Default As this ever happened to you?

Check this out, i have had a few swallow's come close to taking my fly, and have caught a few bats whilst sea trout fishing.
But nothing like this!
Cheers
Richard

Years ago, when there was a lot of perch on Lake of Menteith, I would kill the odd one i had caught, when fly fishing for trout, and throw it out back of boat, just to watch ospreys stoop and take perch!
They often took the fish within 30 yds of boat, was an awesome sight!
