anyone seeing rut activity

No rut activity yet

Hunting unit 6 and just like everyone else seen hunters all over the area. So far I ha be seen several does 400 yards away. Two pigs in an open field and no Nelgi so far. I did see a fallow deer (doe) walking across the road. Saw a bobcat also. Great place but it is a hard hunt. Been hunting this place since the 80's and it's a great place. These old bones can't take it, but God willing I will try. Good luck to everyone. Refuge personnel has been great.

I have known this man for a long time. He is as tough as they come. I hope that I am as strong as he is when I am his age.

Still playing cat and mouse had some cows bust me do to the wind and these bills were just across the fence, a north entry makes it hard to hunt when you have a north wind!

Man I feel your pain, I am having same kind of luck in Unit 2. Had a whole herd of cows and calves bust me before could get turned around.. I have a couple buddies in 8 that said it looked like orange army over there. I need more help corraling these things, think they are taking a lunch break and heading this way. Feel free to come over too always good to meet some tbhers!

waiting for the Neil guys

the entry road is not pot bellied per se...but is completely under construction. You can not park there while hunting though.

At the orientation for the 11/16 hunt they handed out paperwork for those that did not have any...other than their permit.

Thanks for the info that helps

Well, I had to finish up my hunt a day early but it was a blast! It was definitely one of the toughest hunts I've ever been on. I saw a lot of animals but couldn't ever get quite close enough. I spent most of my time way out in the northwest corner of the property. It's a long way back there but there are a lot of nilgai. If I were to have killed one back there it would have been a long haul out... I learned a lot as this was my first time hunting out there. Will definitely have a better idea of what to plan for in the future. I would say my biggest mistake was packing too heavy. Go Light!
