Gores Pool access

[5806]

I'm interested in hunting Gores Pool this fall. I'm thinking more about using waders and a small number of decoys on some of the smaller bodies of water rather than using a boat on the bigger lakes ie North Lake. Is there any practical way to get in on foot? I drove around it for about an hour this afternoon and could only find the marked boat access points. Thanks.

You could walk the train tracks. If I were you, I would try to get across to Mud hen. Being it's so shallow, nobody will be there. Great lake to hunt too. But I cant see leaving my boat on the other side whilie I hunt. I hate to say it. But I trust no body in something I have invested in.

Just thinking about it. On the very south side on North there is a beaver dam no body really hunts because it's not boat accessible. That would be nice!

There is a access road to several beaver pounds just after you cross the bridge. Or the train track method works well too. Mud hen can be good.

Stupid question but where is Gores Pool?

Gores Pool is a WMA just southeast of Hastings. Thanks for the info re the tracks and trail. I checked it out today and I think that will be the ticket.

I grew up in the area and used to hunt the whole bottoms pretty extensively. Just watch using the tracks... I know they have tagged guys for using them to get to hunting spots. Technically they are private property and you can be tagged for trespessing. I used to muzzleload between the Vermillion River and Mud-Hen and got "chewed out" royal by a RxR crew checking tracks with one of those RxR pick-ups. They have had a lot of vandelism problems I guess and they will turn you in. I talked to them and pointed out I was 50 yards from my truck at the landing on the Vermillion and I assured them it was never me who caused the problems... since then I either boated back in or walked the ice if it was safe.

Good Luck!
