there. On another lady fish, I saw the shark after my fish. I jerked the fish up and toward the boat. The shark was so frantically chasing my lady fish, as I lifted the fish into the boat, the shark hit the side of my boat with a THUD as it made another run at my fish. A week later, I was wading about thigh deep and had eight trout on my stringer. I was 200 yards from my boat and wading that way take a break. As I was wading and casting, I heard a commotion behind me. I turned to see water churning around my stringer. Knowing my trout were under attack, I just started beating the water with my rod and my landing net. That shark only got one of trout. Those encounters occurred toward the end of the summer when water temperature was VERY warm. That’s why I prefer to wade in the spring before it gets so hot…but I still wade throughout the summer…just with a little more peace of mind from now to June.

Thank you for that story! I figured you had a few close encounters. If you are anywhere close to me, I’ve lost a lot of my youthful nerves of not caring. I walk the swamp banks like I used to on small creeks. Never much worried about snakes when I was little but do now.
Friends and I used to frequently stop the boat headed back to the landing and We’d jump out and cool off swimming a bit. After the tagging of Mary Lee (big great white) and seeing her “ping” in areas we swam I quit. I give our off shore divers a lot of credit. I was in Keesler for a year and went with a couple of guides, fabulous fishery in that area.
