Default RE: River Bottom Deer Hunting- Need Info

It could take a while. We had a flood along the Milk River back in 1986 during September. When the water finally went down the flood had changed a lot of the brush, bedding areas, etc. Some pockets of brush had been competely washed out and deposited in other areas. It was a strange year to hunt. I never really did figure out the deer patterns that fall along the river and creek bottoms, so I moved up to higher ground that hadn't been affected by the flood and found that many of the deer had moved up there and pretty much stayed there for the rest of the fall.
