Well went to where the deer have been messing around. South side of the river. Seen a total of 8 deer but nothing came close for a shot. They went to the North side of the river and milled around right in front of my blind! 🤨 Go figure.

I decided to take the boat and new blind for it's inaugural trip this morning. Wind must have been low last night because the geese were roosted in the open water instead of where I planned for them to be. Slid right into 30+ that I saw blow up in the dark. A couple hundred yards later I get to my chosen bank and spook a deer right next to the water
Had some birds fly over but none worked in. Had another boat come by shortly after sun up with a couple guys deer hunting. Kind of weird seeing orange appear out of the fog. As I was leaving I saw a guy about 100 yards away on top of the ridge. My bladder was very happy he didn't have an acceptable deer come within range.
BUT, my day was perfect. I had a decoy take a little float about and I got to see 4 juvenile otter hunt it. About a half hour later I look over and there are 7 about 15 yards away. The older 4 juveniles had 3 very young pups "hunting" the duck. Absolutely the coolest thing I have personally witnessed in nature!
Today was a very special sunrise.
I did get a good look at one of the adults. It could have kept the duck. Or all the ducks. Maybe even the boat if it wanted. That thing was as big, if not bigger, than my leg!

Dang I bet that was cool but no pics? ? All I had was my cell phone and was honestly too wrapped up to think about it. After they went back to the den I was thinking I need to look into a good video camera. My hunting partner always talks about filming hunts, but that just hasn't been a priority to me. Things like this are what I regret not having video of.

No deer seen this evening. The neighbor decided that it was a good time to drive around right at prime time 🙁

Headed to my stand with the recurve, did a ground hunt yesterday afternoon but no luck. Now that buck hunting is over looking to put any size doe in the freezer. Nice, calm, cold and bright morning. Good luck out there everyone and be safe.
