Any recommendations as to where to go? I went last weekend at the Croatan national forest game land near Great Lakes rd and didn’t see much activity at all.
Thanks I went out there today after work and didn’t see anything but I’m sure they’re out there. Really wanna get on some squirrels, I’m used to hunting hardwoods though so that may have something to do with it.I used to live down there and hunt all over the Croatan where you're talking about. I'll post you some coordinates of the only place I was ever successful. Stand by.
Here you go: 34°46'29.55"N 77° 3'32.75"W
There's a white Forest Service gate at the road (or used to be). Park there and walk down the path and then bear right and follow the fire trail along the edge of the swamp - hunt along the fire trail.
Check out the coordinates I provided above - I've killed a few there in the past. Also, another good place is near the boat landing (Haywoods Landing) on the White Oak River, if it's still legal to hunt there.I have read magazine articles about squirrels in Croatan but darned if I can find any...place seems void of them.
Thanks for the coordinates. Yes I have spent quite a bit of time in that area during the past couple months. But I have seen only 1 or 2 squirrels total. How long has it been since you hunted there? Maybe it was just a poor mast crop this year or last year that explains no squirrels there this year...Check out the coordinates I provided above - I've killed a few there in the past.
