SxS is drinking 5 gallons of gas every 2 days on this line. So, its costing me about $8/day in gas x 15 days = $120. Plus its a 4 hour drive from home in the Tundra...so most of 2 tanks....that's another $140.
Ive spent about $125 total on food...so far.. there will be some food carried home. Landowner has fed me twice. Caught and ate fish 1 night with hushpupies....plus have 4 quarts of bass filts to carry home. Grilled beaver backstrap with home fries and green beans last night.
5 more check days...

Had a coyote yesterday digging at the back of a dirthole remake that had caught a grey fox a few days ago.
I left trap and dugout hole in place but dug a deep vertical hole with auger to right of trap about 6" and baited with tainted deer meat....no lure.
Checkmate today with one of the coyotes posted above.
I have seen the same pattern that Savell mentioned of coyotes working remakes from the back many times.
Just fyi for those interested.

Looks like it should be full of deer and turkeys. This place is incredible. They take 150" plus deer annually. The roads in here are solid turkey tracks. See gobbler flocks daily. A small sample of bucks photograped here...

Artifacts:: surface hunting or doing a little digging? Digging in Ga, even on private land, requires permits. These are surface finds in the food plots. My hands/wrists hurt so bad that I couldnt dig if I wanted to.
