I dont think the moon has anything to do with tracking condishions, but it for sure has one on how game moves. I have also noticed that on full moon nights, I find more coon by body than eyes.
Smart hunters take that in to account when they decide where to hunt. Myself, when the moon is full, I head for the big woods. Like someone else said, its darker there.
Myself, I put more into the ground condishions than the moon phase. Its as dry here right now as its ever been. Still tree coon, but let us get one of those rare things called a rain shower or something like that, and man those mutts look like a million dollars. Frost, snow, and a bunch of other stuff effects it also.
Go up north and you can tree coon in the snow. We get a dusting of snow down here and the coon wont come down till it melts. In years of regular rain fall, dew isnt a big deal. This year they can look like crap all night, let the dew fall and man o man you got a dog agian.
Bottem line, if you have a coondog you will tree coon no matter what its like outside. You will just tree more and have an easier time when the condishions are better.
Now if I could just find one of those smart hunters who owns a coondog, Id be in high cotton.
