    Most guys with aerials are showing their spots filled with big woods and a random corn patch thrown in here or there.

    Here is a look at my hunting spot, which is almost the opposite of the spots being shown. Not much timber and mostly dominated my ag fields.

    The area I have access to is outlined in red.

    Close up:

    Red/Blue: Property line. The blue is a creek
    Pink: Concrete irrigation canal
    Green: Rub lines
    White: Most prominent trails, mostly used to reach food

    NOTE: Dominant winds are from the SOUTH in the early season, and N-NE in the late season.

    Blank one to have your way with.

    Feel free to ask any questions. I'm sure I left something out.
    So, where should my stands be? :deer:

    I would definitely be using a boat to access the bedding areas well before daylight. Cool looking place.

    Try these out.

    And before you head to your stand, walk thru the pig farm for cover scent.:d

    jm, I have stands in almost the exact spot as two of your picks :d

    The others I have never really considered before, but they seem like good ideas now that I see the dots on the map.

    For me, it may depend on which creek crossings are yielding the largest tracks and which are being used primarily by does(if they are using different crossings).
