Up to this point all of my hunting has been done where either moving water (like a river or stream) or where runoff carries the soil and sand away leaving rocks, gravel and artifacts behind. I made a very short attempt at a field hunt the other day and found plenty of evidence that leads me to believe that I will find things there when I have more time to devote to a full-on hunt. Because all of my success has come within very close proximity to water, I am hyper-focused on areas adjacent to water--this field flanks a small river. But I wanted to ask all of you that are more experienced than I am, how important is water to your own hunting grounds? Are you having success in fields and other areas that aren't close to streams, ponds... etc?
Also, when there is no obvious dwelling attached to a field that you would like to access, what are some ways you go about finding out who owns the land?
And finally, do you assume that land without 'No Trespassing' signs is fair game? (This sounds like an obvious question, but I had to ask)
