I would like to add to shoulda .... post. When you see dude with a handgun or riffle do not walk away. He can shoot you from the back anytime, you'll never know what's in his mind bro. Look for any objects you can use, rocks, branches, your fishing rod, lures. 1st you have to distract him, keep calm, be patient, talk to him, ask him what he is trying to catch, tell stories, give him tips If you can on how to catch easily and where the honey holes are, tell him that you want to show some pictures on your cellphone If you have one and grab his Riffle or handgun when you're close enough. Dudes like this will piss in their pants when they lose their guns and aim his gun on him, tie him up with your fishing line or zip tie, then call the cops.
I remember 1 dude pulled a knife out on me years back. I have nothing to fight that dude back, I look around for rocks or anything but theres none. He tried to stabbed me few times, I moved back and pretend that I grab a big rock on the ground behind. I tried to make my fist looks like I have that big rock and tried to hit his face with that, he hesitated. I begin attacking him and aiming that fist on his face, without a big rock on my hand, he moved back and keeps moving back. Later on bystanders help out and cops cuffed him up.
