The Lake Superior water shed has been especially hit hard. Since the winters of 96' and 97' deer numbers along lake superior have been decimated. From 91' to 2000' I hunted up by a place called Big Bay. It is true that I saw few if any other hunters, gun shots could be counted on both hands, it was very peaceful and the country is beautiful - HOWEVER, every year i saw less and less deer. I'm not trying to send someone off in another direction - just telling you like it is.
