Semi is your hunting lease in the flood plane? Was wondering is all that water is headed for your hunting camp.

No, it isn't Greg. It's in the pine woods uplands about 30 miles from the Mississippi River. The bottom lands along the river are where the real fertile soil is and where our big deer are. The pine woods uplands have high acid soil and the deer are smaller with a mature doe running around 110 to 120 lbs. and a buck running around 170 to 190, with an occasional monster up to 210 lbs.
Have you seen any news reports up that way showing pictures of the deer concentrated on the tops of levees, or on islands? |
No I havent seen any of the pics. If you have some show them to us, thanks

Here's a short video of some deer coming out of the Morganza floowdway just North of Baton Rouge. The person taking the video is on the crown of the levee.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sx3-zTJA9NY The Morganza control structure and floodway alows excess water from the Mississippi River to enter the Atchafalaya River basin. The Atchafalaya basin is about twenty miles wide and 150 miles long and runs from above Baton Rouge to the Gulf of Mexico at Morgan City. There are levees on the East and West sides of the basin. It's a mixture of bottomland hardwoods, Cypress swamps, and fresh water marsh. The high water is flooding the entire area. |
I don't know the legitimacy of this photo. I received it in an e-mail that said it was taken in the Mississippi delta.

If you look closely its photo shop. The far right the deer are cut off by the balcony. Any more its just hard to believe any pictures.
