Dan,

That looks like a place I use to fish on the upper end of the Big Satilla River in Georgia back in the middle 80's.

Well, you should try not to get directly under the eagles. :o :D :D

There are Bass, Crappie, Catfish, and all sorts of Sunfish...Bream we call'em down here.  Oh yeah, there's a whole bunch of big ol' 'gators in there too, but they don't bother ya. ;)

I did little piece on that place a few months ago down in the outdoor section.  More pics there.

I'm thinking maybe in two summers , I have a date for this coming summer , so gas allowance is going there . But ...  Next after that , might be to go down way down further then the last time I tried . That should give you time to get that pondtoon afloat  ;D

That would be fantastic Marcel! 8) 8) 8)  We'd have to use the little boat though, as the pontoon won't fit through some places.

Got room for three in that boat? Ya'll are two of the folks I would truly like to meet.
'98 LT40HDD/Lombardini, Case 580L, Cat D4C, JD 3032 tractor, JD 5410 tractor, Husky 346, 372 and 562XP's. Stihl MS180 and MS361, 1998 and 2006 3/4 Ton 5.9 Cummins 4x4's, 1989 Dodge D100 w/ 318, and a 1966 Chevy C60 w/ dump bed.

It's a two man rig Lee, but I can lay my hands on another one.  Also got plenty of places for the pontoon, and it is licensed for 16.  Y'all need to be aware that you might be exposed to such riff-raff as Tom, Woodbowl, Fishpharmer, Slabs, WDH, Brdmkr, Ellmoe, and Customsawyer if ya come down here.  Hope I didn't scare ya off. ::)

September is hotter than a...ahh...eerrr...well, it's HOT!  October ain't bad at all, and the Moultrie show is that month.  If you got all your stuff swept up into one pile before you came down, would you be OK to get home by Oct 20 or so?
What about Spring?  When do you get away from snow duty?  April and May are great down here, and even June ain't too bad.

May is cool , ya right !!!!! I was down ther e in amy , the end of May one time and the thermometer ahd hit 100 jsut about the time I crossed into Georgia , thats about the time I did a U turn and came back north ... to South Carolina , hit the beach there and sar fur a week .
  But to answer , snow duty is on till April , after that I can git going . I would miss the flooding ,  ::)

  So I would need to let part of a hunting season go by to head out that way in the fall ... gonna do some cogitating and git back to you on that .

Anytime in April and the first half of May is perfect.  That's about as good as it gets.  The earlier in that time frame, the better for you I would think.  The fishing is really good then too.

Arky, that picture is mighty pretty but I'll have to agree with Bob.

The boat idea sounds good though.  :D
