I know the feeling is what I meant. Another TPFR member and I were diving once in the Caribbean and the water visibility was about 5 ft. I had the feeling there was danger around. That same afternoon, A guy got caught a 250 lb bull shark at the same exact location. Last year I had a run in with 2 beavers at Ft Belvoir. The water was pretty stained and they kept circling me and swimming up behind me within a few feet where I was wading. I got out of the water - they were getting too aggressive. I couldn't see them at all. At least with beaver, they warn you before taking a bite.
It's beavers that freak me out--Very rarely when I'm fishing in my kayak and have my legs hanging over the edge of it I have a small bout of shark paranoia. I take a couple of minutes to breathe and then I'm ok. =)

Date: Fri, Aug 23, 2013 8:37 AMWhat you guys are discussing here totally wigs me out. I've encountered bears and other predators on land, but something about being up close and personal with a shark totally gives me the willies.--Either PBS or Animal channel had something a few years ago about one or two sharks going up the Mississippi north of St. Louis, and attacking people here. Woo, wow...
