There was a ton of turkeys near a campground with a small lake that Fall. I've always said I'd go back some day...


This will be my second trip. The first time I went in 2009, we hiked in about 4 miles, and we awoke to 10-12 birds gobbling within 200 yards of our campsite every morning. It was amazing. I'll be sure to post plenty of pics on my return. I'll be useless next week at work because I'll be so anxious.

I'll trade you my knowledge of Gila for some knowledge on some Florida birds when I get time to make a trip down there

One of my goals for this Fall is to try to set a trade hunt thread on the Outdoor Board.

While I personally cant take everyone who wants to go Osceola hunting, I typically guide one or two hunters each Spring. We may be able to line something up for sure. I'm not batting a thousand but I'm damn close..

What I will do though, is relinquish the best kept secrets for public land hunting and obtaining trespass permits. I'll tell the OB when and how to apply for limited draw permits and in which units. The prime units will take two years to draw; but many have a nearly 50% success rate. So I may not be able to take you hunting but I can damn sure put you in the birds. The good news is a draw permit and a hotel is a hell of a lot cheaper than a $2K guided hunt and more fun too..
