A synopsis for you texas folks. I hope your state never ends like this.
The state of Fl buys millions and millions of acres of swamp land, old ranches and state "deemed" needed land. All in the name of "water management and easement areas. They buy Billions and Billions of dollars worth of land with tax payer money. Bought from the pockets of every tax dollar in Fl.
Then it cannot be touched by anybody. The open a few limited areas for hiking and horseback riding.
Then in the goodness of there heart....the "allow" hunters to hunt hogs on 1/2000 of the land they own, that we paid for and charge us $50 for 3 days access out of the whole year. That you have to draw over the computer on a first come first serve basis.Because the hogs become "too much to handle".
BTW this is the only hunting allowed on Millions of acres because the hogs are a nuisance. And the permits sold out in less than 6 minutes.
Sounds like a great deal for Fl hunters HUH?
