Craziness!! I had a similar experience, kind of, a few years back. Only I
was the shooter, in a sense.... lol
I was bank fishing this public state owned pond, about 30 acres and it was
long and narrow, probably about 7 or 800 feet across, and here comes this
model boat club, and they set up camp across the pond from me. I was like,
"cool, this ought to be neat to watch". I kept on fishing. Next thing I
know, these things are whizzing around the whole damn lake at about 40 or 50
miles an hour, and they kept getting closer and closer to me fishing. One
came about 20 feet away from me and about hit my line, and I heard them all
chuckle and laugh over there. I yelled, "HEY, I'm fishing over here!".
They did that same thing, each time getting closer and closer. I picked up
a rock, and chucked it out probably 30 feet behind the next boat, as a
warning shot. It didn't seem to have an effect on them. I threw up my
hands like, what the hell guys?! Well, the next little boat came around, I
picked up a rock, threw it, not thinking I would actually hit one of their
little water missiles, and BANG!!! That thing spun twice, flipped and sank!
I paused in shock for a second, and murmured to myself, "Holy SH**". I
looked over and I seen about 15 of those guys dropping remotes and running
for the end of the lake. There was only 1 path to the lake and about a 100
yards thru the woods to the parking lot. The race was on!! I had about
that 100 yards on them by the time I got to the truck, threw my stuff in,
started it up and gave them a gravel shower, unintentionally. Man, I about
died that day! lol

Every time I take my boy into the hobby shop, I see those little boats and
start laughing... Those things are about $2000.00 a piece too. That story
somehow reminded me of this story, so I thought I'd share...

I guess this guy owns all the water he fishes.
