years ago when I was a kid, and we used to canoe the river bottoms for bass and northerns, the deer in and near the water would let you drift right up to them......kinda the way they used to react to hunters in trees. But the deer have adapted and now realize that danger now comes from both trees and water and it's harder to get close to them in the canoe now. I use several small streams in the areas I hunt to assist me in stillhunting. With a good pair of waterproof boots and using the sound of moving water to drown the sound my footsteps and with the banks for cover... I can cover more ground much more easily and with less chances of being busted.
