30 January 2016 Saturday
This was the first day of having plans of what to do for the coming year. I went up by myself to place our one camera, scout about for new stand location, possible shooting lanes, places for licks and mineral sites, and general deer activity. I put out some licks and sprinkled mineral attractant, near Kris & Jon’s, Jessie’s, Lenise’s stands; poured out Sprout feed and mineral attractant in the area where I thought I would put my stand. I put up our first trail camera in time lapse mode pointed down a trail near in the same area. There are some good looking spot on the EastEnd and lot of deer sign and activity.February 2016
20 February 2016 Saturday This was the first day Kip and I went out to spray, decide on shooting lanes for Lenise’s stand, put out some licks and put up our first trail camera in time lapse mode. We rented a sprayer from North Suburban Rental, brought two coolers of water, purchased insecticide and Roland pitched in the herbicide. We sprayed the main road out to the EastEnd, partially sprayed the road out to John’s stand, did two passes on both meadows, and used the tank sprayers to spray around the cabin and the driveway to the gate. We put out licks and sprinkled mineral attractant, near Kris & Jon’s, Jessie’s, Lenise’s stands; poured out Sprout feed and mineral attractant near Lenise’s stand. There were three natural shooting lanes, so it was an easy trim of a few small trees and some brush. We also cleared an area to bare ground and spread Antler King’s Honey Hole. We found the camera batteries did not last in time lapse mode; the camera lasted about 4 four days. We swapped out the the memory card and found not much was caught in time lapse mode, so we switch to trail cam mode...March 2016
8 March 2016 Tuesday We ordered a second Browning camera from Trail Cam Pro and placed it near the first camera. It is amazing how much the spraying knocked down the plants and knocked the mosquitoes and ticks. Our first trip out Kip and I pulled about half dozen ticks; we did spray our clothes with Permethrin. This time only one tick and the mosquitoes were hardly swarming, until we moved away from the sprayed areas. The Honey Hole food plot is growing well, and was pawed up by the deer. I don’t have over-seed like I did, but the area needs more sunlight. The Sprout feed was not being eaten once green plants starting to grow, so we stopped putting that down. The licks and minerals sites however are being used readily. We swapped out memory cards, and found later there are bears in the area, along with an Eastern Mountain Lion, which the DNR dubbed a ‘bobcat’... 12 March 2016 Saturday We sprayed a second time, re-doing the road past Kris & Jon’s stand out to the EastEnd, and the road past Roland’s stand to the North Line...Sunday 1st January 2016
