Wish Me and the Exomax Luck

Post by ko4nrbs »

Heading back out on the river Wednesday morning to hunt. I will hunt Wednesday till dark then spend the night in the boat so I can hunt Thursday morning. I'll leave late Thursday afternoon. I'll post my results or lack thereof.

Can't decide whether to use the Ground Blind or the Climbing Tree Stand.

It may sound nuts but I've had no luck at the lake so it's time for drastic measures.

Good luck!!!

As for the stand choice, I prefer being off the ground for larger broader field of view, but I also like ground blinds.

Well ended up not spending the night. Didn't think it was worth the effort. Sat in the climber for 6 hours and didn't see anything. Used my grunt calls and did some rattling to.

Climbed down the tree and walked around looking for any sign. Didn't even see a track much less any sign. They do frequent this area but are not around now.

Will be Gun Hunting this weekend on Camp Gruber near Tahlequah, OK.

The Oklahoma Wildlife biologist post this:
NORTHEAST REGION
By Mike Plunkett, senior biologist

CURRENT BUCK RUTTING ACTIVITY: Mature bucks are showing some pre-rut activity, with smaller bucks being seen a little more often chasing or searching for does.
HABITAT CONDITIONS: Conditions are great in the northeast due to abundant rainfall through summer. The acorn crop is very abundant nearly region-wide. Persimmons are also plentiful.
WHAT HUNTERS, LANDOWNERS ARE SAYING: They are seeing smaller bucks chasing or searching for does.
