We are suppost to be getting some snow flurries down here, most likely it will melt and just be cold rain, but the weatherman said you should be able to see a couple of flakes.
This is BS, I want my warm weather back!!!!

Craig, it snowed once back in the 70's. I remember because they closed the schools. Not a lot of snow but it stayed on the roofs and in the shady places for a few hours after daylight.
I like the colder weather, but not sure I want to hunt if its snowing!! I definately like the weather we have been having better than the 98 degree days with 100 % humidity......

Can't wait to jump on the airboat and go kill a deer in the morning  . Bucks moving good can't wait. As far as the snow that's what they say well see. |

Where you going on an airboat? I have one but its a small frog gigging boat. 4 cylinder GP Continental motor. Does good with two people, but three people is a load for it.

Lake Hatchineha and Kissimmee both are about 20 mins from my house. Got a 13'6" Cottonmouth with a o540. Goes pretty good with 3 dogs and two grown guys with a cooler and a full gas tank. My buddy went out last night until around 1:30 a.m. and saw 5 that he said would go on his wall every doe he saw had a buck not far behind.

I like that part of the world...... We have a 18' Bass Tracker too that we put in at Southport and fish the river down to Kissimmee. I like catching the Specks this time of year...if I can quit chasing the fool hogs long enough......The Specks are better eating anyway! I hog hunt a place down by Reedy Creek swamp ( I am not allowed to deer hunt it....unfortunately) and a guy killed a real nice 13 point there this week . He said it came in with a real good 8 point. Another guy killed a 181 lb 19" wide 8 point around the same place last week.......They said the same thing, the bucks are stirred up and chasing does. |

Dang Mark, dont tell me your one of them guys out there with 20 cane poles hangin off the side of the boat. Me and my dad aint caught a dang thing for speck this year, should be getting good now with all of this cold weather. I saw a monster buck last night at about 12, I might have to try and get him before season ends sunday. |

No, two poles is about all I can handle...... I fish different than most, I use two spinning reels on rods. No weight, no bobber, just a long shank hook and a minnow. I free cast this and let it drift. I catch Specks, big Bluegill, Channel cats and Bass this way. Even caught a Nile Perch last year and I thought they were vegetarians....... |

I'm not sure who that was but most the guys out there now are all young guys mid 20's. Yep Cottonmouth from Davenport that's my grandpa that owns it. |

You must be mistaken. It cannot possibly be that cold in Florida. Owl Gore said that we are all going to die from the heat.
