Cool video! Fellow spring lovers and we liked the video! I’ve never seen the red carnivorous plant you showed, I will be keeping my eye out now! Thanks for uploading.
1# rule is survival. If you aren't planning to stay the night remote, you aren't planning for an event that would FORCE YOU TO DO SO! Also, you could have found your our ballast in the form of rocks.
Very nice video. I have been wanting to go there, but I haven’t made the time to do so. I found going by kayak is a lot more enjoyable for me even if it takes longer. Keep up the good work.
Thank you! I definitely prefer traveling by boat when I can. I do think this particular spring is tough to get to by kayak - not saying it's impossible though, just lots of downed limbs in the run.
@@josephrickettsphoto I went the first time launching around 2:00am at a landing. I went early because we had some bioluminescent in the water. I was there trying to get those and the Milky Way. After I couldn’t get what I was wanting I decided to paddle to the spring. Just before daylight, I noticed the water was colder and I finally notice clear puffs of water. There was a lot of pull overs, but it wasn’t too bad. Anyway, it’s a nice kayak but getting to where the spring starts is a long stretch to get to. I’m glad you got to go. It is a great place for gar and snapper in the winter. FYI, the spring that runs parallel to it is a beautiful paddle also.
@@Caston1705 Great to hear! And I’ve been hoping to make it up to the nearby spring sometime in the next year. It is definitely high on the adventure list!
As a general rule I don't give out locations to these areas unless they have adequate infrastructure to support sudden influx of visitors. This is to ensure that my videos/photos don't have a detrimental effect on theses sensitive ecosystems. I do recommend checking out floridapringsinstitute.org - they have a map of springs around the state of FL as well as tips for minimizing your impact when visiting. Thanks for understanding and I hope you get to visit one of the springs in FL! If you've never been, Silver Springs state park is a great place to start!
It’s in Florida. I don’t give out specific details as the spring is ecologically sensitive and doesn’t have the infrastructure to handle large numbers of visitors. The Florida Springs Institute has lots of info on their website if you are looking for springs to visit. Thanks for understanding 🤙🏼
@@josephrickettsphoto Good for you bro! Wish more people were like this as social media has absolutely destroyed the springs. Far worse than nitrogen and it's not even close.

@@OutoftheOfficeCreations Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
Well done!
Thank ya!
Man your underwater videos are beautiful
@@trackaholic Hey thank you so much! Got some exciting stuff planned for the rest of the year :)
Cool video brother. Lot of work went into making it. That spring is not far from my house. I can certainly appreciate the discretion.
Well done 👍🏻
Thank you so much! That's a beautiful part of the state for sure - I hope it stays that way forever
you found carnivorous plants in the swamp..I come across sundews and other carnivorous plants in my swamp hikes!
That's awesome! Always a good day when I see a carnivorous plant

@@ericsbraun Certainly can’t hurt to be ready for anything! For better or worse, Florida doesn’t have a lot of rocks
I remember this spring but not the name, I am going to find it and come back to post the name for everybody to see despite the poster gatekeeping
This is either part of the Leon sinks group or somewhere near Orlando

I think I'll never subscribe to your channel because of your secret spring. Stupid to not share.

@@josephrickettsphotoBelieve it or not I know more about Sprinhs in Florida than you do probably. Anyways keep hiding.
