"Family" by military and fishing bonds only, but guess as bonds go those are two pretty good ones to have. :thumbup:

Passing of "PA" Futchcairo

Been a while since I've had time to visit the forum, but wanted to let any of the longtime board members know that "PA" Futchcairo (Alfred Earl Futch Sr) died back in August of 2023. He sure led a full life, with flight combat service in Guam during WWII, tons of hard work in numerous Flor...

Re: Needing Home(s) for Tasty Pigs

Just wondering how the population of pigs is doing. Do you still have more to eradicate? Put a big hurting on the local population between March and June with a total of 78 hogs harvested. Typically piglets are easier to hunt / trap than adults, but frustratingly it was a set of 4 young orphaned pi...

Re: Costa Films: Tribute to Jose Wejebe/Spanish Fly

Very much enjoyed seeing it and thank you for the share, SK. That said, found it interesting the YouTube description shows it as "unlisted", meaning only those who receive the link can see it. Couldn't help but wonder why they wouldn't want it a public tribute to Jose and the wonderful exp...

Re: Need to buy crabs

The "big bend" description of the forum covers quite a distance of coast line.

If you can share the general vicinity of where you're wanting to launch it might help folks give answer(s) that are most convenient for you. :thumbup:

Re: Needing Home(s) for Tasty Pigs

Please bear with me if I screw-up, as this is my first posting on this site. I am an old cripple who used to love to hunt and eat what I killed. I can no longer do that. My wife and I would love to consume another wild hog. Unfortunately she just ordered a freezer-full of organic pork. Would this o...

Re: Needing Home(s) for Tasty Pigs

we kill them nearly daily here but i've never seen Deer and Pigs in the same area like that. deer typically always run off when they come out. pretty neat to see! Yep, the deer usually defer to the pigs when it comes to claiming ground. That shared, I get a fair number of trail camera hits where th...

Depends a bit on part of Tallahassee. I'm about 20 mins from the east side / live very close to where Apalachee Highway/US27 meets 59 at the turn towards Wacissa.

Re: Needing Home(s) for Tasty Pigs

I just want to help shoot them. I can even do it with a crossbow if you want to keep it hush-hush. Got so many not even a prayer of a chance getting the numbers in check shooting them (done that in the past and taken out several sounders a pig or two at a time). Nope... finding the method in this v...

Re: 'Swamp lilies'

Should have no problem finding them at all right now... drove from Monticello area down to the Wakulla area this past weekend and they were about as thick as they get along almost the entire stretch once we hit the flat coastal portion of the drive.
