Brent, during what month(s) are the Marula fruits available?
Start dropping in February, they peak in March and tail off in April.

Buzz CharltonThats interesting- In the Zambezi Valley we have them starting April peaking in May/June and ending beginning July. As Brent says if the area has lots of Marulas it definitely pulls in the eles.
After the Marulas we have the Masau berries in fruit from July to August and then November if you are hunting late in the Jesse all you need to do if look for the wild Mangoes and you will bump eles!

Dave FulsonBad news Tim
I felt the same after a too late in the season Lord Derby hunt, over 100 degrees every day, walked the arse flat and zipped on the LDE. Sick feeling for sure! GOD knows if Aaron can kill a big bull anybody ought to be able to !!! LOL
Seriously,I feel for you, but I know a jumbo is in your future buddy.

I shot my 60 pounder on May 10th in the valley while he was enjoying the Marulas

L. David KeithZim heat can be brutal in February and some nasty's are crawling, spinning webs and slithering around, but the hunting can be great. You'll connect next time Tim. Your a hard hunter and a good shot, it's the waiting until next time that sux.
Cheers,
D.
