Hey fell florida hunters, I just got into town today , was curious how the weather has been down here? Is it worth me taking a drive around the Sarasota / Venice are to hunt? I heard rain tonight and tommorow morning :-) but so far nothing this evening. Has anyone had any success yet in this area recently ? Any help would be most appreciative. I'm visiting some family friends so I don't want to make a trip wondering for nothing. Thanks for any help guys/gals
Peace

it's been very dry on the west coast, i don't believe sarasota/venice has had much rain but others here would know better than I. The recent rains have been further inland and also in the north, I wouldn't be surprised if Gainesville or Tallahassee hunters had met with some success recently. The forecasts i've seen show a possibility for rain this weekend, and a good chance for it in the middle of next week, so if you're here and the rains come, head on out by all means.
sorry I couldn't be more helpful, but I haven't been out lately as we're on the cusp of the season but not quite there yet. You can feel a good day to pick when you walk outside in the morning and the air is heavy, sticks to you.... Keep checking out the forum while you're down here, i think most of us in FL are primed and ready to go, so I'm sure the posts will pop up as soon as the shrooms do.

Thanks for both your imput, I'm in town until next Wednesday so I'm going to keep my fingers crossed :-) I heard it hasn't rained down in this area in a while. So hopefully I'll see some posts within the week. Anyone else feel free to put your imput. Thanks! Peace

It should only be isolated storms and most likely not enough to spark any kind of worthwhile growth.
But, theres always hope!

you need something like 50 posts before you get access to the Gathering forum.

Okay! So it's been raining over my field since monday evening, starting with a large thunderstorm, then showers all day today. Tomorrow it calls for hot and clear. My field is a good 40 minute drive, but I'm thinking tomorrow evening will be prime hunting, right? East central Florida here, (west of Vero) Anyone else going out tomorrow or the next day?? What should I expect?

Well, I answered my own question....NOPE.
Spent two hours in a feild up to my knees in cow poop, and nothing. I guess the humidity hasn't been very favorable. So if you're thinkig of searching east central florida, don't bother!!! better luck next time
