I don't have the patients to fish.

I like hiking in with a frying pan, some butter, my tenkara pole and a few flies...

That's how I was as a kid, I'd last about a half hour, then done. Sometime in my late teens I really got the bug. But am now back to...meh, I'd rather just hike/walk.

I need to look at a map of the Palmetto Trail. It runs by Santee Cooper and might have great hiking and fishing opportunities. I've only walked about a mile of it between the two lakes by the bridge. I just don't know how well I'd sleep with all the gators down there. I'm not used to them, none here in the mountains. And I'd rather sleep with the Bears than gators.......

Being a yankee boy swamp rat up my way, I have zero experience with gator country...I like hiking, not wading. I'd never make it down there, to damn hot and humid too.

I can handle the hot and humid, but I will pass on the wading with gators.

Hiking with gators is not as bad as it sounds. It's the damn moccasins.

The only snake I know that will come after you. They feel the vibration of the water on the bank and they'll just drop right in and head right for you.

Seen plenty of snakes and they don't bother me, but never seen a moccasin in NJ, spoke with a fella that says they are down in the pine barrens, I understand they are very aggressive....no thank you on them too.
