I was out on the delta fishing, and noticed something quite large moving in on me at an alarming rate. As I glanced over I saw the culprit, a large beast of a rodent about five pounds in weight. It had fresh kill in its mouth, and I could tell it wanted more by the way it stormed me. I tried to get up, but there was no time. It was now at my feet. In a blur I reached back and snatched my handy 940sbt osborne and slashed at it. At that moment it ducked, and ran underneath the rock I was sitting on. I am glad I had that knife handy, as I'm sure it would have cinched onto my pants and dragged me into the water drowning me almost instantly. Or at the very least pulled me under the rock for a quick bite to eat. I learned one thing today, I'll never go fishing again without the shotgun.

God damnit! VG - Haven't we told you not to harass the forumites when they're fishing! Bad, bad gerbil. No blood for you for a week!

Come on..... shotgun = overkill.

A Cold Steel Vietnam Tomahawk should do the trick. LOL

Andre,
I believe your country is responsible for designing the ideal tactical weapon for this sort of situation: the Striker 12? You can't mount too much firepower when dealing with aggressive, carnivorous rodents.

I'm heading out again in a couple of hours and I think I'll take the Battle Mistress. I'm not coming home this time without something to eat! Even if I end up with a good old rodent chowder. One swipe with the Mistress and shes in the bag.

Richard.....Now thats funny! I just got finished reading the newest one, with the dude in the farmland and his telescope. I always enjoy those. There good for a laugh. Jeff
 
Dsvirsky, the Striker was designed here, but was never available to civilians due to the automatic fire capability. Several years later a manual cocking version, identical in appearance, was released as the Protecta.

Getting back to the rodent problem I came up with a good idea. How about a couple of lbs of MS200/MP200? Pour around and shove under big rodent rock. When rodent raises snout again you can nuke him!
 
Andre,
Now that's proactive rodent control!

This wasn't a Nutria, was it?

I've heard those things can be about as tough as a wild pig/boar. 'Course, you live there, so you'd probably know better than me. But, from what I hear, I would go after it with less than a 12ga. slug gun.

I'm not sure if its a Nutria, but the suckers are tough. I would like to blast one with one of the explosive devices I used to make. Just for the fun of it though. Just bait with fresh kill and wait for the bloody rain.

I hope you didn't leave a dangerous wounded animal out in the bush waiting to kill an unsuspecting fisherman.
