The Whackfactor Outdoors team headed Accross the Chesapeake Bay for our annual late muzzleloader hunt on Maryland's Eastern Shore. We hunted public land, as we generally do. The weather was horrible but we made the best of it. Check out the 1/2 inch of ice on us and our gear!

Jesse:We hunted the first morning but had a tough time catching up with the wiley sika deer, With nosika sightings the first morning, we did a little scouting in some new areas and found some good sign. My camera man, Jeremy, and I set up for our evening hunt. We were overlooking a frag patch that was bordered by salt hay. In the past we had noticed that the deer were grazing on salt hay. We had high hopes for this spot, and soon spotted a nice 6 point stag about a hundred yards out in the marsh. I was able to get a good angle for the shot and dropped the stag in his tracks, making for an easy recovery. We got him loaded up in the boat and made the icy trip in to the boat ramp!
