Tuesday, November 5, 2024 am Sunset 4:49 pm. Hunting closes at 5:19 pm. Temperature 49 degrees Wind: S-SW 5-10 mph. Mostly cloudy. Raining. I drove back down from Cannon Falls today. I got to Copper around 1:30 pm. Kyle arrived around lunchtime. Because it was raining, he went to the Ballagio and I went to the Stump blind in the Blue Bird field. I was ready to go by 2:00 pm. It is not ideal conditions, but the blinds make it tolerable. At 5:08 pm, I had a small 6-7 pointer buck come down the hill from the south. He ran down to my fuzzy decoy. He did like what he saw and he blew and headed back up to the south of me. That was it. Totals: 1 deer. 1 small buck.
