A Little Hog Excursion

All great pics but honestly, I'd have shot that spider.

It was a great day! Started off in the mid 60's and was a very pleasant day to be in the woods and on the water! My main objective for the day was to scout a couple of funnels I had picked out on aerial maps. We went about a mile and a half down and the 2 spots I had picked look very very promising for some rut hunting!!
We also found 2 places where there was more hog sign and scat than I've ever seen before. It was pretty apparent that these spots have not seen any pressure in a long time if ever!
We saw 5 gators on the way back out after temps started warming up a bit. I got within about 5' of one of them. Unfortunately I am not able to post pics from my phone..
we're gonna plan another trip before the temps get to warm and put out some trail cams on the funnels and may do a little fishing along the way!!

Oh yeah,  That dang spider was the biggest spider I've ever seen!!

She was doing her thing in her own backyard. We've crossed paths with several copperheads and I almost stepped on a cottonmouth a few years ago. If they were in my yard it may be another story. In theirs, they get a pass. They have a difficult enough time not getting eaten by the hogs or the gators.

Man I can hack snakes.  Enjoy catching and playing with them.  Spiders and scorpions well . . .
