running some but action has been slow. Trees have been earned this winter. All the boars have been taking off on long runs meaning long walks. And sometimes you walk to 2 or 3 Den trees before we get to see one. I hate this time of the year seems like almosy everything goes to den trees. Late season is tough hunting. Can't wait till the beginning of march to roll around so we can start putn 2 and 3 up again every night. Right now when their mating its always tough hunting in the mountains.

This week, in the central VA area, we are treeing a lot more coons on the outside than we were 10 days ago. According to the "Best Time to Hunt" calendar,this should be a very good week. Hopefully, it will warm up some. Good luck!

Here in this part of the state we have been doing pretty good. Seeing quite a few compared to the last couple of years but not near as good in years past.

Tree'd 3 last night. We had a good hunt and had several people just going with us to hear the dogs. Glad the coon were moving. It goes through spells though. We will have a good month or two and have a not so good month.

I was able to get out twice this week here in Amelia/Powhatan, but never hit any really hot tracks. Made a den tree one night and finished the other night with a mile hike in to one on the outside.

It's been kind of hit and miss down here in southeastern Va. lately, but we've been treeing a few.

Last night was a good one. We hunted young hounds (less than a year old), struck two tracks, made two trees, and found two coons.

Tree, Sam!

I've been doing most of my hunting fairly early between 7pm and 9:30pm. What time do you guys seem to be having the best luck?
