We made it to the truck and the sky fell out. Bad winds and some tornadoes have been reported.

If the weather breaks, we will go get on the property.

We made it through the storm. It quit raining and Hunter was napping so I went to river and ran the lines. Caught 1 3#er. Told Hunter to get up cause I’m going hunt the property. He wouldn’t get up so I left the fuggar. He has his own truck and atv.

Water is up and rising as my bridge goes under w that kind of rain. It will be on the road by the time I get out. Might need a boat to cross in the morning idk. Anyway when I pulled up to the gate (gate is on bridge) two does was on the road. Been 20 minutes and haven’t seen another.

Hopefully deer will move after this weather that we just had. Cooler and sunny tomorrow. Time to kill a big one this evening.

Here we go. Crossed the bridge w no water over it. Busted two deer going in. Got in stand and nothing happening. Little bit later a doe crossed, then another. Few minutes longer another. 5 minutes later another. Then someone opened the gate. I had does and 8pts, a six point and spike. They all looking. Seen 18 total. It was a great hunt. Got dark and I left only to find the bridge covered in water. Another 16” and I won’t be able to cross on atv. It’s steadily rising and will be too deep in the morning. If it’s too high I will be in my waders and put my knee boots on after crossing and walk the 3/4 mile to hunt.

Couldn’t get hunter up as he took a nap while it was raining. After the rain I went and baited the lines and only caught one. River is rising so not expecting to catch anything tomorrow. Hunter text me and said he was hunting/scouting the public land. Said he could see a deer but couldn’t see horns. It walked away and said there was a stud w it....no shot. Said 17-18 inches w 10” tines. He will be in a stand there in the morning. Dj is coming in tonight. Hopefully Giles gets a nut pic tomorrow.

I hope you don’t catch a damn thing. Show you what it feels like when deer don’t play everywhere else in the country.

Oh poor me, deer ain’t following the script. Just gonna go catch fish or duck hunt. Poor bastard, the ducks ain’t flying. Still have fish to fall back on...🖕🏿 When deer don’t play around here, I better stop and grab me a McFish on the way to the beer depot. 😂🤣😂

We may have bigger deer, but you have tons of options. Pigs/deer/ducks/fish/bears to watch. Life ain’t always greener bub, chin up.

Ok Dj made it in last night. He had to drive through the weather to get here. Hunter is hunting public, he seen a good buck and is hot and heavy on killing a mature public land buck.

Me and Dj went to property. As I figured the water was a foot higher than last night coming out, probably more. Walked back to the truck and we both put on waders. Drove down to the bridge and dj got off to walk it. It’s about 80 yards across. After I followed w my atv and water went up to my front fender, over the head lights. I have a 550 grizzly so it’s tall to begin with. Anyway we made it and Dj is hunting his stand which is usually the big buck stand. Crp meets the big woods. NNW wind about 8 right now and 50 degrees. Checked my cam and have a good buck crossing at 8:30 pm. Several other bucks, does, touted, coons and a big ass bear.

LET THE BODIES HIT THE FLOOR!

Well it’s been a slow morning, compared to yesterday evening. 4 does and 2 spikes and one spike for Dj. Hunter didn’t see anything and just got down to do a little scouting. Hopefully the water is going down and not been coming up. We gonna climb down in 20 minutes.

43 this morning and finally clear sky’s with NNE wind. We all in same stands. This is looking like best weather this morning till Tuesday. Fucking rain coming again tomorrow. I will be going home also for a couple days as it will be hot and raining. Spend New Year’s Eve w my wife as it’s our anniversary. Then I’m coming back as I will be taking 3 shifts off from work.

Only change is Hunter is on public and it’s primitive season which means he’s gonna shoot a doe if he wants idk. Got 15 minutes till killing time so hold on tight, I got that feeling..... and it’s not the Hershey squirts lol.
