It’s hot! With recent heat indexes soaring near triple digits in much of the country, that last thing on your mind might be the fall deer hunting seasons. Preparing for them shouldn’t be, however.

As my buddy eased the boat around the corner with the trolling motor, we were both in a state of anticipation as we approached the “fishing hole.” Once we reached the hole, we could see several fish cruising around.

Yes, it’s cold. Yes, it’s still winter. Yes, you can still hunt for rabbits and geese. But you can also break out the long rods. The walleye – and believe it or not – even the channel catfish bite can already be underway in Ohio.
This winter has been quite generous in Ohio with colder temps and the availability of ice for those who enjoy my favorite winter activity. Ice fishing is in full-swing, and with that, comes the fun, bounties, and dangers that accompany it.
But it doesn’t have to be dangerous. Taking precautions and using common sense can go a long way toward making this your best season on the ice yet.
There is no doubt that by now most of the deer in your hunting area have become quite reclusive after being hunted for a solid week by a barrage of gun hunters.
