It was exactly like I thought it would be. All the birds were on the south side of teh river. Did get to hear several gobble though. I packed up and went accross the road. Saw 3 hens but lots of sign. Saw some tracks that looked nearly as big as a dinosaur. Going this evening to roost those birds. reflexl

This is the worst opening weekend I can remember. Farmers sprayed the fields and sent my birds across the river. I rained cats and dogs. The Bird across the road flew down on the other side of the hill because a neighbors dog decided to bark itself to death near where I set up for fly down. I took a terrible headache that is still lingering a little........................ turkeys 2, reflexl 0
