Been seeing quite a few up at my nephews. There are a couple very nice toms. Don't think they get hunted very much around here....h2l

I haven't seen any but haven't been out much. I did have 2 guys tell me today that neither has seen any turkeys this spring in places they normally would.

Finally saw some turkeys yesterday, 2 lone hens up north near my friend's place: one in a front yard and the other on the side of gravel road but there is just a small strip of land there between the Northway and a river. Then I saw 2 toms feeding in a small field in the evening closer to home, didn't seem at all interested in feeding, cold and snow flurries. Also saw a grouse.

Season opens in 9 days.

My boat is in a lot down by the county airport, right near farm country and a lot more turkeys down there. Pulling out yesterday there were 2 jakes strutting behind a hen inside the airport fence, safe from predators in there. I pulled over and made a couple lousy yelps without a call and they were gobbling back.
