This didn't happen. The second you splash into that water, they're gone, far enough away from the crash at least that they csn't be spotted by foggy vision in dark green water.
- artogahr 4y agoCouldn't it be that his brain only fabricates that part of the memory, to fill in the blanks of panic period of being underwater?
- mod 4y agoI do think that my brain may have fabricated that part. It's the fishy part--pun intended. I have never been picked up again by my scalp, so I think that's decent reason to believe the memory of the physical sensation is pretty accurate. There's not a lot else to the memory.
- mod 4y agoI tend to agree, however depending on the size of fish and some other factors, many don't scare off very far. I don't think it's definitive. (I'm an avid fisherman despite the dock fall!) I'm not actually familiar with perch as an adult. I last caught one when I was maybe 8 years old. After googling, I believe they were "yellow perch" (caught in northern Indiana)
