Retrieving Cameras

I took advantage of the nice weather this weekend to retrieve some cameras. I hope to bring most of my 40+ cameras home and let them dry out until April or May.

1st Paddle

This first area I had 5 cameras that I hadn’t visited since September, the batteries were dead in 2 but somehow the other 3 were still recording.

1st hike

I got to all the cameras there before dark so loaded the ‘yak back up and paddled to an area where I could collect 3 more cameras.

Florida Birds and Other Wildlife seen while Fishing on Lake Okeechobee, January 2022

I set some trailcams along the shore and left them until our next trip in March.
The view of 4 of the trailcams I set.

Hiking around in Markham Park

We took a day off from fishing on the windiest day of our trip.

Bass Fishing on Lake Okeechobee 2022

We accidentally chose the coldest 11 days this winter in Florida for our first of two trips to Lake Okeechobee, arriving on the January 21st and leaving on February 1st.

We managed to catch fish every day though we were often dressed like we were fishing for Winter Kings at home in Alaska than Largemouth Bass in Florida.
