I'd say things are firing up in Columbiana County/Guilford Lake area. Saturday/Sunday all we saw were bucks. Basically a couple bucks each time we were out in mornings and evenings. We didn't see 1 single doe, maybe they are hunkered down a little tighter not wanting harassed??? Sunday morning we used can bleat call and called in 2 diff bucks, one a shooter. Sunday evening much the same, 1 shooter, 1 not. Neither shooter buck provided a shot but they definately were responding to the can call and in the mood. Sunday morning was pretty exciting listening to them crash through the woods after a doe, wow, what a racket they were making! I think it only gets better from here. Not a lot of response to the rattling but definately from a can call.
Another neat thing was a snarl and then 3 short whimpers right before daylight on Sunday morning. I think a Coyote got himself a rabbit is the only thing I can guess. Sounded aggressive and like a quick kill somewhere behind us not too far. My buddy and I were trying to do some filming and both heard it!
Unfortunately I won't get to hunt anymore until Nov. 15/16th!!
