EAST TEXAS HOG DOGGERS FORUM

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!!!!

you are going to have to live like the rest of us poor fools for a couple of days  ;D

has it ever snowed in florida before?

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......

I think it's called global warming! ;D

Oh yeah thats the answer to everything now a days

Can't wait to jump on the airboat and go kill a deer in the morning :o.  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.

i guess we wlii be wearing our thermals and huddies on sat on the buggy!
 :o

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...... ;D 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.

Yeah those guys are tearing the speck up right now on Hatchineha.  That whole Reedy Creek area is loaded with huge deer.

Dang Mark, dont tell me your one of them guys out there with 20 cane poles hangin off the side of the boat. ;D
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...... :o 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.......

Is Ole "Rattlesnake" the Game Warden still running around down there on his airboat.......

Ol Cottonmouth airboats out of Davenport......  :)

I doubt it.  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.

I was born and raised in Davenport...... I have been on a many of 'em!!!!  Good boats............ ;D Caught a bunch of hogs off of them.....

I can't wait for some warm weather to come back. I like my Cottonmouth too. It floats like a cork and can haul a load with no worries  ;D

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.

rainy and windy  with 44 behind its back= laid up in bed

36 degrees here right now  :o

friend of the wifes in palm bay or something like that near daytona said they had flurries.  according to weather.com its 37 but feels like thrity in lehigh acres.  its suppose to get down to like 26 this weekend...my pups are damn near frozen and they are in the garage...lol

Well, my thermometer on the back porch reads 22 degrees right now at 9:15 PM.....its cold........

I got up to go to work today ( I do have to work now and then...)
and it was snowing...I think.

Here are some pics I took this morning. I am not sure how well they will show up, but this is as close to snow as we see down here.

It may have been a GOOD day to work...and NOT hunt.... :o
