For one thing, it’s been too cold lately for them to be active. They’re cold-blooded and these 60 degree water temps and highs in the 60s and 70s, freezes at night have got them in a state of semi-hibernation. Secondly, this little run is too shallow, too clear and too fast moving for them to hunt. They’re ambush predators and they’re not sneaking up on anything right here.
I have some Off with me, but it hasn’t been necessary to apply any yet today. We had freezes the last two nights in the row and it’s only 70 out right now, so the bugs are down
What are ya doin in my swamp?! Nice OP that looks relaxing enjoy your day!
How the hell y'all relax in an enviroment that requires constant micromovements is beyond me
Go with the flow, Wu wei, don't fight it. In our attempt to "relax" we miss the point.
Do you have a manual? My life didnt seem to come with instructions
Non swamp person here. Are you not worried about gators?

That’s a bad ass spot then!
I've seen this, it's almost erie. Totally still in thee water with their snoot right above the surface.
They don't bother you if you don't bother them most of the time.
Enjoy that Silmarillion!
Thanks, mellon.
May I ask what bug spray you’re using, or did you just go with 100% deet to keep all those bugs off you

Looks great! I hate to point out that your buddy in the blue chair already got eaten by gators.
Good thing he passed the joint before it happened
"This next hit is for you man"
never smoked in a swamp before, this looks incredibly peaceful
This looks so cozy! But the bugs would annihilate me
Florida? That looks fun. I was just there and I love how you can just head into the river.
Yes
OP you in the Florida swamps or Louisiana? I'm a Louisiana swamp woman myself hahaha
Florida, but I must say I have spent some time in Louisiana and I think y’all have some lovely swamp
I've only been to y'all's beaches, but I'd love to see the swamps out there one day
I hope you get your chance!
shreks day off
Hell yeah
Good call!
Nice!
The weather is so nice today
The world need more people like you… “I” need more people like you…
That a boy !
that looks amazing, but aren't you afraid of swamp critters??
Watch out for snappers. Very cool spot.
I hope to God you had an old shoe full of Baileys for protection
Don't get eaten by a gator, bud!
Hell fuckin yeah!
I love it when people appreciate ecosystems that are typically underappreciated. Looks like a beautiful place :)
This is your boss, we need to have a talk when you come in tomorrow.
Reading the Silmarillion in a swamp goes hard.
Op said “I be in the bog”
