gotta give Chuck props, a lotta folks wont think of huntin that thick...but thats where the true swamp monsters lurk...witnessed it myself this season, caught a quick glimpse of the biggest racked buck I have ever seen in the swamp in the super thick real tall tines n way outside the ears... sounded like a tornado comin thru when he went to runnin a doe...that buck is and will be on my mind a lot...hopefully next season will bring us all better luck

Thanks sir....unless spooked by other hunters you will hear game walking off and on all day..

Seein as the FWC has approved higher antler restrictions in North FL and are lookin at other propositions looks as they are takin measures to improv e deer hunting throughout the state...hopefully this is a good sign we may get our Green Swamp hunt dates moved up this upcoming season...

has anyone ever attempted to do any scoutin durin the fishin/froggin season in the swamp? i know its a lil early but was thinkin on goin n settin a cam for that month period n see what i can come up with....

Yes...I did..found a decent spot off of Tram....was scouting on the 471 side.

From what i read...only the southern end of the area roads are open right?

Not sure...I did my scouting during turkey season...found an ok spot on Tanic and Tram...but will never know until I sit it out...The Tram is a long walk..the Tanic one is not that bad.

Yea theres some good areas down off tanic and tram...only thing i dont like about huntin down on the south ends of them roads is come huntin season seems half the people huntin are huntin that river bed down through there gets a tad bit crowded but south of the river holds some far thick walk areas most wont go....Im gonna try to make it up there durin this fishin/froggin season n see what i can find

Hunting during the middle of the week ....you don't see many hunters.. I did see one stand at the Tanic area,,,,but I walked way past his stand.

My Tram spot is in a thick hammock...very far walk..saw no signs of hunters. So thick I placed tacks about every 10 feet...

I still plan to scout much more..I usually buy 500 tacks yearly and run out.

Yea I am ready to get out there n start my homework too...
