    I live 75 miles from Reelfoot Lake.

    I live 50 miles from the Ohio River.

    I also live within 80 miles of the Mississippi River.


    So, I have an endless amount of Water in my area of western Kentucky.
    I live 10 miles from the 160,000 acre Kentucky Lake, and the 57,000 acre Barkley Lake is within 25 miles of my house. I live 10 miles from 220,000 acres of Water.

    I live 3 blocks from a private 100-acre lake. It's not as varied as being on a big lake, but it holds some big fish. I've been invited to fish a couple other close-by, larger lakes and I'm sure we'll have fun...but nothing is as convenient as 2 minutes away. And the most other fishermen I've ever seen on the lake is 3 other boats.

    No, id like to live in the south.....not that much water right around me. Though, if I want to drive about 2-2 1/2 hours, I have some. A little more, and north, there is the great lakes.

    I love where I live, within a 30 minute drive there are around ten lakes, the big one being Lake Michigan. The closes one is five minutes away.

    Yes.

    I live in a neighborhood that has 6 ponds between 10 and 30 acres that are stocked (some overpopulated) with crappie and largemouth bass.

    I live 2 hours from the Gulf and 2 hours from the Atlantic, so I saltwater fish often.

    Whitetail bucks in the 150 class range are harvested often within 20 minutes of where I live.

    Plenty of good dove hunting.

    Duck hunting is sketchy, but you can't have everything.

    Turkey hunting is great here, but I don't do that.

    I love it.

    I walk out the back door to hunt deer, turkey, squirrel, etc

    Its 10 min drive to the Flint River, and 30 mins to the Ocmulgee river

    I live within an hour drive of 5 major lakes....Eufaula, Blackshear, Juliette, Tobosofkee, Sinclair

    I can drive 3 hours south and fish in the Gulf of Mexico or 3 1/2 hours east and fish in the Atlantic

    I have more water to fish than I have to fish.
