Pea Ridge, what kind of daytime action have you been getting on your camera's the last week if you don't mind me asking? Are they coming out during the day or are they starting to show up at night more frequently again.

Be careful giving too much info. wink I hunt an area very close to you. I've seen your wrangler a few times and it's a good area. Good luck!

Is the rut totally done at Cahaba now? I thought about going with a bow Sunday. I don't get to hunt the Christmas rut at Cahaba cause I am hunting family land in south Alabama during the holidays. I have not been to Cahaba since November.

I just got in the tree, but haven't seen squat since the week before Xmas. I was in Wisconsin and missed the best part. Scrapes haven't been tended to in at least 10 days

They won't be touched anymore more then likely. They are winding down with the rut now. But you can still score if u hunt food sources. Still plenty of acorns on the ground

I called in a good buck today (using doe bleat) to within 75 yds. He cut my wind however, so I didn't get a shot. Seems it is about over though.

You kill any good ones on Cahaba this year Pea Ridge? I know you usually get a good one every year. You know that place better than anyone. I got a spike early in the bow season but have not hunted it as much as I had hoped. I have been hunting from the ground mostly.

Just got done checking my cameras. Had a few chasing on new years eve and then it settled down. No bucks in daylight but had several browsing at night. Today was my first day out there since the last gun hunt. Heard a buck grunting up a storm today on a ridge across from me maybe a 100 yards away but never could actually see him. A doe was trailing him lower on the same ridge and then about 10 minutes later what looked like her fawn came through crying not stop trailing her. Saw another young buck strolling through. No new scrapes or rubs and the old ones have not been revisited. However, I did find one scrape that looks like it was visited last week sometime.

Didn't see a thing this afternoon on Cahaba. Tried a new spot, a creek bottom that feeds down from a food plot a couple hundred yards away on some private land. I was hoping to catch them slipping up that way to feed before dark, but nothing came through. I'm torn on where to go in the morning, only time I have found a white oak was after I had to raft across the Cahaba and I don't care to do that in these temps. Going ground blind in the morning so I can layer like crazy and then I'll climb a tree mid day and afternoon. I figure tomorrow will be my last time out there this season if I get skunked in an all day sit.

Any of ya'll drive a gray yota or nissan that was parked a few gates down from the check-in today? Normally I see it parked off 22.

I'm almost positive I've hunted this same spot earlier in the season. I know there could be a million spots like this but I would have described it the exact same way. IM me...Shelby or Bibb? N or S?

Based on my experiences and cameras, I would say that the majority of the rut on Cahaba was during the 2nd and 3rd weeks of December and anything left up to now would be considered secondary rut activity from does that weren't bred during that time such as the activity I witnessed today. However, I really hope I'm wrong.

Well I think I am abandoning my usual area. Not enough food sources. Going to climb down in a few and try a different location. Today is probably my last day on Cahaba and last bow hunt of the season. Nothing with the bow for the 6th straight year. Hope to hunt Tuskegee on the 19th and Clayton or new Brockton the first week in February. Come warmer weather I will have to put boots on the ground and find the darn oaks!
