Nice job! Seems like it is either feast or famine in the NE this year.

Nice job Jason.  You need to stop by camp next time, I thought you wanted a Rio?  LOL  :)  You leave any Merriams up there?

Good luck JB ...
The toms are out there and workable, but be patient ... they seemed to be getting better later last week, but a little more quiet than normal (probably due to late snow and colder weather).  I have no doubt that you'll be in and harvesting birds ...
