Help identify please!

I found this one hunting in a foresty by where I live (central Florida) it was under a pine tree. I think it is a Amanita muscaria. And do you think its edible and perhaps will give a trip.? (its a bit old from the looks of it) And since my camera sucks here are details : net like gills, easly picked of "warts" was redish when found, sweating alot, and has no smell. It looked like the picture in the uper right of this link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amanita_muscaria. please help!
I can take more pics if needed.

That isn't an amanita muscuria. They do grow down south but only during the fall and sometimes spring I think.

really now..... maybe thats why i never see them, i only look for shrooms in the summer when its nice n sloppy. do u think they grow as far south as florida? i can see maybe the carolinas but i would think florida is way too hot for em.

Your description of "net like gills" and "bleeding blue" suggest that you have a bolete.
To ID boletes we need to see the stem in as much detail as possible, and know what color the spore print (on white paper) is, to get started.
Happy mushrooming!

Are you sure about that? Not about this mushroom not being an Amanita muscaria, but that they only grow in the south during fall and sometimes spring. I found several A. muscarias under a pine tree only a couple weeks ago, and a friend of mine found a large one just a few days ago.

Yes, Amanitas dont grow in [long established] cow fields. Wheres the stem on your mushroom? looks like a puffball.
