I'm going out to camp today, but I don't hold out much hope for getting a gobbler. I have yet to hear one sound off. I am at a loss as to how to hunt them when they are silent like this. We see scratching on our walkabouts, but no gobbling. It would appear from the sign that our turkey population is way down this year.

Here in 2A, I was thinking they may eliminate that 2nd tag until our levels grow back a bit. And ya, I know that the hen's are more integral to the production of the birds, but the more swingin' ummmmmmmmm...…………. beards ? you have out there gotta help with the mating too. Don't confront me either way though. I hunt Morel's in the spring.

Set up and call softly and sparingly. Keep your movements to a minimum and your eyes peeled. Patience my man. 👍

I have zero confidence for tomorrow but we'll be out there anyway.Didn't hear a flippin bird last saturday in an area where I know there's no shortage of birds.I went back monday and heard at least 7 different birds gobbling their heads off.Haven't heard a bird since lol.It will eventually come alive again but I doubt tomorrow is the day.I don't hunt turkeys to kill them.I hunt them to work them.If they aren't talking,I have no interest.

Don’t hunt anywhere in Bradford co. Weather will be so bad that you will have the urge to move to Florida. It happened to candyass Buzz

Based on pictures past, you can probably just open a window ? Just be congenial, and let jj have the first shot.

My son informed me he wants to try Turkey Hunting tomorrow. I informed him I want to try sleeping tomorrow. Guess I'll be up at the crack of dawn looking for one of those god awful ugly birds.

You think he'll let me and laddy boy set a spell on the couch with him, and crack a window for us ?

Actually, I may toss on an Orange hat, go a hill or two over from him, tell him not to shoot at anything with an Orange hat, and look for Morels.

FO is not required for spring gobbler season. That doesn't mean it's not a good idea.....it means it's not legally required.
