Every year my dad and I usually hunt for 14 days in Myakka Fl. We just camp out in a tent. Typically this hunt is for whitetail so that the weather is comfortable. We usually also take a week trip in turkey season. Spring camping in Fl is sometimes unpleasant though.
I spent about 12 years in the Sarasota area and spent quite a bit of time at Myakka state park. I shot my one and only turkey on the High Hat ranch. Almost all of my other hunting in Florida was on Rutland Ranch in Manatee county or further out around Duette. I also hunted Fish eating creek, Avon and Inverness.
As much as I hated the heat and humidity, I loved the hunting there.
Thanks for bringing back the memories!
