2 to 4 inches of rain will make it easier for the guys to launch and recover the air boats. The last time I went we had to use a come along to get the boat on and off the trailer. Haven't been in a couple years but I can't imagine things have changed that much. Good luck on your hunt and take lots of pics. That's one thing i generally don't do and regret it every time.

First hunter in Ryan's camp this year!

He also just posted on his FB page that the second group has already tagged out!

Said the migration is off to a better start than last year but much colder so far.  Weather looks great for my first two days up there.  partly sunny, upper 40s and 5 mph wind.

Man that’s got to get you fired up!
:fire.:

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

Oh heck yes!  Get it done!  Good luck and have fun.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Every father should remember that one day his children will follow his example instead of his advice.

good luck to you Fred, Enjoy the trip and the experience regardless of weather you harvest anything or not.
The only man who never makes a mistake, is the man who never does anything!!
The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.
