Drove around the easy spot with the tracker turned on and got a pretty good signal from Mabels collar. She was on the west side & I didn't want to come in from the tar. I drove to the east side and cut Roy and then started tracking Mabel. I walked around the big curve and right through the woods to the corn on the west side. I caught Mabel there just wandering around. I leashed her and made a full walk around the section covering all the woods and corn. Roy hunted all over but never barked once the whole time. I loaded up and went home. That's 4 nights in a row without seeing a coon using 4 different dogs. I guess I need to regroup & come up with a new plan. It sure would help if some of this water starts to freeze.
