How long does the rut normally last in Pike County Illinois? Is anyone seeing any sign of it starting up?
I will be up there from the 9th until shotgun season start. This is my first year in Illinois and just trying to learn as much as I can.
Thanks
I'll be a couple counties from you 9-15 i'll be in Cass County. Dude you should be in for a treat, my first year in Pike i saw a buck in the first 10 minutes in the county that would smoke anything around here. That county has too many deer, someone needs to thin some does outa there. You and i hopefully should be hitting it perfect, new moon, weather cooling down, im ready. Don't forget a snort wheeze...Words to live by.
