All day sitting?

[Musky Buck]

It's tough nowiser, my land isn't the kind I can easily put for sale as it connects to my dads and where he lives. People to the south are chronic early shooters/late shooters. The people to the east have plowed field to hunt so they're poking over our fence quite often, to the north it's unlimited tags by friends and family that are shopping in St. Cloud for the day and thankfully to the west we have a highway. I never dreamt an open 5 acre plot of ground would turn into 2 box stands or we would've bought that years ago. 10 years ago none of these stands with hunters existed and these are pretty brave people that are willing to sling lead into your property, something I'd never consider doing to someone else. My dad has basically given up and given into these guys shooting wherever they want. You can see why my hunt isn't what it once was and it's difficult to accept what will once again be reality opening day and all 9 days and most of the 16 day muzzy season. Sorry guys all day sitting if you have no other theory why not really, I enjoy watching the turkey's,grouse,pheasants,and geese and whatever else is on a fall binge. Good Luck and it's 17 days away gang !

Musky time to get the CO on speed dial, you seem to have a pretty good handle on who the baiters and cross-taggers are in your area. A few tickets might help.

Three of the 4 biggest bucks I have seen or killed with rifle were between 10:30am and 1:00pm. I only hunt from Portable stands (at landowner's request) and it's hard for me to make it all day in those, so I usually climb down at about 1:30 and walk to another stand for the evening hunt.
