I'd put two cameras up to catch the baiters...
You might get on NorthWoods Laws!



I try to steer clear of those guys. I did have the game warden pull into one of my fav spots last season and busted some guys baiting.
I do see a lot of them though. 2 of them are my neighbors.

I was thinking of checking out some of the tidal marshes. Was looking at one of the state parks on Google maps and think I found some trails through the grasses. Can't wait to check it out in person.

I work in the expanded zone. Brought my bow with me to work but never had the time. To bad because there are some nice deer around. Guys have been spending their lunch breaks shed hunting and have found some good ones.

Islesboro. Even though they had the locals shotgun season for two years some decent deer have managed to survive, judging from the sheds I have seen and some trail cam pics I have got and heard about...Like anywhere else the smart ones find a way

Yep. Figured as much lol :) Isleboro is awesome ...but unless you have access, locals are pretty brutal to "non islanders" . Some of the highest deer per square mile in the state. I believe its 60 deer/sq mile.
