Default Help on a smart buck please!

Hello all. Well, I caught a very big 8 point on cam 2 days before season. As luck would have it, opening day evening, he showed up. He came in from the field, 60 yards out, circled a forked tree and needed down behind it. This was an hour before dark. He constantly looked around as I could see the rack constantly turning. About 5 minutes before shooting hours ended, he then got up and wondered off. I stayed till well after dark to keep from spooking him. He has been seen by the landowner several times and frequents my area. He's obviously very smart. Any ideas on setups and tactics are appreciated. Its a strip woods of maybe 100 yards wide with the Wabash river bordering one side. Southern Illinois.
