π Description
Myself and two friends were on the dock night fishing. No fire, red headlamps. Dark and silent night, with a bright moon peeking through dense clouds. Suddenly this humanoid/primate wooOOP. WooOOP. WooOOP. Repeated three times. My first thought was that it was a person messing with us, but as it continued it sounded less human and more ape. Insanely loud, and massive chest. I could feel the sound kind of like the bass at a concert. It scared all of us silent for awhile. It couldn't have been further then 100 yards, maybe much closer. It sounded like it was at the end of the dock, but was not. I did look back but it was far too dark to see anything. A few moments later, we heard what almost sounded like children chatting from the other side of the lake. Humaniod/primate, but small and further away. On the edge of hearing. Very bizzare.It wasn't until a few minutes after this event just when all the forest noises came back did I realize it was dead silent during the event. We tried to recreate the noise the next evening, and we couldn't come close in volume and depth of the woops. It wasn't a threatening or violent tone, but exceptionally intimidating. Made me feel small and vulnerable, but it was not a hostile or aggressive call. Whatever made that noise was massive. It is very simular to the "Sierra Sounds" wooping.
π Circumstances
3, including myself. We were all silent, night fishing off the dock. Not even really talking, no fire, the only noise was my buddy casting. No flashlights, we were using red headlamps but I believe they were off.
π€οΈ Weather Conditions
2am. Mostly overcast with little moonlight poking through the clouds. Chilly, no wind. Very dark.
