Bedding and fluctuating water levels
Posted: Fri Apr 15, 2016 5:41 am
The lakes around where I hunt are impounded rivers. From may to September the water level is at summer pool. Starting September first the water is drawn down to prepare for fall and winter water. The winter pool is 5ft lower than summer pool. Has anyone ever had much experience with bucks bedding in areas after the water drops. For me it would only open up isolated trees or pockets but might be worth a shot. The water level is always changing but they try to keep it as consistent as possible. Also, the area I'm looking at relieves a bunch of runoff from drainage. It can be almost impossible to walk thru because the mud is so deep and soft. I didn't know it that would deter deer since I think it would be hard on them too.
