VERY good point about the gators. I will likely be on disney grounds
withing a few hundred feet of the hotel most of the time, but I will still keep my eyes open. The more my wife and I talk about the trip, the less it seems like she wants me to fish. I'm pretty sure she'll let me get away for at least one decent outing anyway. Rich P "Bass_Mr." wrote in message ... My only advice for walking around fishing ponds at night in Florida is be very careful. Gators are prevalent as are the "no-shoulders". I just want you to make it back home safely. ![]() I had the not so wonderful experience of catching a 4 ft. gator on a Rapala in broad daylight and that was plenty enough excitement for me. They will eat you................... "Rich P" wrote in message . .. Wait a minute, is this one of those "let's go get us a tree hugger" questions? Whatever your politics, it makes sense to pay attention to global environmental changes and consider the impact we may be having on this earth. As a fisherman, I find myself even more concerned with the ecology. Especially the state of the waters around me. I assume most other fishermen feel the same way about the waters we fish and sometimes eat from, but I could be wrong. I have no idea how much the oceans are going to rise but I'm pretty sure I agree with 99% of the scientists on this planet. The trend is towards a warming, just look at pictures of the glaciers over the past 30 years. Look at Kilimanjaro and how it's glacier is disappearing. It's not a myth folks. Now, if anyone has some suggestions about my Florida trip I would be thankful. If not, I fly by the seat of my pants as usual and hope to stumble on a gem or two.

some MONSTER bass.The other critters I mentioned are also there in abundance. "Rich P" wrote in message . .. VERY good point about the gators.
