Went up east of Colville this morning.  Lots of gobbles on the roost and then shut down shortly after fly down. Strutters on private fields.  Did some walking and driving.  Found scattered hens all single or in groups of 2 or 3.  Didn’t seem to be rhyme or reason to where they were

No ticks so far btw.  Permethrin seems to be working

First day out this season walked close to 15 miles and haven’t heard a single gobble. Still pretty windy and haven’t had one tick on me so far. Hoping the gobbling picks up.

My first thought this morning when they quit after fly down was they were henned up but after seeing all the stray hens I wonder if the breeding cycle has even started.  I assume it has because the Toms on private were strutting.  Thoughts?

SUPPOSEDLY, by starting the season the 15th vs. the 1st of April, allows for up to 60% of the hens to be bred.  I am seeing solo toms roaming the hill sides and an occasional tom with a handful of hens.  Cooler weather has definitely shut things down a lot.  Warmer weather next week should help.

Of course, activity varies  at every turn or bump in the road.
