Thread: Sika Hunting

Im taking my Brother into the Waipakihi Hut this weekend for a Hike/Hunt.
I'm trying to sus out what to do in terms of where the deer are likely to be.
I've been reading up on what the japs will be doing at this time of the year, from what i've read the stags should be moving around more to get to their rutting pads, but whats the best plan of attack?.
Will they be on the river flats or crossing over the ridges, should i be getting up before daylight to glass guts and gullys or will they genearlly be holed up in the bush through out the day

Any advice is appriciated
