I got a mulie spike, spotted and stalked to 42yds,with a group of 4 other mulies. Saw a ton of deer but the only good bucks we've seen we're at night while driving. I'm on top of a canyon glassing now, will post pics when I get back. Finally sealed the deal on public land mule deer... Now to find big daddy. I'll post pics soon

Did you see many whitetail or just mule deer?

This time of year it is hot or cool day to day. Also can be very windy day to day. The Lake has risen 4' or so in the past 3-4 week so no exposed shore line, only inundated vegetation. Mulies in the canyons and Whitetails on the river bottom with some overlap. If you want to hunt north of McBride boating in from Harbor bay would be a good option. Martins and Evans Canyon's are across from Harbor Bay's RR boat ramp. Those 2 canyons have no roads or trails that I am aware of so it will be extremely thick in there. The Mullinaw crossing is probably closed off due to the river running pretty good. Also Ute Lake in New Mexico is spilling over and they planning on a water release which will add a lot of volume to the already running river. Beware of Rattle snakes as well. I had a run in with a diamond back rattler as big around as my forearm out there. Turkey Creek trail on the east side of the lake has been flooded and is now unusable from Harbor bay area south.

Looks like they are about to open up Blue West boat Ramp!
The lake usually trends upward late summer / fall. The water release from Ute should keep it rising. I read an article that stated the spill way at Ute has so much volume that a lot of the water coming off the spillway flooded outside of the river channel. They were going to waiting until that settled down then open the gates slightly to capture as much water as possible inside of the river channel. It take 4 days to reach Lake Meredith from Ute, about 106 miles or so.
