My story is short but True . This sighting occurred while fishing in the Mississippi river , in the spring of 1983 , probably April, between one and two o’clock in the afternoon . It was a crystal clear blue sky , with not even a wisp of a cloud anywhere. We were fishing from a floating dock , where river pilots , shipping agents and river workers catch their water taxis to the ships. My fishing buddy and I were using heavy tackle and we caught three large catfish that day. I was on the westbank of the river facing east , and after casting, put my pole down , sat next to it , with my legs over the side , and leaned back on my elbows , looking above the horizon .

Shortly thereafter , I witnessed an oval , light grey object  - coming from Out of the blue sky , on my left (N) at incredible speed and bolt across it , due south.   The length of sky it traversed was approximately one and a half to two feet of space between outstretched arms. ! It was probably 45 degrees above the horizon or a little higher .  Then it disappeared - Into the blue sky , in a split second.   The total time of the sighting was no more than 2 or 3 seconds max - no wings , no blinking lights , no sound , no sonic boom , no contrails.  It had absolutely no resistance from the atmosphere whatsoever !  I immediately turned to my fishing buddy and asked, “Did you see That ?” , and he said, “ See What ?” – well that figures .  
My location was several miles south of New Orleans.  It was very high in the sky , 25,000 feet or higher ? ,  and about the size of a BB or smaller,  at arms length , but clear as day against the blue sky.  It didn’t stop and ask directions, it was in a big hurry.   I felt lucky to see it , even though it felt like I saw something I wasn’t supposed to see.   It was either a black budget toy that could fly 10 times faster than a jetliner , in 1983 , without wings and that nagging - friction from the atmosphere problem , or ‘something even more interesting’.  This was 27! years a go but I’ll never forget those 2 or 3 seconds for the rest of my life – been looking into the whole matter since then , with negative results as to the whole Truth , but quite satisfied with a bias.  Maybe the Truth is too much for us right now ...     - Anonymous
