seeking some advice for going in blind to this marsh

Unread postby Ryan » Tue Jun 23, 2015 1:28 am

looking for some advice as to where you guys would set up if you had to go in blind to this spot without being able to scout it prior to going in, prevailing wind is NW, the orange dot is where all the deer trails look to come together, would you expect deer to bed in the marsh or in the group of red dots by the oxbow in that little creek? everything to the west of the red diagonal line is private and cant access, so I'd have to stay east of it,the other pic is a zoomed out version, best quality i could get for google earth, Thanks for the input!

I marked the areas I would expect buck bedding in yellow... I would skirt it with the wind in mind and set up in one of the areas I marked with red dots based on what I saw when I got there.

I love these threads. It really helps me connect the dots on this style of hunting.

Thank you,

What is specific about those areas that they might be hiding a buck?

Thick brush points leading into cattails along a transition.
