My son got a nice bird on opening morning. We were thinking about Machias as he was the first one to take us out and teach us the ways of turkey hunting. Thanks Fred.
It was a great morning. The first place that we set-up didn't work out as we hoped. The birds flew down at sunrise but then headed the other direction. So we went to plan B, headed to a piece of public land that we had never tried before, and broke out the decoy and started calling. Called the bird out of a big flock in the distance. Boom.
