    How is everyones seaseon going? I live in central indiana and following proven dogs and we are just not killing any coon .Season has been in about 2 weeks now and we have only killed less than 10.Every one that hunts around here is doing about as bad. I'm just wondering if anyone is doing any good elsewhere. I don't know if the coon aren't moving or we don't have many.
     

    Yeah

    There is a guy on a different subforum so menaced by a coon he might let you run your dogs through his attic.

    I put out a dozen or so bucket sets last week and rounded up 10 coons, so they seem to be out and moving around here.

    I'm located in central Indiana also. And I'm not having much luck either. Someone said they read online that the drought caused them to move out. But I've been hunting around water and still not finding them.

    Coons keep visiting my mineral sites and tripping my trail cameras. Running in packs of 3-5, not much size. We have a small creek in the woods, so unlimited water supply.

    Rough going last night. We had several drops where we didn't pull a bark. Pups looked good on the one running track we had all night and finished it with two looking down.
