What are you hunting/fishing?

PapaSop me and my son took 4 bucks total. We have 10 doe tags We will not be using. Plus the week of Christmas we could take 4 more does that don’t count against our bag limit. I think it’s ridiculous.

I believe muzzle loader is on now with a four day antlerless to follow. We’re done.

Ridley Acres Drove through Wisc. a few years ago and couldn’t believe the number of deer laying along the interstate.

Used up my buck tag on this . Was limping around with an arrow wound from at least a week ago. Not as big as I would like but needed to be done. I will still be some nice meatRON PARRISH good on you to take one out under those circumstances. I did that last year. He had been shot in the lower leg either earlier in the day or the day before.

I Youse to drive my semi threw west Virginia and see and watch the deer eating the grass on the side of the road because of the road salt in the soil it was the easy access to salt for them

Here is why the number of deer are down in north Wi. My son took this pic on sun of opening weekend . I cant even tell you how many hours I have sat between bow, gun and now muzzle loader to see only 5 deer . I’m sitting in the stand right now with the smoke pole hoping the fresh snow and below zero temps get them moving. -

I love the snow to make them easier to see and track, but hate the long waits in the cold. Good luck.

GWG8541 thanks. Smoke pole season ends tomorrow so I took the night off of work tonight. When my son started hunting at age 10, I build a heated stand . Makes it alot easier sitting then the old days when i would sit in a foxhole with a wool blanket . I must be getting old…or smarter

kyle Nothing wrong with being comfortable when you hunt.

kyle I hear ya, I don’t sit unless it’s in my permanent shack or a pop up with heat. It’s a difference of getting cold in 3 hours and leaving or sitting sun up to sun down. A lot of people say that’s not hunting but in the end when I can sit out there from sun up to sun down not having to move or go get lunch I’m spending more hours in the woods compared to other folks. To each their own style of hunting. I have seen and shot way more deer with this method. I am looking at buying two more permanents this year for my other property. Here is the one I built a few years back. I just blacked out the inside and window framing is blacked out now too since this pic.

September-middle November bow hunting I will sit in a treestand -

We just sat outside all day in some brush. The last day was a bit cold at 15 degrees with 20 mph wind but it was doable. Was able to stay out till dark.

I’ve seen 3 wolves in the BWCA in northern MN.

ND Mike yes they are. I live and hunt about 3 miles from the boarder. Around my hunting property there are 3 different packs. Years ago, we knew some were around, but now they are seen all the time.Many pets have been taking right out of peoples yards. We have a problem

kyle yes you do! I think wolves need to be put back on the hunting seasons.

Yep. I hear that. I guess when I referred to all the extra tags and I seen 5 deer all season. Kinda weird. We hunt the central farmland zone. More coyotes around this area. -
ND Mike Yeah states will regret reintroducing wolves without a plan on how to control it quick enough. In Idaho their wildlife management shoots them out of helicopters, even though you can get tags to hunt them. They are super smart animals.
