sms_alum Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 Anybody on here ever bow hunt Howell Island before. I have heard some good things and was planning on heading out there after work today to check it out. From what I hear as long as you are willing to hike it can be productive. Hopefully the rain stays away this afternoon.
sms_alum Posted September 25, 2009 Author Posted September 25, 2009 Well, I went to check it out yesterday and took my bow. Didn't see any deer, but there are signs of them all over. I probably wont head back until we get a few good freezes because that place is incredibly thick and there are more mosquitos there then I care to deal with. Still would love to hear if anyone else has had any luck out there.
duckydoty Posted September 25, 2009 Posted September 25, 2009 Use to hunt Howell Island 15 or 20 years ago. Long walks in. Use to have corn and beans in the fields in the middle. Southern end use to be the best. Bagged lots of turkey out there. Boating in from Little Femme Osage Slough on the Weldon side to the Southern tip usually worked better than dragging a deer 3 miles out of the woods. Good luck out there.

Seth Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 I was going to try hunting there last year and the mosquitoes were so insanely bad that I said to heck with that. Never did make it down after it froze to try it again.
