I havnt had time to read through all the posts, but are dogs allowed?
Went out last night with some friends to try and stir some big black drum, the current and heavy weed flow made it impossible.
So we decided to go ahead and camp on a near by island so we could get...
I am thinking of joining htis hang, got some new DIY equipment I need to try out and some PDO time to burn from work before the end of the year.
Last summer I came down with the flu while out island camping. A fever in near 100 deg temps not fun. packed it all up and paddled in. Out sick from work for about a week. 1st time I ever had the flu.
We usually tie ours off to the suspension and give them a ground mat to sleep on. We try to keep the lead short enough to keep them from getting tangled up on any line. If the gf has her way I will...
I use a few different sizes(weights) 8lb and 40lb of wire fishing leader... just happened to be what I had around, and has been working great for about 2 years now. the 8lb for the lash it/ zing it,...
What are these valleys and hills you speak of?
We are interested as well. A little to far out to say for sure, but is sounds fun.
So I have been bitten by the DIY bug. This is the 1st of many projects.
Borrowed the SM from the parents, ordered some equipment from DIYgear.
Here it is I call it the black mamba.

I really enjoy camping on the spoil islands.....
I have tent camped in the everglades(Prior to my swinging days), but I believe they will not frown upon the idea of a hammock... although most of the...
We are in, pretty much any where is fine. Sadly life got super busy right after the 1st hang and I don't think we have had the chance to hang anywhere other than our yard since then. I do hope it is...
So hows it shaping up? life got real busy for me and is just now starting to relax a little. I don't think I have seen my hammock gear since the 1st annual hang. The GF and I were thinking pf doing a...
we might be able to make it.
we have done plenty of camping in the general area and have seen most of the islands first hand.
good hammock sites can be found, but you may want to bring the small...
I am out in a few minutes too.
about an hour and ahalf away depending on weather related traffic.
if that falls through we can grab a good amount of wood.

we are excited, just hoping I can actually get out of work early, or atleast on time.
only about an hour and a half from the office here in LK Mary.

Thanks Opie
I have seen pics of hammocks hanging from the chickees and that is actually one of the trips that me and a few friends have on the drawing boards.
It is like any other structure that is out in the...
We will have cash donations for the event when we arrive Fri.
Dang this snuck up quick.
I didn't realize it would be a full moon/ near full for the weekend.
might have to bring the yaks after all.
I wonder how a full moon paddle adds up to a bio luminescence paddle....which is super...
Is anyone planning ondoing some geocaching while there?
I will have my gps and would like to do some.
Not sure that we are bringing out our yaks yet.
the site seemed to be having issues yesterday as well.
eventually I was able to add an item to the cart and check out.
took a while though, with the disco it was worth a little bit of annoyance.

I think I found it, but if I can and do use it, won't be until next week....
Might need a good tarp for the FL hang especially since the temps have been so low and the winds sooooo high.
I think the rule was originally drafted because of all the RV campers tossing up clothes lines and the ole mesh hammocks with no regard for the trees.
I myself have been asked every time to remove...
I am intersted, me and the GF are always looking for new yak spots.
on a plus side i can fish the left coast which i never seem to get a chance to do.
Oh man this hang is coming up quick! cant...

Suggestions welcomed.
Car camping moderate hiking and or kayaking, we are game for petty...
My GF says I have a problem. I think she even used the word obsession :)
Well maybe I do.
Is it really a problem if you are not trying to stop?
Between this, fishing and kayaking I dont have much...
My GF has them and she loves them.
I dont have any pics.
We mostly kayak camp, and car camp so weight isnt an issue for us.
I believe they produce just enough light for her to study by.
So far...
I am on the BETA for IE9 and am nothaving an issue.
Even on the corporate network at work.
My Ipod also has no issue.
I use aerospace 303 protectant on all my fishing gear, including the kayak.
So far it has been awesome (about a year now).
I am sure it will be fine on a tarp even though I have never tried....
Has anyone recieved their order as of yet?
I have not even gotten a shipping confirmation.
A friend had a shipping confirmation a few days after the order and still has not recieved it.
I guess...
I was trying to pull the trigger but paypal crapped out.
I have never had any luck with using that system.
Ha there we go I think I finally got it to work.
Here is a pic I found online to give abetter idea.

ONF is the only place I have seen bears in the wild.
I think me and the GF are planning on attending this event.
I couldnt do the test hang up there cause I was participating in a charity fishing...
Yeah thanks for the heads up.
I grabbed a few canteens, and a few bottles.
Well besides the standard whoopie suspension and ridge line on mine, I had to tweek my girls a little bit.
She really likes using the slap straps for non camping hangs.
So my solution was to...
Great, I am in the market for a UQ and I like the features of this, as you can see, I am from florida so the winters are pretty mild.
I think last year we had 2 camping days to where it dropped to...
I second that.
Need to plan possible time off from work.
Are any of the places of concideration pet friendly?
what it the temp rating on MMG Shamu IX Underquilt?
The GF and I are game to join.
Most of our camping is done on the spoil islands in central florida (titusville area).
Canaveral national seashore has some great island campsites and safe parking...
yeah it is an OK Prowler Trident 15....
Love it so far. Sold my 2 OK Scrambler XT's, some fishing and jeeping gear to get it.
I have had it for a couple weeks now and have upgraded to the rod pod...
my gf is a native too, myself I have been down here since I was 4. so that make about 30 years now.
Can't imagine living anywhere else, unless it is an island.
We recently went to england for a...
