Death vs. Fishing (thunder/lightning)

I stop when the sparks fly off the end of the rod. If Gregory Peck (
capt Ahab) can do it with a harpoon, then why not with a fly rod.
I think this has been said here before but lighting can follow streams
and do damage several miles from where the strike occurs. Small
streams on rocky areas are supposedly where it has happend.
Lightning is a well researched area and how it happens and when is
pretty well known except when it doesn't behave.
If your ever on a stream or boat and the hair on you arm or head stands
straight out, put down your fly rod. Take off your lanyard, bend over,
put your head between you legs and kiss you a.........

I stop fishing when my flyrod buzzes when held overhead. Seriously,
has anyone else encountered that phenomenon? Pretty wild.
