Hoyt4 Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Well been out most the week hunting with no luck. Called in a few hens one night. No gobbling going on in the evenings. I got out for the first morning today and the last day of my season. I only had a couples hours to hunt this morning. Had to get back to work and leave for my first WI season tonight. Just when I was getting ready to pack up and leave. I saw some movement and had 6 jakes coming my way. Once they got to 30 yds I thought that was close enough. I wanted the big one of the group but could not get a clear shot so I took the first one that would get apart from them. 18lb jake. Nice 32 degrees this morning. First time using the new camera so pics are not the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Musky Buck Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 They were really on the prowl this AM, saw many toms with hens, lone tom at my bird feeder, think they sensed the weather change a comin. Pheasants deer etc. also really were out and about more so than the past week from my observations.

Hoyt4 Posted April 27, 2012 Author Share Posted April 27, 2012 SNS I put the blind up cause them weather guys say it's suppose to rain. Never did on me. I setup on Sunday. Still no decoy though. Musky buck, sure wish those birds would of been out on the prowl by me. Was a tough week of not hearing anything. I did find many spots for a deer stands though.
