Deer hunting, a little Duck hunting, Turkey, I love it all. The fever starts to hit me about this time each year when I start getting the pics from my game camera's.

Shrimps are running on the St John's river by Palatka and the last 3 days they have brought in three 5 gallon buckets at 35 lbs each bucket. Maximum limit is one five gallon bucket per boat per day.

While I fish year round, (on the boat, :D ) I also hunt deer, turkeys, and any other game I can chase. Love to be in the woods, but the cold weather is the BEST time for fishing......decisions, decisions

Southerners often boat as long as there are leaves--first 2 weeks of November. Then, we get out on the water through December only on the very nicest days. But Saturdays are always reserved for SEC Football.

We camp in the North Georgia mountains through New Years--in a RV. Otherwise, we try to get our two big vacations out of the way before May, as we don't want to waste our boating days after May 1st.
