On September 1st, the very first state hunting season starts (I can't remember what animal it is, although I know it's not deer) and I'm not too sure if I'll be there. Technically, this mudpit is not in not a park but in a public hunting ground/state wildlife management area. I am not sure how busy it'll be come September but that is the date when guns stop being totally illegal in there. If nobody's ever in there anyway, perhaps I can go there for longer, but if I DO find hunters there you can bet your bog I'm OUTTA there with a bang since I am not crazy about sinking under gunshots.
I do generally take the camera with me although I don't always get something useable. Weather has a lot to do with that. And I can only get there on weekends.
The mudpits in the park nearby are not quite as photogenic or as easy to use although I plan to use them 'til they freeze...but of course the wardrobe becomes very limited around mid-September. Cold doesn't stop me from sinking at all but it doesn't make great footage.
No guarantees but the season ain't over and possibly there's at least a couple good days coming.
