You still have 4 more days yet Ridge!! Yes sir. Will have to watch the radar for Saturday morning. As of now they are calling for steady rain here. Memorial day looks good, so I will probably head out in the morning for sure on that day. Then I have Tuesday morning before work as my last hurrah!! |

I was going down over the hill to pick up an order of groceries the Mrs. ordered on-line. I took the back roads and as I rounded a curve there was a fellow sitting on the tailgate of his pickup with a very nice gobbler hanging over the edge of the tailgate! Nice bird for a day like today!!

Gus wouldn't make it to four if I had a say, lol.
Gonna hunt Memorial day morning chasing the three longbeards that gave me the slip last week. No idea if they are still in the area or not but I have a few hours and might as well find out.

So…yesterday I went fly fishing at Buffalo creek. Now last week when I was there I had a gobbler fly across the creek & pop out on the road maybe 50yds away.
So…back to yesterday… I started out in one place, then I drove up about 100 yds to fish another spot. I keep a wing bone Turkey call in my truck just for fun. So, I got out & gave about 3-4 clucks on the call…grabbed my stuff and made my way the 20 yds to the stream. After about 30 minutes, as I was casting a flurry of wings just 15th s to my left as a nice gobbler flew across to the opposite side of the stream! Nice beard and a full red head!!
I gotta start taking my 12ga fly rod!!

Had two gobbling their heads off for about an hour and a half. Unfortunately, they circled me and hung up at about 200 yards before going quiet. Walking out now. I think I will wrap it up and not go tomorrow. It was a good season even though one tag still remains unpunched. Its so thick out there around here, not sure I could even get a shot with the crossbow at this point.
