Title: Someone turn the faucett off
Post by: The Gobble-stopper on April 19, 2012, 04:11:12 PM: Look up in the sky! Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No it's just washington rain! My gortex failed today, and my feet are soaked. Im thinking the turkeys must have wet suits on today! Not a peep to be heard.... I did see a mouse though! Not enough meat on him to go around, so I let him go...

We had the same weather and it worked for us to get my partner his first bird of the season by setting up on a field edge. They started popping out into the field edge and we setup there ... although our butts went numb waiting 2-1/2 hours for them to come on in, the bird was 18-1/2 lbs, 8-1/4 beard, and 5/8 spurs .... nice 2 year old.
