  1. Snakes we're every where.Seen around 50 I would guess counting cottonmouths and water snakes. I did manage one pretty sunperch I took a break in the shade and just soaked it all in for awhile. Caught a couple small ones while relaxing. The last fish of the morning was a smallmouth bass which was a treat. When I got back to the truck he was waiting for me. Made it home safe and sound but exhausted.
  2. I haven't had much time for nature in the past month.Today I skipped work and headed out to a local creek.Its still a little early in the year for creek fishing but I couldn't wait any longer. Immediately after casting off I spotted the enemy. Fishing was slow and the water was very cold but I managed a few.
  3. We were bowfishing one night when this little turtle no bigger than a coin started to hunt minnows in our bright lights so I scooped him up.
  4. Most rednecks keep a couple extra plugs laying in their boat in case of trouble.A drunk redneck changing a spark plug while stranded in the swamp.Theres probably tons of them in the river systems in my opinion.
  5. I've never found a gator gar.Even pushed back deep in the mobile Delta.No luck
  6. I ain't no Yankee but yes in Alabama we have around 30 types of turtles.What we call terrapins live in the woods and yes they stink.I had a terrier who ran loose as a kid and he would bring them home and chew em till he got inside. I caught my youngest daughter a baby turtle two years ago. He's still small.His aquarium is washed and scrub once a week or her room will stink.She is ready to release him as she is tired of cleaning.We just waiting for river water temps to get up to room temps.
  7. I'd be more scared of that bait than a big gator ? That gator tail good eating if done right. Do you have many gator gar in your area?
  8. We got this 12 footer years ago.The hide man said he guessed this gator to be 70 but he said it could be older. He was covered in scars.He was missing his right front foot if you look close. If you look closely in this picture you will see that a 12 foot gator has a weewee the size of a crayon ? Gators stink so bad that while riding in the back of the truck with this dinosaur I got sick and had to vomit over the side of the truck.It landed on the windshield of a new Mercedes ? Good times ?
  9. Most people's first encounter is similar if they were honest about it. ?You're right they do have some terrier ways about them.
  10. I don't think most folks realize how a big boar can creep past you but you're right they can.Years ago some of us hog hunters had access to a 1000 acre high fence.We put a big boar in there.Years later the owner wanted the boar removed.It was July.95 degrees with 90% humidity.We knew the old boar would be hard to find in these conditions.We had quads driving all over the place.We tried my dad's curs and they blanked.We tried a friend's plott hounds but they blanked.After trying numerous dogs from numerous men.We drive back to my dad's and got an old bitch who was coldnose.She found him in a sm
  11. I started searching YouTube for a certain sound.It took me awhile but I found what I was looking for.
  12. I took a business road trip yesterday.These songs helped me drive fast.
  13. IF you're a music enthusiast give this a watch.Musicians from all over the world say my small area has magic mud in the river that produces hit recordings.i have drank alot of that mud and still can't sing lol.Give it a watch sometime.
  14. I'm speaking of information from 10 or 15 years ago.Small jags who didn't meet their written standard were not allowed to be registered.So I doubt the small digging type were at the exhibition.Just my opinion as I wasn't there.The good digging jags I seen were too small to be registered generally.I don't know if the rules are the same now. Sorry to derail hare topic.
  15. I hunted jags with a few men from Serbia when they were here.Did you see any jags work when you were over there?
