Actually Shawn it is a lot like Swamp People down here. I live in southern Louisiana about 30 miles north of New Orleans. I've grown up with hunters and fishermen all my life. My family is mostly of Cajun descent so the older folks all speak French and have the same accents that you hear from Troy and his crew (Swamp People). As kids, we were taught to hunt rabbit, boar, duck, squirrel, turkey, deer and frogs. Some of my friends also hunted gator when they were older. We fish for an abundance of sea food (fresh and salt water) catfish, bass, specks and whites (trout), red fish and flounder, crabs, oysters, turtles and crawfish. We'll eat anything that moves, and it's good too. I absolutely love this state! I've been all over the southern half of the US from California to Virginia but my heart is here and here I'll stay. It's the most unique place in the US, but for hunting and fishing it's unbelievable! They don't call us the 'Sportsman's Paradise' for nothing!
P.S.: Jerky and tenderloin are great, but if you take some of that venison and mix it with some pork and seasoning the sausage will blow the top of your head off! If you can't grind your own a local butcher will do it for you.... I'm starving.
