You probably have a tick crawling up your leg too
Turkeys
- Thread starter adoc65
- Start date
Turkeys are out of the swamp here, and back on the uplands but there's still too much snow to really get around, so they tend to stay on roost until very late in the morning, then hit a magic pile of corn that somehow shows up at the neighbors.
Application for first season is in. Should get an email from the DNR in early March.
Late April - prime gobbling time. Got a nice new slate call and a @BrentD cherry wood box call ready to go. Once the snow is gone, I'm going to set up another blind on the backside of the property on a travel line between a field and the red pines. Set up a feeding hen decoy, let out some clucks & purrs and wait patiently.
Should probably call the neighbor too and see if I can get permission.

Saw one strutting last Friday morning, it's early here for that but I can't blame them.

Can’t wait drew black hills and packing Wyoming tags as well. Gonna be a great season. And if anyone has any fishing spots up that way you wouldn’t mind sharing I’d appreciate it.

Jealous of all you seeing and hearing gobblers already. It’s negative digits again this morning and 8 inches of snow a few days ago. Spring still seems so. Far. Away.

Don’t get me wrong, we need it too. Wish it had been more widespread.

Looking forward to this year. Have a grandson that I think I can get out for a bit, bought a CVA 410 with some TSS...need to get the red dot mounted and sight it in soon, it's off at the gunsmiths as it needs a hole or two tapped to mount the new low profile red dot I bought for it. Saw some Toms strutting the other day but not a lot of activity yet, still pretty cool with snow cover having them bunched up. Should have been a good winter for them unless we get hammered in March or April yet.
