Best Of
Swamp Lizards
Gator season kicked off on Wednesday and by Thursday night I was tagged out for my first unit. The first night we had some serious cob webs to shake off and it seemed like one thing after another went wrong. Thunder storms, broken reel while hooked up, trolling motor popping out of the bracket and into the water, on and on. Alicia and I got it done though with a solid 9 foot female only an hour and a half into the hunt. With all the crap going wrong, capped by a tire blowout at night, we forgot to take time to get pictures of the two of us. That's a regret, but we'll have to make up for it on another gator soon.
Night two I had my best buddy since high school drive over from Jacksonville. He's really into bass fishing, so it worked out perfect that he'd fish while I looked for a gator I wanted to go after. Seems like gators are always less weary of fisherman, and we had several opportunities on 9 footers before I finally spotted a block head around 6:45. Made a stalk and the first cast hit its mark. 30 minutes later we had a solid 11'2 bull gator in the boat. Stark contrast from the prior night where everything went RIGHT on this hunt. 2 tags down, 4 to go.

Re: Puerto Rico. At least 10 containers of rotting supplies found.
That has not happened at all on this thread except for you. Make an effort to say why the article is baseless.Bimini Twisted said:Because we are not allowed to comment of the actions of the administration, or the reasons for those actions, or inaction.Finfinder said:why not ?
There is news on this front today, but instead of including that on this thread it will continue to stand as an opportunity to disparage Hispanics.
: on a side note its nice to see a Cuban stick up for Puerto Ricans for a change.
Re: Gov Scott declared a state of emergency
Here let me gently correct you....years late and several billion dollars short.
Re: FWC waives some rules for the red tide cleanup please read
Just make sure to take a pic with that slob snook you found dead and send it in to water life magazine for the cover shot.
Do we really need an executive order to be able to throw away rotting fish that's fouling up our waterways? I'm pretty sure the average FWC officer will be able to tell the difference between a stone solid snook sitting on your deck vs a freshly caught one on ice in your cooler.
