Goethe is a WMA which the forresty dept. oversees. It is 48,000 acres and the hunting dates are
arc. 22 days
M.L. 3 days
Gun 6 days in Nov
Dogs 7 days in Nov

It is a quota hunt that you have to put in in the summer with the FWC. It doesn't cost anything but a fl. hunting lic and management stamp.

But they wonder why they are run over with hogs.:rofl:

Been to Goethe several times, almost every single time while driving through it, hogs ran across the road ahead of me. So i would think it has lots of hogs.

GOT STEINHATCHEE SPRINGS IN FEBRUARY:clap:

Thats a good hunt. Me and a freind worked with the FWC and SRWMD for 3 years to get that place back open to the public. As part of the agreement we held a feral hog festival there in Cooks Hammock for the past 2 years with a "wild hog roundup". Have fun...let me know when you come down, would like to catch a few with ya.

Well I did not hunt monday or tuesday morning, tried to call in sick but Terry didn't believe me. so tuesday afternoon, turned out grit, lacy and brat and the bayed a sow in some hog tunnel haven. There is a advantage to being short. when we got there, they had caught her about 120 pounds and we just turned her loose. It was to thick and far to drag her out.

Some friends of out turned out and caught about a 80 pounder on the edge of the pound. I got there first and the dog caught her, so I went in and caught the gilt, and waited for my backup to get there and drag her out.

Wen. morning Terry turned out grit, brat and lacy. they were getting gone and I told him that I heard some hounds on my right, they were high pitched and was echoing thru the woods. We listened and went that direction and we got as close as we could and he said grit was there and we really got to listening and I heard our Brat pup and lacy baying every breath a real high pitch and it just echoed thru those woods. I wanted to film it but was told no time, so we went in and caught her and dragged her to the truck. she weight around 170 but by the time we got her to the truck I know she weighed 400 pounds.

Thursday morning dogs hunted but no pigs and I had to go home after that to watch Spaz deliver pups.
This was part of the crew we hunted with deer and hogs

Goethe is worth it, whether you deer hunt or hogs. Heard there was quite a few bucks killed too
