Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire So what’s wrong about living in Florida ?

I wish you wouldn't post pictures of my fishing buddy

Fishing in Floriduh sucks.




It is very expensive.




The state has secret agents that keep an eye on your every move.






The people are just plain weird.




Some of the natives will eat you.





Fer the love of God, DON'T COME DOWN HERE!!!!!

It's really pretty down in the keys, but the fishing is better in South Louisiana.

Cost more in Louisiana and there is too much travel time to good fishing grounds when compared to the Keys.
I'd rather be fishing crystal clear blue water off coral reefs than doing roundy rounds at an oil rig all day..

Both places do have good fishing, the keys can be a tad spendyer on hotel accommodations.

The worst thing about living in Florida is--
The Liberal yankees who move here from the northeast, Indiana, Michigan (the blue plate specials), who want avoid the high taxes where they came from, but strive to make Florida just like --Up Home!!
Oh, and the Canadians who winter here-- they bring one shirt and a $20,00 dollar bill and don't change either one!

LOL

I'll take a three-day blizzard before endless hot and steamy days.

I have not fished Lousiana yet but I have the Keys and they are spectacular.

The irony in all this is that in comparison to the time frame up to the mid to late '80s, today's fishing in Floriduh sucks slimy swamp water, especially down in the Keys.

Are you suggesting a time machine is in order?

It use to snow so heavy in Montana that it'd be up to my waist almost every time. It don't snow like that anymore.

That's back when I was 5 years old...

No, I suggest we are reaping the rewards of ill considered abuse of the state's waters. 99% of our estuarine waters are impaired by pollutants as well as 80%+ of inland water. It's the gift bequeathed by millions of Yankees and neatly wrapped by idiot politicians.

Floriduh sucks, spread the word.

In all the years of being around Florida I've never known them to have fish or game management plans that made any sense.

Back in the day we got to catch all the King Mackerel we wanted until there was none.
I use to net all the Red's I could sell, until there was none.

It's always sorta been like just do it but when they are all gone stop... Whatever you call that kind of management plan it's what they run with.....

Oh, wait a minute..they did claim the Alligator to be endangered at one time and protected them...Until they decided they were wrong and de-listed it....

I will say that Florida state fish and game management is consistent, if that's a quality when you suck.

Answer: Run to Fail

That Army Corp of Engineers really did the Everglades a big favor many years ago didn't they.. HOw many thousand truckloads will be needed to fix that mess?

FLorida needs to put a cap on residents...When I left in 1995 I didn't think it could hold more people.

Too hot, too many people, too many snakes and bugs some of which can kill you.

I'd live in a bug's anus before I moved to fugking Vermont.

FWC is not the problem. It's the legislature primarily, and the state agencies and local jurisdictions that bow to them such as the water districts and ambitious county commissions. In short, it is how development is promoted and regulated with application of myopic objectives. There in nothing in the state that contributes more to our economic success than water, not even close, yet we continue to fug it up at every turn.

Everything I know I just leaned in the afternoon. We decided to spend the week in the keys. Left FLL airports at 11am. Got into Marathon at 4pm. 141 miles in 5 hrs. Does everybody and their brother haul their fishing boat south come Saturday ? JFC. I thought I was going to commit Hari Kari by the time I got here

Decided to go to the grocery. I turned around and left. It was like Mother’s Day in the projects.

I don’t know if it is always like this but, I think I have had enough already and I got 6 more days.

Good thing your room wasn't in Key West, you still wouldn't be there yet...lol
