    Thumbs down Scarey camping

    Yesterday, i went back to a camping/fishing spot, that i was last at over easter,,(see "bad camping ethics"), in hope of catching another fish or 2, to top off the last week of my holiday. little did i know that i would have to cut it short, this morning, in fear of my safety, and finaly ending up in the local plods office,( ). No, i wasn,t in trouble, just stumbled on a drug crop, while it was being watered. . Never has walking away from a situation, in the bush, quietly and quickly, been such a difficult thing to do, as every step sounded like thunder, in my ears.
    When you see one person, (grower or crop minder), you don,t know if they are alone or not, whether they are armed or not, or what their state of mind is like.
    Had the shakes by the time i got back on to the main road.
    Laurie.

    Think i,ll buy a gold lotto ticket, as he had his back to me, and i spotted him through foliage, about 15 mtrs away, got a good look at most of his pumping setup, , as that,s what alerted me. ( 12 v batteries littered everywhere), this was not a remote settlers household water supply pump, either.

    The camp site was great, just the wandering down the river, looking for a better fishing spot, because i could hear rapids and i know black bream feed above and below rapids, was the activity that proved to be a bit sus, but i think i did what any other person on this site would do.
    Surely, innocent fishing should be something anybody should be able to do, in safety?
    I hear that down south, they grow the stuff, in doors, so i guess you may not know what or who, you have for neihbours.
