mowin Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 I'm up... But not hunting turkeys. Buddy is taking me striper fishing. I've only caught one little dink 30 yrs ago, so I'm excited. Good luck to those out chasing turkeys. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpStateRedNeck Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 Thinking about breaking out the blind and setting up in our lower field. Wind is supposed to switch to north and it'll be sheltered there. Can't see them wanting to be in the hardwood on a windy day like this. Or maybe sneak out to my buddies south facing property. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolc123 Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 Hopefully, I can break in this 16 ga mod choke barrel this morning. Time for a few yelps. I was a little late getting into position this morning. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This one wandered off about a hundred yards, so I made a few clucks with my push button call , and she came right back in. Now she has gone into the woods behind me and I can still hear her yelping. No sign or sound of any toms over here this morning. I’ll give it till about 8:30, then I got to cut up another truckload of cherry. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That trumps turkey's and fish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UpStateRedNeck Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 These Jakes came running in, but 100% silent. Still hanging around. I even gobbled at them, hoping to start a ruckus, nothing other than some purring. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turkeyfeathers Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 2 crows were dive bombing a red tail. Now they’re on a raven. Neat to see size comparison of the 2 . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also have a flex tone thunder cutn mouth call, which was what first got her attention. I thought she was another hunter at first, over in the next hedge-row. The push button Lohman brought her back in the second time. Time for me to go cut some wood now. I will try an hour or so in the morning at home tomorrow. I think my cousin’s kid is hunting back there today. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
