Now that seems to be, but stands to reason.... There's a creek way way down the St. John's River from where it empties into the ocean at Mayport. I think it is called Black Creek. Pretty place, winding creek, and absolutely full of gators. Full of bass and other fresh water fish. Unfortunately, full of jetskiers, too, at least when we lived in the area. There were those who wished a few of the jetskiers would fall into the water in the creek and provide the gators with lunch. I don't recall reading that it ever happened, though. |
