I had a pretty productive day scouting today in I1, found some areas with lots of potential for some fall moose. I also checked out a couple areas with the canoe for potential hunting areas 1 looked better then the other and I will be checking it out again when the season grows closer. In a couple weeks I will be heading north to do some scouting in C1 and D1. Have a game plan for those units and have marked several locations on my GPS from last year and will use those areas as a starting point, cant wait to get up there and poke around.
Also want to touch on the deer population for a minute. The last few winters have been very hard on the deer herd here in NH, but, the last several weeks I have seen lots of deer and lots of fawns. This is a very good sign, considering the amount of snow we had last year alone! I have seen several nice bucks already this year and have several nice bucks on camera as well.

ReplyDeleteHey that's encouraging Chet! Lots of tracks, droppings?

Well there was some droppings and tracks but I look for rut activity from the past fall, rubs, urine pits or wallows, browse that have been snipped off last fall etc... that tells me more then droppings and also tells me if an area is used during that time! The feed has to be correct also. Thanks for asking!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tips about the rut activity signs Chet. Hopefully we can put some of that info to use come October 15th!
ReplyDeleteNo problem, hopefully you have no trouble finding these areas. Good luck come October!
