Flint Creek got a couple so does limestone. Those are some good pics.

Yeah the more I hear the less I like the idea of going this time of year. My only problem with scouting it in sept is my wife is due in sept with twins. So I planned on scouting it before them If your wife is due with twins you won't be hunting much this season. Our son was born September of last year. It's hard to find the time or energy to hunt the first couple of months. Good luck.

dang...big ole gators there! i never would have thought it was warm enough to support gators here seems too cool. to me. Crocs would die. They drown when the water temp drops. Alligators can survive in waters with ice in it. They are lethargic but alive. I've known duck hunters running into them at Swan creek during duck season.

I see this is an old thread, but I hunt wheeler a lot and have killed deer out there and seen many. two pieces of advice. 1. If you get there without a boat, hip waders or on two legs, don't hunt it cause every other guy has already been there. and two hunt mid day. Use the other hunters coming out for lunch to drive deer toward you. I have a bike that i ride on the roads that close during season to get miles deeper than I would walk with a climber on my back. Good luck.
I believe that this is a practical world and that I can count only on what I earn. Therefore I believe in work, hard work. -George Petrie (1945)

Dang lake is so low it was stump city getting out there a few weeks back. Bent my prop up and everything. Gonna have to take a push pole next time I recon. Wheeler is covered up with cameras, everywhere I go I find them. I hate getting caught by the cell cameras! Trail cameras are illegal on Wheeler, so feel free to take them down. I've thought about doing it before, but I can't bring myself to steal. I've found bear scat in the northwest part of Wheeler. I've also seen coy wolves that are over 70lbs out there, and they are not afraid of people. They really need to open up a coyote season, and gators too.
