Matt sometimes I forget how good you are. Much appreciation for your talents

Water storage is a must, look at California 2025. Yes, we have the technology that doesn't destroy nature.

I agree that this is very sad. But as Floridians, why didn’t someone do something about this. I saw a clip of President Johnson. And I don’t know if it was mentioned to infir the federal government had something to do with it. But why complain, why not do something about it. Just because man or women have an idea doesn’t mean it’s a good idea. Crying and complaining doesn’t do anything. United people can change things, not government overreach.

My kin mcrae had steamboat Hiawatha it ran for hart line up st John's and ocklawaha rivers until I think 28

The Rivers will return to Natural flow. President Trump's Executive Orders will make sure across Republic of America's 55 States. Watch what happens after Jan 20 2025. Gonna happen fast. God has ordained it to be.

Dams are being knocked down all over the country and world this one's got to go and this is an easy one inexpensive and nature will come back so quickly it will blow your mind

I am bass fisherman and I fish for striped bass every chance I get in the Ochlocknee River. This river historically had a strong spawning run of stripers . Those days are gone because of a Dam. Lets bring back those good ole days.

It’s fine.

How can i find the song

Synonym for construction, destruction

Government is the Anti-Christ!

As 60 plus year native Florida the problem you have now is a whole new eco system. I fished the river before the damage and can tell you the fishing is much better. The state needs to manage it for the people. What has destroyed the Forrest is all these atv trails they are ugly . The money they will make for this area, only if managed right. The SWMD is what ruining this river. Leave it alone and manage it correctly

This is so elegantly put together and scored! Bravo! as an artist from Miami who paints a Calusa mask on his face and makes songs of plant medicine and animal folklore I truly and deeply appreciate this! we must work together to save the miracle of Florida, the evil rides on the ignorance of the masses, Thank you so much for this! if your curios to check out my wife and I's art here's a most recent piece of the panther spirit! ruclips.net/video/cTi5y9IhSs8/видео.htmlsi=-BskvBJ-3NsXWEk4 CC is English! Godspeed!

I want to ask have ya ever caught an alligator

Awesome piece!

Ummm...this is all such beauty...the art work the vid. The music and vibe.....dude.... Bring us more of this pure Floridian Inspiration

Democrats and they're bright ideas

That canal would have been great

👀

Leave it to man to mess everything up. This is so sad to see. Only Fools think there is nothing wrong with any of this. We saw them earlier in this video, the politicians, the ACOE, etc. The whole gaggle of the greedy. Sad!

Does anyone have any suggestions or maps that will show me where ancient or pre existing canals, and natural canal systems before the U.S. started re-arranging everything. I am looking to explore the canals that existed before but am having a hard time finding reliable mappings of them. And they can be dried up, that's actually preferable for me. They can also be under water. If anyone has any direction to point me or any advice, please let me know. I am figuring I may have to go into each county records and see when the first canals were being made, then try to figure out what was there and what existing systems they were using. Thank you to anyone whom helps in advance! :)

Lived there 11 yrs really enjoyed it with my first wife these were the best yrs of my life luv this little town peacefully fryers chicken the heart of melrose not to far from keystone heights very nice luv it there and the lake gorgeous lots of special memories there

Great job explaining this area. I am in Daytona. Florida is a beautiful natural playground. I love it here and hope people protect it.

I kind of think I saw that white sign on the side of the road

Ignorance on the states part for it to still be there. Isnt rodman basically drained dry now

......FREE THE OCKLAWAHA RIVER....TEAR DOWN THE DAMN DAM....

Also if you removed that damn. Tens of thousands of homes and other areas that have adapted to the new ecosystem would devistate the entire north central part of florida. I mean I think we should but is anyone thinking about the volume of water that's going to flood everything down the ocklawaha.

Well, I don't mind breaking some of these peoples pride of what they think they know. But that big machine got disassembled and torn down for a FACT! There was a hydraulic company out of Leesburg that helped with the dismantling. Ashamed some of these people are right about some of the stories but my grandfather was there first hand and watched it get torn apart out of eureka.

I,too, grew up in a Florida landscape that was distorted by the needless "work" ,by the US Corp Of Engineers. I grew up on Lake Gwynn, which is no more as it used to be. They killed the lake, and are now attempting to resuscitate it.

The website link no longer works what happened?

So much goodness 🙏🫶

👏💛

Nice and relaxing video. Beautiful also

As a boy of 6 or 7 I fished on the river with my grandfather who was born in 1900 and grew up in the scrub. We would rent a wooden flat bottom skiff and fish. We often pulled the boat over logs to get into some of the springs. I could see the fish swim over and take my bait!

It’s true. Why do they do this? You are right. It doesn’t matter. They do not care. Controlling and managing everything. They should’ve left things alone long, long, long time ago. Its an environmental massacre.😡💀

Grew up in Lakeland we had lakes and pit's but the springs are magical. Thanks

Whenever I see video titles like this I’m hoping it is about the history of the Miami River but to my disappointment it’s usually not. Did you know that the Miami River once had rapids? Why do we always have to jack up natural beauty like this? 9 times out of 10 it’s usually to serve large corporate interests. Sad.

I lived in Ocala right next to one of the trailheads to the Cross Florida Greenway, and I used to ride those mountain bike trails, sometimes daily. I considered it a good day when I had spent 3 hours riding the trails.

Just to clarify you can go through from the St. John’s into Rodman and the ockalawaha through Buckman lock. Manatees also use this lock to go to the springs

Always core of stupid engineers

I miss Whitey.

The canal also cut the Florida aquifer…..

old timers fucked the land for profit. now giant corperations are fucking the land for profit.

Barry LBJ was definitely one of the very worst president we ever had, only to be surpassed by Barack Hussein Obama and his brain dead puppet Joe. I should put a footnote that our 15th president and first homosexual president was pretty bad himself,

Free flowing straight to the ocean where it's made useless With all the ppl coming here we need fresh water things are not as simple as they seem

May all responsible parties burn in hell for eternity.

Wonderful work and revealing story of Floridas destruction, waterway by waterway.

what was the purpose of building the dam?

Please remember this, the new waterway has created a new ecosystem and by removing it this system will die. I hate to dam up rivers but i also believe in leaving them alone also after the damage has been done.

Your about 35 years you g shole
