BigBill - howdy. Hey - if you are going night fishing and plan on wearing night vision goggles or the like, you may scare the hay out of some bigfoot that happens along when it sees your green eyes. And honestly my friend, I doubt that 44 mag would serve any real purpose 'cause if they wants ya, they kin come an git ya and you wouldn't even know 'bout it until it was all over. I think they may be sensitive enough to know when someone is a bit nervous, as I would be shakin' all over and would no doubt be completely unable to use my gun in self defense.
Now, I have a theory about your bigfoot encounters and your bacon cheesburgers and believe I have mentioned this to you in previous posts. I think you may well have been visited by a bigfoot, many times. However, I think this may be one of the female variety that is tired of the drugery of pulling up roots and the like to feed her family, or just herself and may be checkin' out her options. I think it is really interested in your cheesburgers and if you plan on being out a night in that area you may well encounter one with romantic tendencies who may carry you away and set you upright in front of your cookstove. I don't want to think of what might happen after that but it would seem obvious that you wouldn't need a watch any longer as there should be a clok on your cookstove, if you get my meaning..........
In the same vein and with some of my humor here, and this does not in any way seek to discredit your sightings or what you have heard as I am still thinking about trekkin' on up there one of these days to visit with ya and to see what goes on up there, but my sister is still on the loose ya know and there's no tellin' who is givin' who the worst of it. In one of my posts to you a couple of years ago I warned the Bigfeets about the possibility of runnin' into her in the woods and cautioned them it might not be a pleasant experience. Of course, I can't speak for my sister......... and don't wanna go there (lolol).
Truly my friend, I would love to hear that you have had a non-frightening and/or more pleasant experience with a bigfoot sighting, or possibly even some sort of an interaction that doesn't leave you dead of fright. The night vision capability sounds interesting, as long as you don't collect a thrown rock twixt your eyes when you scare the bigfoot droppings out of one who doesn't expect to see glowing green eyes in the dark.
I don't think I would be all that frightened of seeing one, but given that statement, the sun has come up and I can now turn off all the outdoor lights and take the security bars off the windows (lolol).
I saw that Bigfoot show on tv and the results of the analysis of that film clip. I have been convinced for a long time that they exist and would love to have a non violent encounter, even a sighting. If they would like to stay for some of your burgers it could, as Bogart once said - be the start of a long relationship........................... Mikey.
