I'm also a guy that's gonna say NE WA.
With that said.
Not sure on opening day yet.
We have alot of snow still blocking Mountain roads for the most part.
It could melt in a hurry ,never know.
Still a 45 days left to melt.

NE seems to be the group consensus. Which I kinda already figured. I may try and run out to the ne myself early in the season and go with my buddy again down by brooks.
Thanks

Had about 3 dozen pasture maggots at the end of the driveway this morning.

I live in western Washington and am trying to get my son and I in to turkey hunting. We have turkeys here but not in abundance. Curious on peoples opinions on NE WA over northern Idaho as far as access and success odds for a beginner. I've heard NE Wa can be a zoo and that north idaho doesn't get as much pressure. Any opinions/advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I wouldn't say any more of a zoo than deer season or any other season.
Idaho is just awesome for everything.
So that's just a matter of where you want to go.

Odds are better in Idaho but I wouldn't run over there unless you know someone that can put you on turkeys. A lot of the good areas on the border are private.

The better turkey areas in through Lewiston. Around Grangeville and further.

I don't hunt Idaho but I had a friend who did. It can work out in the right situation.
