Very very true those guys see some very stupid actions.

I was fishing off sandbanks in poole and witnessed 3 teenagers in a canoe with fishing rods, they looked very shifty so I thought i would keep an eye on them.

I was amased as I watched them paddle up to a large metal bouy thats used for the shipping lane. They continued to climb onto this bouy and start to fish, they must of got bored after around 10 mins and 1 of them dived off.

As he tried to climb back on he realised that the ladder was to high up so thought it was a good idea to climb back on the canoe, BAD Move as he did water was flooded into the canoe and swiftly sunk.

So you had 2 guys on the bouy with fishing rods and 1 in the water slowly drowning.

Mixed emotions really, but i didnt want to see that moron drown.

Around 20 mins after the start of the event the trusty RNLI arrived and saved them. but i bet they had a few choice words for them.

"Nice shop btw" Cheers m8
