Property Management

Most hunters I have talked with recently have reported a very good hunting season this past Fall. This month, there is still a little late season deer and duck hunting going on. Squirrel hunting is very popular this month as the leaves are off the trees and the squirrels are easier to spot. The fisherman are also reporting good catches of white perch and catfish. Start scouting early this year as turkey season is just around the corner.

January and February is a good time to evaluate timber management on your property. Land lines should be painted to clarify boundary lines. This will pay rewards well into the future. It defines your property. Your neighbors and any service providers on their land will be aware of it. Accidental timber harvest is reduced because there is a well defined line. A lane or roadway cleared around the perimeter of your property is also a good idea. Your property is easier to access, and ultimately identify early signs of land and timber problems. It also serves as a good fire break and shooting lanes during hunting season
