ITA! I’m gonna ask hubby when he gets home, but it sure sounds like that would be illegal? Unless of course they had proper hunting licenses and all. I guess I need to do some research.Times are tough and folks do what they gotta do to eat but this kind of huntin is new to an ol country gal like me. No mention of a firearm yet there had to be one if they expected to get a deer or hog. Getting out of the boat to walk with river bottom without a weapon when that's what you came for doesn't make much sense now, does it? There is MUCH more to this story than what we've been told so far, I do believe. I'm afraid much of it bodes no good outcome for our missing lady.
My thoughts exactly! All I could think was - she's going wading in those waters, she's likely to run into a mean cottonmouth snake! I didn't even think about gators....RSBM... I would assume that all the critters one encounters in other river areas of MS would be the same on this river, regardless that it's winter, so not reporting her missing until 10pm is real shady. Snakes, spiders, possible alligators. Not to mention it's in the 30's right now! I would NEVER. *Shiver.*

Are there really alligators that far north in Mississippi? This is probably less than 50 miles from the Tennessee border.I grew up in MS with a brother, dad, and friends who hunt, and I have never heard of hunting like this from a boat. I suppose it's doable, but I have lots of questions about this one.
Unfortunately, I've never been on the Tallahatchie to better describe what it's like.

Thanks @SimplyCass for the date typo notification! One of these days, I'm gonna get it all correct when I start a thread. I'm obviously not in this new year yet.![]()
From the very first article:
Stacks had a coat, which searchers found apparently discarded, but probably was not dressed warmly enough for the weather the past two nights.
The word discarded doesn't sit right with me.
No, there isn't. Her mother has been very vocal as well.There's not a lot of love for the BF on FB. Winky meters are on overdrive.
I can't see any logical reason to get out of a boat into the water to "walk back the bottoms" except to escape. That's if she was ever in the boat (alive) to begin with.
Clearly I didn't mean Winky meters! Autocorrect won't let me say HINKYNo, there isn't. Her mother has been very vocal as well.
Could have been someone else walking in that area. There are many comments concerning her boots that can not yet be discussed on this thread.Yeah. But what about the "footprints"? I think they could have belonged to anyone (or anything), or maybe they were mistaken to be footprints. (IMO)
LOL, it's ok to WINK when there's HINK!Clearly I didn't mean Winky meters! Autocorrect won't let me say HINKY
