I have never been there before, so I have no idea what to expect. Do you need a boat to hunt there or are there walk in spots. I have a 17 foot boat that is kind of big and didn't know if I need a boat and if i would need to get a smaller boat to take. Any help would be greatly appreicataed. I am not asking for what spots are the best just need to know what i will need to hunt there. I live in Noble County so I really don't want to make the 3 hour drive to check it out.

This is basically a repost since I somewhat hijacked transformed1001's thread earlier today.

Anyway, a guy from Traditional Gang put together a pictorial/tutorial on deer processing. I think he does a fantastic job of showing and expaining the work in an easy to understand way. His advice on pulling the tenderloins asap and grilling them up is spot on. Hope you enjoy.

After running trail cameras all year long, there were two bucks I had my mind set on, and either one would make me happy.
As the afternoon wore on anticipation built. I was situated in a finger of woods surrounded by a sea of standing corn. The farmers were getting this last bit of corn in and I figured any deer bedded in the standing corn would eventually filter into the woods I was in.
About 3:45 p.m. a small buck appeared and I watched him for awhile. He eventually wandered off and all was quiet again, except for the sound of the combines. A little while later I glanced at my phone, 5:oo p.m.
Suddenly I saw movement to my northwest at about 100 yds. It was a "shooter" buck. He carefully picked his way along as I got into position for a shot. When he stopped behind a tree, I checked the yardage with my rangefinder, 57 yds. I centered my scope in his direction and when he cleared the trees I fired the TC Encore muzzlelaoder. The shot was good and he didnt go far. As I approached the downded buck I saw he had more points then what I thought he had.
I was pleasantly suprised as I had never seen or had trail cam pictures of this particular buck! It just goes to show that you never know what is going to appear when the rut is in. He is a typical 12 pointer and will score around 150 inches.
