    Maybe they were mowing over on the course, and a rock got knocked a good ways?

    I have a theory of what it was....

    It could have been "Big Brother" attempting a long distance tracking device implant which went terribly wrong.!!

    Maybe a bird passing a kidney stone?

    I was on Taylorsville last Friday about 9:00 am when I heard a shot from
    across the lake and immediately heard the bullet go by me.
    That was scary.

    I feel like a sitting duck when I hear a shot while fishing. I immediately listen for the bullet hitting or ricocheting off the water to determine whether I need to get the he** outta there.

    Best method is to wait till a bullet passes thru you and hits the boat, then standing still, line up the entry hole with the hole in the boat to determine where the bullet came from.

    Naaaaaaaa.....second thought, I like your idea better. No need to get a hole in the boat. :-)

    I hear ya....had the same thing happen to me at T-ville a couple years back, while fishing over the hump between Settlers Trace and the dam.

    If it was ice, you would have probably seen it floating

    I should have read the whole thread, I see someone else had the same idea I purposed.

    Anyway, not all Ice will float. If the ice is heavier than water, it will not float. There are four states of matter...

    Solid (basically ice)
    liquid
    gas
    plasma

    So, if the matter that fell was solid, it could have been a frozen liquid that is heavier than water, or in other words more dense, causing it to sink.

    Sorry... I gotta quit watching all that science channel stuff... LOL

    tight lines friend,

    Did it look like this?
