We have any obsessive Sika Deer hunters , that hunt Dorchester County Maryland ?

Cause I sure am :D

I'd turn down a whitetail hunt in Saskatchewan for a good Sika Deer hunt in Texas ;)

Get a copy of any major Texas newspaper, and look through the ads for hunting leases.... I'm sure you'll find plenty.

Or a bit of searching on the Internet should turn up plenty of hits, if someone here doesn't give you a few leads.

Good luck....

Yeah, I had to shoo the Whitetails off the lawn last night. :D However, try to find them in November.

Bye

I'm not at the moment looking to go to Texas for Sika's. My point was if I were offered a trip to Canada for whitetails and a trip to Texas for Sika's I would got to Texas for the Sika's hands down .
Again thats not to say I would not like to go to Canada for big whitetails , but my preference would be Sika deer .

Being from Md , there are alot of place to hunt sika. I lease land in Dorchester but no Sika.There are public lands that are only accessible buy boat that sports some real good Sika hunting. Also you can hunt Asiteak Island with a permit for Sika.

I used to be in on two leases in lower Dorchester County . One was on Hip Roof road and the other on Beech Ground road . I've also hunted the Blackwater a time or two . I even killed a nice 6 pointer there during the gun season last year , he dressed out at 90 pounds .
I have thought of getting a jon boat to hunt Taylors Island and parts of Fishing Bay . But haven't yet .

I have acess to a hundred acers on Taylors Island . We at one time had 1000 acers . but lost a little at a time. Our club did. My land lord of the prperty that I lease now is a big sika hunter. he's from Cambridge . My lease is just off 16 before Black water.

What is your lease running per acre now ? I think we were paying about $20 an acre for one and about $14 an acre for the other in 1999. We had about 700 acres between the two.

If I could find a decent piece over there that was about 20-40 acres I would consider buying it , I believe .
The first six pointer I killed was in the early ML season and one of my buddies was hunting about 40 yards away from me , we were both 20 feet up in trees and we could not see each other.

I pay about 35 acre. I know some who pay alot more.

I have turkys , squirle .Wood Ducks. White Tails on my lease.

I was sitting in front of the Blackwater refuge office the sunday morning before thanksgiving last year at about 7AM . Looked in that little field and a decent 6 point whitetail came out . Then three WT does followed by a 4 point WT . After that 6 or 7 WT does filtered out and I thought the parade was over then I looked up and an honest 140-150 class 8 point WT walked out . I was sitting in my truck 60 yards from him looking at him with 10x binocs and he was looking back . I know he screwed around in that field for 4 or 5 minutes .
I told the park service people what I saw and they said oh yeah that was the small one :D

Sent in my Blackwater application on the 5th for early ML and shotgun season . Now wait and see if I got the areas I put in for :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

MAy go up later and get a bow permit so I can scout the areas I recieve more then just the scout only day.

I'm impatient when it comes to my Sika permits . Think I'll call tommorrow and see what areas I got ;)

Bought one of the "new" T/C Encore Pro Hunters in a ML with an extra 12 gauge slug barrel . This is just for the Blackwater :D

Well made it to the Blackwater for the early ML season and the shotgun season .

Heard them bugling both times but no sightings for me .

Did hear quite a few shots the morning of the shotgun season and a few the morning of ML season .

Now I can't wait until next year :D
