I would leave the dock at 6am in the dark and navigate with a spotlight to my fishing spots on the St Johns. BIG RED EYES everywhere...
I've had 14-15 fters chasing my Zara SPooks...eating my 9" shiners..being a real PITA.
For 850 bucks you can tag 2 in Florida.
Got a call from Orlando...things may be in the werks..
All gator hunting is is spotlighting..shooting a fishing arrow into them with a float...follow the float and harpoon with a bigger rope..drag to the boat and bang stick in the head....
Not much more than Gar fishing..
Not much sport really. At night you can drive an airboat w/i 20 yards with 200 Mil candel power lights blaring
Good meat though and the hides bring a pretty penny.
NO DANGER at all

Catfishing for Big Channels/Blues Sat Night
I am planning on catfishing Aquilla. I've got some real good spots for some heavy fish. I got 3 rods already rigged with heavy stuff...
As payback for this week, I'm inviting up to 3 people to join me and the boy. We'll tie up and fish vertcal so I can take more people on the boat with little to no casting...
I'll be throw netting for shad and have some CF bait as well..
Gas is on me..BYOB Got Black lights so you can watch your line if you got Stren Mono...
You can have what I catch otherwise we'll release.
RSVP by THursday.....
I'll be launching about 7pm..fishin till midnight or later if they are bitin.

The dead chicken is gator bait. Man I've got to go after gator some time cause I like it fried like fish.
Grizz if it happens let me know what the deal is.
I'm thinking I'n going back fri. so I probably won't make it fri. night but wish ya'll luck.. I have so much to take care of tomorrow and Thursday that I really can't commit to anything yet. The fish fry was great.

Look for a 20Ft Stratos w/ a 200 main w/ a 9.9 kicker. Your welcome to follow.
It looks real possible that this is my last fall here so I don't mind sharing some spots. Hunting spots will be shared after the season.
