Nemadji deer?

[ESSGuy]

My dad was up at the deer shack this weekend near Kerrick in Nemadji forest.Walked some logging roads and never saw a single deer track in areas that had some last year. Will check trail cams in 2 weeks but it sure looks grim. Saw 3 does in 11 days last year. 0 for 5 as we do not take does or yearlings. Anyone have any other observations from this area?

When deer numbers are down the big state forests and public land suffer the most. I do hunt some publicland in the area yout speak. Right now it bad. We do hunt large chunk of private land with some ag on it and we are seeing decent number of deer there. Until numbers come back in northern minnesota it could be tough.

I hunt not to far to the west of you and have been seeing some deer sign.

Hang in there this year but deer hunting should get better next year.

Least hope for a mild winter.
