I guess the scariest time on the water for me happened a few years ago fishing a tournament on Taylorsville. It was an all nighter and I was fishing by myself. About 11 that night it started storming. There was lightning everywhere. I was up in the Candy Branch area of the lake and was afraid to try to make the run to the ramp. I tied up to a stump close to the bank and just rode it out. I think it stormed most of the night. I could just imagine how the article in the paper was gonna read. The next morning after I made my way back to the ramp I found out that I was the only boat that weathered the storm. Every other boat in the tournament pulled out of the water and rode the storm out sitting in the parking lot. Ive only been scared on the water 3 times. Twice it involved lightning. The other time it involved my buddy falling out of my boat in March. Again, on Taylorsville and all the way up in the Candy Branch area.
