RE: DE RUT??
Peak breeding is about the 15th in Delaware. Usually right smack dab in the middle of gun season (which is the exact reason I head over to Maryland that week!!!) The major year to year variances that influences activity level is the weather. For the past few years we have been plague with warm weather during mid-November and that has really supressed daytime movement. Hope for a cold fall and hit the woods hard the first two weeks of Novemeber!!!
