Advice..... prepare for the worst mosquitoes you have ever seen. Bring 3 thermocells.


On most of the property, finding a tree big enough to climb is hard. I hunted there some 25 years ago and saw deer on several of my hunts.

Hello,

I have a deer lease in Longville but they of course picked this week, after i did all the work of planting food plots and getting everything set up, to start clear cutting most of my stand locations:pissed:. So looks like i am going to need another place to deer hunt for awhile. Does anyone have a map or tips on deer hunting on lacassine? I have a boat and bow. Just never did anything there but fish in the bayou side and pool. I live in gueydan so this is the closest place for me. Any help would be welcomed. I wont be back from work till oct 7 and dont want to go running around through everybody's spots lol. Thanks

You should deer hunt your place on longville. most hunters don't understand the benefits of a clear cut. Find a trail or somewhere they are entering the clear cut and you'll be fine.

I had hood like a bee keeper's hood. I found the sun would shine off the netting and make it hard to see. Had to mostly look away from the sun while wearing it.

I have found that mud is the best thing for mosquitoes. It sucks at first, but just stick your head in some mud and let it cake on there. The mosquitoes cant get you and it is also great camouflage. Acts a a cover scent also. Everything in that marsh smells like mud so it doesnt spook the deer. I think deer can smell those Thermacells

Best part is mud is free and there is plenty of it. You can stick some grass on the mud on your head and really make yourself blend in
