Spring Turkey 2025

Thanks for sharing.
I know if I overcall, I have less success. But hard to keep one self in control. LOL
I have better luck when I call JUST enough to keep them interested. They are very inquisitive and once you have them coming I have a lot better luck if I call little to not at all.
As a side note, I now even force myself to sometimes even put my call BACK into my pocket when they are coming in.

I'm telling you man; this guy could cause another evolution in turkey. When the pilgrims landed; ruffed grouse were called "fool's hens" and both could be chased down and beaten with sticks.

ND seems an exception as they're seemingly not taken seriously and regarded more as a pest.

My PB gobbler was killed in Lake Alice WMA after getting out of the truck and blasting it out of a group of three. I sat on the tail gate and called the other two back within 25yds. They re-crossed the road gobbling while I was having a beer. That was not a hunt: It was a shoot. Two pot pies and two "chicken finger" fries...It was a big SOB.

I still maintain WV should work out some sort of trade for ND dumbassed gobblers and the Tailrace:

If you see it you won't likely hook it unless you have the means to correctly present a #24 Black Gnat :

Piss on the British: Gut ASAP. Cool the carcass with all gamebirds unless you want to eat that "shit/gut smell". Canada's/sharptail can't be helped...it's shit/fish/liver. Huns are borderline.

IMHE/O

That is all.

I do like the conversation on the turkeys!...did you know that Ben Franklin fought for the wild turkey to be the National bird....
