I fished my favourite France venue late august 2020 for the 1st time. Setup the swim and opened a 2.5l tub of tiger nuts. No word of a lie I was swarmed by 50+ wasps. I spent the majority of that week in my bivvy with my tigernuts wrapped in a black bag.

I put some of the tigernut juice in a make shift bottle wasp trap and caught hundreds of them

We are now coming into my favourite time of year for fishing here in southern Spain ...but its the worst time of year for aggressive wasps
i am usually forced off the banks by wasps ..once you have 20 or 30 around you they seem to become aggitated with each other and then eventually take it out on me last time i had 3 stings under 1 eye and i looked like the elephant man for a week
last week a mate was over from UK and drove up to the lake for a look around and a chat with me ...he brought his Mrs with him and she needed to have a wee ...so she wandered off in the trees away from us and then we heard a scream and we legged it to where she was crying her eyes out and quite hysterical running around ....she had been stung on a very intimate part of her antomy whilst squatting over a wasp nest
i personally didnt have a look but my mate said it didnt look right and kept saying have a look will you and what can we do !!!!! ...so i got him to cover it in Fenistil pain relief stuff and drive her home quickly as she was in a serious amount of pain ...im told by my mrs that it looked really bad and it was swollen for a week which obvoiusly seriously curtailed there romance for the rest of the holiday
