I have permits for both Bull Creek and Three lakes for this coming "opener". I've only hunted Three lakes a few times before....didnt see much but the deer sign looked good. I know pretty much every part of Bull creek, been hunting there for 30 years. Yes, most of the deer are hold up in the swamp bottoms, but I've had pretty good luck in the palmetto fields on the swamp edges too. bull creek is very dry right now, as is most of our state. If my buddy doesnt come through to hunt with me at bull creek, maybe we can hook up at 3 lakes....I dont like going out by myself anymore, I'm not young and invincable anymore!

10-4 ..I need a partner too,. Right now my son is my partner..but will let you know if that changes..He can't get the time off like I get.

So Anybody get up there yet?

Any 2nd Rut Chasin?

So are the passes there in the AM or is there hunters waiting to get in before 1st light. My son and I are planning for a trip next week. How hard is it to get in in the AM?

Same question for Bull Creek if anyone knows

Last time I was there ..2 weeks ago..a worker would not let the vehicles go through until 5:00..I plan { God willing and my knee holding up} to be there this Sat..I'm checking out a new spot..I wished I lived closer so I could do better scouting..lot's of decent looking terrain that is condusive for deer hunting..but it would be nice to find that one special spot {-;

At bull creek last sat. morning, there were people lined up befor 5:00 waiting to get in. There should'nt be a line this weekend, but they won't let you through before 5:00. As for me...I saw a 4 point and a couple of does. As of the time I left un. evening, there had been six deer taken out that weekend. One being a 152lb 8 point.I know that does'nt sound like much to you guys in other states..... but here in central Fl., thats a whopper!!!

Oh, and everyone I talked too that had taken a deer said that "he was chasin does".

FL Swamper..any buck in a WMA in central Florida is a whooper.LOL

So how does this work at BC and 3L..you show your hunting license and they give you some kind of paper pass? What kind of entry process goes on.

Just finished sighting in....ready to rock and roll next weekend...

I haven't been to BR but I have been in Three Lakes,,,,

Pull vehicle up...to some one standing in the road

They hand you a post card like deal..they don't check your license.

Drive on

WHen you are done you check off a couple squares and put card in box..and drive on

.IF you score you ..you stop and they weigh it..remove jaw bone
