This is why I don’t kayak fish at night in Florida... 

Whole Lotta Rosie

 

Too bad the FL bounty is by the head and not  by the lb...

Most southern Florida deer are on the small side.

I caught a big Burmese python a couple years ago. I can tell you from experience that these snakes are much faster and stronger than they appear. They are masters at hiding, so you always have to look where you walk, but that is what you should be doing anyways while fishing in South Florida, since we have alligators, water moccasins, and other potentially dangerous wildlife. Fortunately the only Burmese python I have seen in the wild is the one I caught.
