I lease about 52 acres that I hunt. Surrounded entirely by Pines plantations (very thick woods). There are a few stands on the perimeter that belong to other hunters. There is no water source near by that Im aware of at least none on my lease. The area that I hunt has one access lane that goes down the middle and a couple of fire lanes off that. A few yrs back a fire came through and burnt some of the underbrush in about 5 acre area. The terrain is very hilly w/wash outs. The timber is mostly mature pines on the entire property except for a few hard wood timber bottoms that I have stands on.

So heres my ?? The section that burnt out a few yrs back has thin underbrush and gets a descent amount of light, the native brouse is thin enough where w/a good days work I could push it back enough to possible make a food plot underneath the pines. There are no other food plots in the area that Im aware of. The access or old logging road goes right down the middle of this area. Would you do a food plot here, and if so how would you do it and what type of plot would you do? I know I should lime it with all the pines but I need the rest of the story.

Any information would be greatly appreciated. Billy
