Is this a cry for help or well earned gloating? I was out last year near the end of November and they got pretty large. Do you expect them to swell even more by December?

Perhaps more a call for help. There are actually several flocks near this size (in the one pic there are nearly as many as you can see that hadn't crossed the road in front of me)I'm no expert but I can't think that so many large flocks in a small area can be a healthy thing. They've been like this most of the summer so it isn't just a winter flocking thing. I'm afraid a hard winter could be really devestating. Several big Tom's mixed in these groups which is somewhat unusual this time of year, usually the Tom's are off on their own.

Fruitland to Cedonia. Landowners not happy with them, haven't asked any but suspect permission might not be hard to get especially for youth hunters and after the late deer hunt.

Where are all the central Wa folks who need some turkey shot? I don't think I can squeak out another trip to the NE. I'm sure someone on here will be able to sling some lead at them.

Tons up north in the Roosevelt area also.
Had to stop the truck 3 times in one day so as to not run over 50 of them.
They would not get out of the way!
Honking and easing forward just made them move further down the road.
If we had tags, we would have been done for the season by 8 am.

I will also be headed over this Friday for three or four days. I still have two turkey tags and have two deer tags also since I have a second deer tag for the Mount Spokane unit. Let me know if anyone needs a hand thinning some critters off their property.

Good luck to everyone headed out this month. If anyone in the central Washington area needs a hunting buddy or some turkey removed I've got two tags I can still buy. PM me, I provide premium root beer and jerky
