whats everyones thoughts about hunting after this big snow fall ? I never hunted after a snow this big wondering what you more experienced guys think. any tips. thanks

IMO they are gonna hole up for a bit. It's been a tough go here of late, even before the big snow.

If your looking for foxes best place to look would be Friday night at Apple B's or Friday's. The wiley snaggle tooth's you can find at small bars.

I heard you have to go to Chili's for the good ones ;)

Usually after we get a lot of snow,things slow down a bit an gets tough.

I went out last night before the snow and first set had a double (coyote) come in so fast I flubbed the shot clean miss. Second set bobcat came it to ranting redbird knocked over my FoxPro then lit out like his tail was on fire lol. If the winds aren't ripping tonight and you find some snowmobile trail or atv trail that's where I'd setup. They'll be out hunting as soon as they can travel on trails or hard snow.

Cskypup, You had much better results than I did. i went out pretty much right at dark. i made about 4 sets before the snow chased me back home......Nothing. Last night was one of the few nights this year I didn't at least call something
Back to the original question by Tknaub....I think the snow is a little to deep for much to be moving. i'd be more inclined to think they will save their energy for those days they can move around better. I could be wrong. JMO

i think you would do better waiting till friday night or saturday night to go out. With the snow that is coming everything is still going to hold up.

Yea it could have been an anomaly last night and I agree most of the critters will hole up and wait it out. Some of the mort urban places I hunt are great right after a storm but my places out away from things hole up and nothin comes out. If I had some snowshoes tho I'd hit some creek bottoms for coon tonight lol
