iirc, Navasot on here had a feeder flood halfway up the feeder legs and I believe he hunted it, but not sure. Deer probably come in on a dugout though grin

Wish I was......I'd keep hunting as long as the rising water doesn't push you out. Bring a Snack with you? Best of luck to you!

Good Luck! I think I would hunt all day. That water could push a big boy out of his hiding spot.

I Feed Indian Corn. The deer love it and all the colors make them stay at the feeder longer.

Grand kids out of school thinking bout giving this stand break and going to river bottom stand lot more open can see lots ground .Tis location is tight and fast when something is just walking by . My river bottom stand gives lots time and has lots timber edges to watch it's only 12 miles north of here.
Looks same out north east and west

Love hunting the floods edge! I had a place that would cover up to half the place in flood water depending on the gates the north lake let out... I would hunt the edge all day while it was up because it could be gone the next day.. if i was on the edge and it started dropping id move deeper into the place with it... and so would the deer.. cool pics!
