Some of you can joke all you want, I've seen this be a touchy subject for years but it's starting to get to be enough anymore.
I've had homeless harass me while fishing. I've had "thugs" eye me up while fishing. I had one guy I KNOW for a fact, size me up on spring creek in Harrisburg. I've had some hill jacks that we're getting a bit to friendly and won't go away etc etc etc. urban fishing used to be okay but today anymore people are getting too crazy anymore.
I was at Bonnybrook today and fished for awhile. Upon returning (walking over the bridge) I heard a bang and yelling. I get to to lot and a silver car with a woman in the drivers seat ,a man in the passenger and two teenage girls in the back. The guy appeared to be reaching back and whaling on the one girl. I yelled hey and dropped my rod. He looked at me and then they took off. I didn't get the plate number but it did have a logo (company car) on the side. I scrambled to get my gear in the car and go after them but I never caught up. I looked up the company on google and the man is the owner. I called the police and they are looking into it. It's getting crazy out there and I'm about tired of being unprepared. How many times does it take before I'm the one in a serious situation.
It's a figgin shame that a "I'm not gonna carry" person is considering turning into "rather be prepared" type of guy because the world is just so f'd up.
