What part are you hunting? I have a friend that has a 2000 acre hunting ranch down there. I was suppose to hunt hogs with him over thanksgiving 06 but my time schedule wouldn't allow it. I am hoping it works out next year.

I'm back! Just like a bad penny you cant get rid of me! Florida weather was nice but the hunting sucked!
With the drought conditions the last two years most all the flag ponds are dry and the water holes are gone and most of the hogs have moved to Fish Eating Creek river which is a couple miles away, plus the drought caused a record crop of acorns from the live oak. The animals have more food than they can eat and wont come to the feeders.
I hunted 4 times and never saw a hog. Saturday morning i heard a couple squealing about 75-100 yds from my stand but they never came in.
Sunday morning a cold front came in and the wind blew 30+ mph. There was about 10 guys hunting the weekend and not one killed a hog.
I had a great time visiting with old friends at camp and road around in the "Cuban Bus" which is a swamp buggy owned by a Cuban named Pablo. It holds 6 people and can go threw water 6 ft deep. We road around a couple dry flag ponds Saturday night trying to jump up some hogs but there was no water and no hogs.
They invited me back in March for Osceola turkey and hog hunting. Not sure if I'm going but might. An Osceola turkey hunt sells for $1600.00 - $2500.00 now but all I would have to buy is a $150.00 license.
Dr Greyhound,
I was laying in a hot tub Sunday afternoon with a cool drink in hand and suddenly it crossed my mind, "now this type of hunting would be right up Doc's ally"! ;D h.h.
