We hunted the property between you and the Park last November and every evening would see a group of deer, at least half a dozen or so, come out of your property into the field to feed. They would stay right in the middle out of the field, out of range from us. They would emerge fairly close to the front of your property, maybe a quarter of the way back,  

I found 2 more stands on either side of the property . This one faces a field towards Chippewa conservation and the other is a little further in from the unnasumed road allowance on the other side

Good looking deer woods, do you have any plans for food plots etc., yet? Maybe a new stand or two for sure by the sounds of that one!

I found a much nicer , newer stand yesterday while I was checking out the west corner of the property . The east corner had some Turkeys  in a field close to my tree line , the previous owner has told me there are turkey nests in the trees and lots of deer beds there ,but I have not really checked out that side of the  property  so I am not sure what I will find

Lots of accesses. Lots of catch and release and some keep areas. I’m partial to first section below dam the not catch and release section. And I’ve always liked I think trestle area. Caddis lots.

That’s a good spot also if you go up above Fergus from melita auto sales up to the RV sales place there are 3 access points that are equally good spots .

I sort of had permission . I am taking possession tomorrow so you might say it’s ok 

I went for a walk recently and came across this tree stand for deer , it looks like it’s been there for a number of years because the wooden ladder to get up there was in very rough shape . I also found a battery operated deer feeder close by and a lot of deer tracks and rubbing in the area .

Hey Duncan, nice looking rig and yes that's a bummer. Just to help you out, I'd be willing to trade you a 16 foot freighter canoe with 4hp Yamaha on the back. Fresh coat of paint just before last years moose hunt, just needs a few touch ups now and would be mint. You can launch anywhere, no ramp required, no muss no fuss. I'd even throw in a case of beer for good measure.

P.s. If you go for my generous offer, can I borrow the canoe this fall?   🤪

Throw in a couple of sheets of 3/4” plywood and you have a deal 😀

Just received a Email from Fifty point and now the rules are changed again.  The boats. Are allowed to go into the water at the marina , but your not allowed to spend any time on them apart from just checking up on things 

Anyone want to buy a Boat ? Anything over 300k will take it 

My Boat goes into the water on the 29 April at Fifty point ,I can live on it if I want but I am not allowed to take it into the lake . So I can stay on my boat at my Berth along with everyone else ,but it’s to dangerous for me to cast off and be in the middle of the lake .
