What is this?

Post by Iluv2hunt » Sun Oct 26, 2014 7:24 pm

Area I have circled. Is it a pond? Big flag pond? Ti-ti thicket? The pines are about 6-7 years old now so I can't see over them to see it, and can't tear thru the pines to get to it.

The topo overlay I use on Google Earth shows atleast a 5ft depression in that area. I am assuming the timber company did not replant that low spot after the initial clear cut and just let nature take over.

Yeah I guess it is just a nasty ole bog with ti-ti's and "wait a minute" vines. There are no visible trees that you can see coming out of it, so It has to be low stuff. I bet every old animal for miles around lives inside that mess. We get a couple freezes I may venture out there

Well, I finally walked in to this area this morning. Just as I thought, it is a very nasty ti-ti thicket and cypress bog. Very wet at the moment. It has been there many years (according to google map history) and there are hog tunnels going into this mess that you can drive a volkswagon thru. Also quite a few deer tracks heading into it...At least I know. I measured it using the area calculator and its right at 4 acres

That pine in the distance is the place to sit and watch. It this area that's where that deer and the pig play.

Can you get a ground blind setup in there?
