Mitch f Posted July 13, 2010 Posted July 13, 2010 I was watching that show called River Monsters tonight on Animal Planet. I'm not joking but there was a guy who was wading in the Amazon and while releaving himself had a small Snake like fish swim up his urine stream and crawled up inside his penis. Apparently this has happened several times in this region. I think I'll stick to wading in the Missouri trout streams. "Honor is a man's gift to himself" Rob Roy McGregor

There's a fine line between fishing and sitting there looking stupid.
eric1978 Posted July 13, 2010 Posted July 13, 2010 Yeah, I've heard about that for years, and I always thought it was urban...er, uh...jungle legend. Maybe, maybe not. Either way, there's plenty of other stuff swimming in the Amazon to keep me out of it, and if I'm ever lucky enough to get down there to catch some Peacocks, I'll be packing a case of Trojans. That River Monsters is a pretty cool show, but Jeremy Wade is a weirdo.

Or you could always step out and pee on a tree. Missouri streams have their dangers too as far as parasites. Leeches are my worst annoyance and are becoming quite common on the Spring River in Ark. E Coli from cattle and septic tanks, Salmonella, Girardia and others can get you while swimming or fishing with an open cut.

gotmuddy Posted July 13, 2010 Posted July 13, 2010 I like the show but it ticks me off when he leaves his bait clicker on when reeling in a fish. everything in this post is purely opinion and is said to annoy you.
Smalliebigs Posted July 13, 2010 Posted July 13, 2010 Eric, I must agree the show is cool, but Jeremy is playing for the other team if you know what I mean. I wouldn't go camping with him in the Amazon, you would have to pull the tea bag from your chin in the morning.
eric1978 Posted July 13, 2010 Posted July 13, 2010 Wouldn't that be like putting an adult rubber glove on a kids hand if you were not excited about something? I'd bring along some Viagra and smut, too. Missouri streams have their dangers too as far as parasites. Leeches are my worst annoyance and are becoming quite common on the Spring River in Ark.

But none of them look like the things in Tremors and swim up your ding dong. Vomiting and diarrhea sounds like a pretty good time considering the alternative. And leeches are nasty, sure. I had one on me last summer at the Bourbeuse. Just picked him off. I don't think they're dangerous, just gross.

stlfisher Posted July 13, 2010 Posted July 13, 2010 I like the show. I also agree that Jeremy Wade is a little bit of a different breed...not as strange as Timohty Treadwell or the wolfman guy...but he is certaintly unique.

I guess you're about to be called a "JERK" for posting that line about the smut and Viagra. Some people don't like wise cracks like that around here. Normally I would wear waders when wading just for the purpose of all the stuff in the streams. But, it's just too dang hot out for them now. I'll take my chances. And, I don't pee in streams. Mmmmmmmm... leeches. Bass, trout, walleyes and other fish love them. Put em on a hook and hang on! There's a fine line between fishing and sitting there looking stupid.
