I say 700 a day is WAAAAAAY too expensive.
You're a cheap SOB haz. Just a flats guide will run you $375 per half day. I'm offering that PLUS 16 foot reptiles in three feet of water in a mosquitoe and alligator infested sawgrass swamp with nothing but a machete (because Crist is a pussy who won't let us use guns in the Glades) between you and certain death. PLUS you get to paddle, portage and drag your canoe a mile or two into the swamp to get there. I should charge twice as much for "Captain Quaker's Everglades Blood Bath". Hell I bet the Nuge would pay three times that amount and he wouldn't even expect me to make lunch. HTFU Haz. FQ13
I can get a 200 lb pig, cleaned and quartered for 150.
Yeah, but can you make boots out of it?FQ13
Nope, here in America we make footballs
I've been holding my fire on this one boys just because I 've been too amused. But as unemployment drags on, and my retired father who has a place deep in the glades, travels more often, I'm thinking of a business(only half in jest). Captain Quakers Everglades Safari! Snook and Tarpon in the morning, a run into Naples or just a siesta in the afternoon (lunch provided) then Python hunting in the sawgrass in the late afternoon till after dark, machete, canoe and trained python dog provided. Day two, fishing in the afternoon, Iguana hunting by golf cart in the morning (Golf included). We take in a 9am tee time, with clubs and air rifles, play through a lovely course, pausing to snipe, and then return in time for lunch and fishing. $700 a day. What say you?FQ13
