| Choosing East Wind Stands to be ready for Opening Day |
|
It’s human nature. Many hunters fall in love with their opening-day ground blind or tree stand because we’ve thought about it for months on end. Does this mean this so-called hotspot will be hot on opening day? Perhaps it will and maybe it won’t. It all depends on wind and weather conditions, and sadly many people don’t play the wind properly. One major problem hunters face is setting all of their stands for the prevailing wind direction. During Michigan’s bow and firearm deer seasons, the prevailing direction is south and southwest in October, west to northwest in November and northwest and north in December.

| Outdoors with Othmar Vohringer |

When I first started blogging, I had quite a few questions about how to get started. The first person to send me great advice and encouragement was Othmar at his blog Outdoors with Othmar Vohringer .

While you are on the river, look at the other boats and it won't take long to determine if they are walleye fishing, bass fishing or sturgeon fishing.
