RE: Florida rut???

"what do you mean by wet when it comes to powder??? like standing water or holes or what??? i'm planning on coming out there sometime after the first of the year. "

When you come off main unto Powder...it is hard and solid. The road is kind of narrow. Two vehicles can juuuust get by. When you continue to drive about 3 miles up powder and around it begins getting very sanding.{ Fine white sand 6" high ,}I will not drive it. It continues to go into a big circle turning into 3 mile run and then Tanic where it meets up with Main again. So POwder is one big circle about 6 miles.I mostly hunt the very 1st 2 miles of Powder. The road is fine there and plenty of hogs and deer. the trick...finding them

The wetness. The area there is very flat and with the much rain the water just lays there. Water is mostly about 6"-12" deep. I've got nice Lacrosse rubber boots and my feet stay dry. However ...the hogs and deer will be in the bayheads. Tha twater is over my boots easy.{ The reason I'm not hunting it}SO far today since the last week of Sept. 10 deer killed and 49 hogs. Very sad.
