Hi, I just got back from south Georgia and florida. We didnt go to many parks but looked around in the forests. We saw 23 alligators. I waded in the water with a big mother alligator. I called one to the bank and rubbed it. We saw a gopher tortoise,a florida cooter,a glossy crayfish snake,a cottonmouth,a dusky pigmy rattlesnake,A few other river cooters,an eastern glass lizard,an eastern coachwhip,three black racers,an indigo snake skin that was recently shed,and a big yellow rat snake.

We couldnt catch the cottonmouth. We were on swamp road and we stopped at a little pond and when we saw the cottonmouth it immediatly took off. The main thing I wanted to see was alligators and pigmy rattlesnakes, so I wasnt dissapointed. Oh yeah If anyone plans on going down in that area anytime soon, It is still time, It was about 80 something degrees when I was there. I had to take my shirt off because it was so hot.

So you hunted snakes down
Swamp Rd. Its my favorite spot and i dont think that there is another place near that is as good as that road! There is another place, well two places that I know are good if not better, but i cant really give directions. I know exactly where they are at but i cant explain it. When you went down Swamp rd., did you see the store named Aden's? Well the road on the right beside it is my road and i am the first house on the right with a chain link fence round it. If you come down again stop by and we can show you some of the best places. There is one spot that i know where there are about 12 or more alligators in one creek and no one else knows about it or they would be dead right now. Well just email me or something if you read this.

We dont keep a lot that we catch. We keep a few canebreaks and pygmys we and some others. If we find any thing real rare we may keep it also. Most of the time we just take pics and let them go. We keep a limit on what we keep. We have some pygmies we have had for some time now, would you like one? Im not sure if Jason is going to get them or not but im sure he dont want them all. I heard you like pygmies.
