We usually have problems with our dogs in the rain, if we go ahead and let loose, we' re usually lucky to get 3-4. We don' t typically let loose in the rain/snow/high wind anymore though, we get enough in fair weather that we don' t need to hunt when we' re guaranteed to have problems, if we' re already out, then we' ll keep at it, but when we get 8-12 coons on average a night (last 5years), and we go out three nights a week, we just don' t need the 3-4 that we MIGHT get on bad weather.
