This October Guided Fishing Trip delivered non-stop action with perfect deer movement throughout our afternoon hunt.

Using both still hunting and push hunting techniques, we successfully harvested a nice white-tailed deer with impressive antlers. Ray Shetty's expertise in tracking and positioning made all the difference as we navigated the local terrain.

The white-tailed deer in Florida City thrive in the mixed brush and grassland habitat. These deer tend to be most active during early morning and late afternoon hours, making our afternoon hunts perfectly timed for movement patterns. The local terrain provides excellent stalking opportunities with enough cover for approach but sufficient visibility for ethical shots. October is an optimal time as the cooler weather increases daytime movement. The deer here respond well to push hunting techniques as they typically follow established escape routes when pressured.
