Go to the Days Inn "Cheifland" on Saturday morning then follow the pack. Most guys go to the fanning springs ramp. From there its about a 25 mile boat ride each way to end up at the Santa Fe split where everyone beaches and hangs out.

Boat ramp map link on first page . If you don't want to make the long ride Gornto Springs ramp is very close to the split .

It's rising slowly and about 18 " higher than November which had a nice level . Should be fine just watch for any submerged trees which are usually marked by locals with jugs etc .

Money fixes everything other then health and you are making bunch of it right now. Don't pay any attention to us poor guys back home or it will distract the mission you set out for.
