Was able to get loose for a couple of hours today so I grabbed "Mojo" and headed to Fort stewart.Its the only place I can hunt in June and July except for a small tract of private land I have to boat to and I did`nt have time for that.
It was VERY hot and muggy but I managed to make a big loop in the Cannoche River swamp.Got into lots of pig sign right of the bat. I`ve hunted this area before so I did know where to start.
I heard a noise in some water and made my way over to a mini waterfall...

Ran a group of pigs off I had`nt seen in a small thicket when they winded me. I shot a bunch of stumps and logs and drank about a gallon of cold water back at the truck .The heat index was 105. But I loved it.RC
Think that's a Brown Recktaloose spider? Catch any fish? Nice pics. Thanks
Stratere, I ain`t got a clue what kinda spider it is. I did`nt fish any but if I had I would have caught some....lol.RC
You got to love a guy who goes out and hunts in this kind of weather.
Hot humid weather...spiders...snakes...your a better man than me RC! :notworthy: :eek:
RC, I evesdrop on most of your hog hunting posts... Always entertaining and the good possibility of me learning something. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one crazy enough to tromp around in a swamp with the snakes and bugs during the summer! Better luck next time.

Thanks again for sharin' another outing RC!
105 - stay alive!
Shoot straight, Shinken
You nearly would've had to take your jumper off, RC! I always enjoy reading about your outings and adventures. Many happy returns of the day to you!
Always enjoy reading about your adventures RC...great pix also!
RC's not afraid of any spiders and snakes :notworthy:
Thanks for taking us along RC. I have been wanting to get down to Ft. Stewart and hunt. As big as it is I just have not done the homework to make it happen.
they were moving late yesterday afternoon right after a big storm came by. the storm put us getting in too late, but we got on them and could not close the deal. u need to come visit me rc when u get that new widow--we can try it out very shortly after!
That's not a brown recluse. Here is what they look like:

I think that's a nursery web spider. They are pretty common, but not especially dangerous. Big suckers though!

Right on RC, love your hunts also, Man that's kinda.... well... hot! comes to mind.
105 + humidity :scared: ..... I think you might have swine flu, you might want to see a doctor, lol you got it bad... real bad. :thumbsup:
I sweat hard when we get close to 80 up here, can't imagine trying to go for a long walk at that temp. Though I would love to have been out and looking for pigs with you. Thanks for taking me along.
