Let me tell my side of the story. It is very good hunting, due to the fact it is only open for coon hunting 15 days a year. (south unit) and north unit is open from Nov 16 thru Jan. 31. It will be the most crowded hunting you will ever do. If your dog has me tooing ears- you will be walking to a lot of other peoples trees. It is nothing to have someones elses dog come to your tree 4 and 5 times a night. Which doesn't bother me as long as my dog doesn't go to their trees. St Charles is the town closest to the south unit and sits in north side. You will be able to find it on the map. Coon population is great, duck hunting is good also. Most people use it to Bow Hunt, monster dealta Bucks. You will see a wall hanger if you look, while coon hunting. It is always fun and it will rain coons for 15 days.
Mike you are exactly right. You can tree a pile of coon there but more than anything you can find out what kind of dog your leading by the # of coon you tree vs the long walks just to gather up your dogs when they go to other hunters. Ive been lucky enough to not have that problem but Ive seen those that do and if you don't like being crowded don't go. I cant begin to describe the me 2 dogs that are dumped out every 30 yrds down every road. Its a very unique hunting situation over there. I hear the hunting isn't very good this year most Groups are just treeing 4 to 6 a night. They have been logging in there all year and from what I hear from the guys over there is the acorn crop isn't there like normal years. I haven't been so im just passing along what ive heard..
