Hilarious guys . I know I'm affraid I'll have a Bill Dance moment myself, especially the areas I get into with my boat .

Fishmen I about fell out laughing, that was so darn funny. I'm sure you can laugh about it now adays but still get the willies thinking about it.

A deer in the house boat would of scared me to death, my German Shepard snuck in on me when I was in the shed yesterday piddling around and scared me.

While beached one evening, I had a Ring Tailed Cat jump on the bow, run over to food box and grab a whole bag of Oreo cookies. The chase ensued and we eventually caught him because he couldn't run very well carrying the bag with one hand.

While I would never condone chasing wild vicious animals, taking someones Oreos is stepping over the line! Here kitty, kitty, kitty........

I've had plenty of snakes drop in for a visit , hilarious when the person in front does not anticipate visitors .
Often , they do a fine Jesus imitation ....

I've had varios other critters make surprise appearances .
Chipmunks , possums , racoons , squirrels , etc ...
Even had a close ensounter with a very po'd groundhog , surprisingly ungratefull for landing on a boat cushion rather than a cold splash down .
Yes , they do climb trees , and are very good at it , usually .
After a moment of collecting its thought , it growled at me , then , took off for the closest shore , nearly knocking over the minnow bucket .

Seen the hornet situation before , along with wasps .
I have heard of yellowjackets and bumblebees , also .

Years ago a nieghbor had a deer jump into the boat , as he was towing it to the river .
It trashed his rig pretty badly , and , broke most of his tackle .
