    Hiya Bob! The reason we gotta sit and wait of the deer is cause we cant see very far most of the time. That might be another one of the culture shocks you are experiencing. I find western hunting to be fun and easier compared to this eastern stuff. good luck on that bighorn tag. 30 points...

    The Atlantic red snapper season dates have been released - July 14 & 15. Total catch of 29,000 fish. NOAA is trying to replicate a graph - supposedly from the 1980's that shows a large population and widespread age to the fish. We are supposedly about 1/2 way there. The only way to represent...

    Received a negative on the alligator permit. They say it takes about 3 tries to get one - no preference points issued. Couple weeks to see the other draw results.

    Lithium

    I remember some guy in Oregon getting arrested or fined for building a pond. Made me realize than that the water rules are diff out west - we have year round streams and rivers and such, you guys don't. I'd expect the land prices to reflect the lack of mineral & water rights, and maybe they...

    Dumbell exercises

    went up to my dad's place last week - drove about 30 hrs total, loading unloading his truck, picked up some building supplies - nothing crazy but 8 bags cement, concrete blocks, PT lumber for stairs. I moved those 80# bags of cement 5x each and built a staircase where the old one was...

    Let me know when you come down - even if it is just for a beer. I keep my boat just down the road from there. Night bow fishing sounds interesting and they do it on the St Johns, iguanas are a couple hours south of here, and gators can be expensive if you don't hook up with a local.

    LoL! Anyway, there is no NR allocation. The deer hunting pretty much sucks tho - We have a hunt area that allows like 900 permits and they kill about 20 deer. I stopped hunting there and go to a diff area that only allows about 250 permits. Some of the turkey guys are starting to talk...

    I put in for 6 deer. Sambar deer, gator, and hog tags. The hurricanes last year…if your hunt area was affected, they let you keep your pref points. They kept me at 4 for ML (5 for rifle) So, looks like should get a ML and rifle tag. Was surprised at how many applications i put in and what...
