    More hunting traffic in reg 2

    Man have I noticed an increase in hunters from reg 3 and 5 looking to get a second deer in reg 2 . I’m thinking the harvest numbers will be going up in reg 2 ?( if you know what I mean)

    I did indeed spend one day in region 2 looking.
    Decided screw this zoo I'm going back to northern 3 where I don't see anyone if I get off the road lol

    What I think you're saying is that people will try to be clever and tag a different region buck (likely 3) as a 2 , to "legally" take two deer since most people are to lazy and dumb to get a whitetail

    I noticed roads in my Region 2 area were pretty busy but still nobody actually in the bush. I don't mind if the FSR's resemble a highway. I still never see anyone in the timber

    Yes, quite a few road warriors but they don’t walk more than 100 yards.

    I was surprised with R3 on the long weekend.
    Since R5 closure some years ago now, the little honeyhole I had is a "gong show".
    I finally thought the this would be the 1st year, now that ATV's are officially banned for who knows how long in some R3 mu's, and a 1 MD limit, that things might be quitter then in a long time.
    Nope!, busiest by a longshot, but not really road hunters, lots of guys wanting to "hike it in", but camps everywhere.?

    I think R2 is busier due to the ability to get a 2nd tag for MD/BT only, if you took a deer in R3-8 already.
    Plus, maybe some are keying in on the fact that maybe we have some quality hunting close to home?
    Just a little harder to hunt then your typical MD (imo)

    Didnt see a ton more off the mainline. Boots stopped about 300 yards off where I started walking.

    Definitely more on the mainline but not as much the lesser known fsr roads
