This may sound crazy but here in NJ I hadent seen any sign of the rut so far this year. Sunday I went out and baited in preperation for thurtsday morning. While I was out I made a moch scrape and used a couple drops of tinks #69. I went out today to make a couple shooting lanes and when I got in my stand I must have spotted 4 or 5 scrapes that werent there saturday morning. I dont know if the tinks made them frisky or just a coincidence
