Title: Othello late season
Post by: TVHunts on January 05, 2014, 07:21:48 PM: As I am already starting to go into depression due to the upland season being close to over here is a couple of pics of recent success.
First picture is from Saturday December 28th on private land ( 2 of us hunting) and the second one is from Sunday the 29th on public land. I managed to eek out a few quail on Monday and Tuesday. For the sake of remaining married and employed I came home Tuesday afternoon.

I was skunked yesterday and got 2 roosters today which was a great treat and a suprise. No big old tail draggers but, a birds a bird... Hunting hard and putting on alot of miles to get birds, it's been a tough year.

You did well! I have yet to have a limit day this year. Being local is a great thing to know the sneaker spots!

Post by: Special T on January 06, 2014, 12:34:22 PM: I went on Friday. the birds wern't holding. Didn't get any shooting in. We kicked up 5 birds 1 rooster but was too far out. We also kicked up a covey of quail(which is always heartt pumping) but we don't shoot those on the brother inlaws farm... not enough of them yet. It was good to work the dog tho.
