Talk about revenge.... Those caimen (crocs/gators) are usually the ones ambushing out of the water like that. Crazy.

Josh and I called in a small female 75-90 pounds to 11 yards. She came in behind us looking past us at the call. One she figured out what was going on I want to say she got aggressive ish. (menacing looking) not happy at all. Then josh yelled and she left but ya to close
That had to be pretty exciting. So a dominate stance and war cry worked for you guys.
I just thought of this but a taser in self defense might be appreciated more than a face blast with a gun from 10yards. Unless you want to get intiment with it and put a blade into it that might make for some PTSD though.
Poor guy went in a memorable fashion. I want to go body surfing some shore break and a killer whale sliding up onto the beach grab me and throw me into the air and his partner rip out my liver and let me float ashore for friends and family.

Haha check.
Here's a thought. House cats hate water guns who wants to test this theory out on the top of the Southern California food chain? Just a big squirt to the face

Just Saying
With as many cats as you guys seem to see why aren't there more attacks?
Can't find an article I found on the number of nuisance cat permits given out. It said they issue and kill more than they would if they let hunters kill them.
In 25 plus years hunting locally I've only seen 2.

That's interesting. It's been a few years but about 10 years back agents killed 3 cats in a span of 4 years stalking children at a preschool/elementry right next to Steele canyon golf course on the edge of jamul. Thankfully no kids were hurt.
Someone mention earlier they are like sharks. It's the ones you don't see stalking you are the ones you might not walk away from.

2 flashes and 1 at 47 yards pretty crazy story. Huge tom. 1 much much closer with
Josh. I call it 3 1/2 lions I've seen in my years in the field.
As for the lack of attacks. I don't think they're looking for us. If they were wed have big problems
If you want to see one cover yourself in doe pee and go hike around lake cuyamaca. Don't ask how I know but there is a huge Tom that lives very close to the lake. Moral of the story if a bottle of doe pee dumps in your hunt pack don't use it the next day for your fishing pack. When lions smell s!#€ running down your leg they tend to leave. WAY to close for comfort. We're talking waking up from a nap to a cats head buried in your pack mere 2 ft away.
Got news for you guys: "It's the ones you don't see stalking you are the ones you might not walk away from" is the truth.
If any of you spend anytime away from the roads you have been stalked or at least watched. Long tail are everywhere in this state.
I once had a conversation with a woman sitting in the booth at Caspers. She informed me that she "had been there for ten years and NEVER saw a mountain lion". So I entered the park knowing she was full of it. Sure enough, park and walk less than 50 yds from where I parked by the horse corral and there you are. Right across the creek from the horse corral is a 90-100 lb lion trying to figure out how to snack on those horses.
This was less than 200 yrds from where 'informed granny park ranger' was sitting.
Remember they are always around. They are deliberately hard to see. They aren't going to move until you are a snack.

Walking thru woods last year, came upon mid sized lion crouching by a log. He was motionless until I was about 30 yards out coming towards him, did not even see him until he jumped up and sprinted away. GF was on other side of trail about 40 yards away. His arms and shoulders were really powerful, I would not want to be surprised by him flying airborn onto my back!!
