We saw just as many deer in the fog as we did in the clear. Sucked for us because we could tell they were deer, not bucks or does though :'(

Fog only means you need to be closer to what you are watching.  I see as many or more deer moving in the fog, usually starting earlier in the afternoon.

I always deer seemed to treat fog like darkness and were confident in it.
