Anyone w/expierience about the Jacksonville Florida area.
« on: May 09, 2005, 06:06:32 AM »
Anyone have an opinion on this area?

Here's the skinny.I don't have a college degree,I haven't taken a vacation in thirteen years,&,because of my work schedule,I haven't been able to really enjoy the hunting/fishing seasons in Mi.

I see Jacksonville as:
1) A place w/a major college-get that degree
2)Decent weather year round w/access to the ocean & the swamps.
3)The hunting seasons in both Florida & Georgia both seem longer & fuller than what I'm used to.ie.(I might get a deer/turkey)
4)With all the hunting stories both on THR & TFL I really want to hunt hogs.There doesn't appear to be a feral population in Mi.


Thoughts?Opinions?Better ideas?
BTW,I'm single w/no attatchments(wife/gf/kids)so I'm thinking that the move should be pretty straightforward.

After I get the sheepskin I'm planning on moving due West.

I haven't spent a lot of time in JAX but I hear it is the armpit of Florida.  Tampa Bay on the other hand seems much nicer.  Farther drive up to GA but what are the trade-offs.  Weather is better than JAX anyway.  There are colleges all over Florida and none of them are worth a damn so pick your poison.

Dont forget J man you can always contact me.  Considering that I lived in the area for almost three years!
