Cook/Brooks/Colquitt Rut Update

[Gone Fishin]

No Rut Yet

We picked up a deer from LE processing in Morvin. A guy was there with a 6 point and his tarsals were NOT dark, and he didn't smell at all.

They have to start any time now.

My dad shot a nice one Sat trailing some does. He was NOT "stinky", but his tarsals were a little stained. Just beginning to rut. This next 10 days should be hot and heavy.

Colquitt Co. near Ellenton and Norman Park. I had good sign and tracks a week ago and now nothing - no sign or tracks anywhere.

Put fresh corn out, but still nothing. Anyone else having trouble?
