What are your late season tactics?

Seems like majority of hunters are focused on the early-season and rut. After the gun season, how do you usually hunt?

Discuss.

I still stick with buck bedding areas so I don't really change my tactics too much.

deer, or mature bucks? hunting deer is almost easy... finding old bucks... not so much.

My late season is usually spent pheasant hunting.

i dont know about you but trying to get close to a buck bedding area in hill country is very hard...open woods white snow on the ground , big blob walking through they can see long ways ....and yes i find that the bucks bedd close to the food scores allso ....the less they have to walk to better

im not much of a marsh hunter so i cant say much about that

I've never enjoyed late season hunting unless it's with a gun. After the gun opener in Iowa I generally call it quits and get back to real life, maybe do a doe hunt here or there.

Seems like lately the last three years or so I have had my best buck sightings late season. Last season around Christmas I saw a giant that was bedded in cattails with another mature buck. The bigger one is still around. I saw him shining on Oct. 29th. Hope he is bedding in the same spot late season. I need ice to access this spot because any type of boat, canoe or kayak is illegal to use on these lands.

I am very excited about late season and it is my favorite time to hunt. Snow, cold weather and pretty much zero hunting pressure. Doesn't get any better than that.

Agreed as well!

As far as tactics, I find that around me, deer really herd up, so finding where they hang out (and then getting permission, which is usually the hard part) and find out where they are eating is my go-to strategy..
