Hi everybody,

I'm relatively new to the Gainesville, FL area and I was wondering if any of the other Florida natives knew of good herping spots. Anything is great, but snakes in particular is what I'm looking for. I've checked out many of the local state parks, and seen some cool things, but is there one sure fire location? As it is right now, it seems just more on chance than anything.

Advice as to when (time of the day, or season) would be appreciated too!

Things are sure different down here compared to my Midwestern home
