I almost became a perch for a great horned owl one night holdover fishing. I thought i was seeing things when this black dot in space kept getting larger and larger. After blinking my eyes, i saw this gigantic owl coming in for a landing on my 1201-L ... holy crappola, the talons on that f-er were huge- I waved my rod and hollered and it feered off course parralell with my head and I could just imagine those talons digging into my face after it slid down my lamiglas... :
