Toothy Critter
Guest
I recently discovered a new resident within an abandoned cranberry bog I have been fishing for years. A beaver, and he is not too happy to have me as a neighbor. He is relentless in his tail slapping while I am night fishing, so I generally give him his space. But I also fly fish while wading in the bog during the day with just shorts and water shoes on. My concern is, given the territorial nature of beavers, should I be concerned about an underwater attack by a stubborn critter? I have waded and fished Pine bogs for years and was always concerned about snapping turtles, but have never been bothered by them. Given the seemingly increase in beaver waters I am seeing, I was just worried about them real nasty "toothy critters" using my leg for a maple tree
