I fished a pond in Tama Co. on Thursday. 5-6 inches of good ice.

Good luck, it seems like as access to private gets harder to come by the public gets hit harder and harder. I've bow hunted public in IA for 15 years. Once I find a good spot I seem to have it to myself for 2-3 years before I get crowded out, and then it's on to the next spot. It's tough, but...

98 Grand Prix for me. Traded it in blood stains and all after college.

Anyone else make it out chasing birds, yet? I went out quick this afternoon, and managed a couple on public ground. I'm pretty lucky to have a solid dog to keep me on them. Sent from my XP8800 using Tapatalk

I really like my Stealth Cam PX14. It's around $90, and I'm on my 4th year using them with no issues.

The cars haven't gotten all of them. I was struggling to get any decent ones on camera. Sent from my XP8800 using Tapatalk

Has anyone who ordered their tags online or from the app received their tags, yet?

I've had them, and think they're great. I mistimed them this year, and the heavy rains made them pretty mushy before I got to them.

There's been 2 good bucks hit on the highway near where I bow hunt. This pic was sent to me yesterday. The other was a huge 10. Sent from my XP8800 using Tapatalk

How big of a tree can be dug up and moved with just a shovel and bucket? I have a bunch of knee high white oaks that I would like to transplant into a new area.

This property is just under 15 acres with a 1.5 acre pond, 5.5 acres of hay, and some timber. There's big ag fields to the north and south and bigger timber blocks to the east and west. Last year was my 1st year bow hunting it, but I'm impressed at the number of deer that move through it. I'm...

I bow hunt a 400 acre piece and a 15 acre piece. Given a choice I would hunt the 15 acres. I get just as many mature deer on cams on the small piece. it's in a great pinch point, between two large tracts that get 0 pressure. There's probably 2 acres of timber on it. I close on 6.5 acres...

I've hunted public in zones 2,4,7,8, & 9. I've encountered good deer in all zones. I'm a resident so I have a lot more time to explore, but there's overlooked pockets of ground all over the state.

We hung a stand in a lone tree in a cattle pasture due to the advice of the farmer. The deer came out of a marsh a 1/4 mile away and followed a fence line right past this tree headed to the ag fields. It felt and looked strange, but my dad killed a buck the 1st night and I missed a buck the 2nd...

Congrats, I'll hopefully be adding to the forum after this weekend. I have a 3rd season tag.

We found 1 dead fawn that was probably clipped by a car, and a doe that was hung up in a fence. She had a messed up hoof/lower leg like the pics above. I'm guessing that effected her ability to get over the fence.

I got the mount back today. We put a tape on it before we hung it up and came up with 154 4/8. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk
