I'm baaaaack...

It has been about 4 years since I have posted on these boards, and I just wanted to say that I am getting ready to hit the water holes and beaches with a vengeance...

We left Florida back in '07 and moved back to Illinois (change in latitude=change in attitude). Unfortunately, I didn't get to do much hunting while up here due to work, family commitments, etc. On top of that, the water hunting close by was pretty dismal and nothing like hunting in the Sunshine state. And to make matters worse, I had 2 of my 3 machines stolen (thank GOD that the Excal wasn't one of them)...

Well, we are moving back to Florida in a couple of months, and I am ready to put the Excal thru it's paces... I'm just glad that these boards are still here, and that I have a forum to come back to...

Around the central part (Ocala), and the coastal beaches for the most part...
