Title: Mississippi gobbling?
Post by: northms on March 02, 2015, 01:25:13 PM
Anyone here hearing any birds yet?  I won't get to go until the 2nd weekend (March 21) but was wondering what y'all were hearing.  Been so cold and wet I can't imagine it's too much.

I would expect very little gobbling in this cold, wet weather, but I am not going out there to find out.

Haven't went listening yet, but, there's always one gobbling somewhere that wants to die!

Sorry, I'm not in Miss. but I did see one strutting yesterday. My buddy told me that he saw one strutting 5 miles away in another cut soy bean field.

Gobbling can't be far behind.

The one thing about the weather here in MS is that it can go from Winter to Summer in two weeks time. I suspect that will be the case this year. Winter may be lingering but you can bet it's living on borrowed time now that March is here.

As for the og question, no, I haven't heard a thing but I haven't gone to listen either. You let the weather get right for a few days and it will turn on like a light switch!

You're right.  Heard a rumor one was heard gobbling a couple years back in my county.  :toothy12:

I heard 2 gobbling their heads off on public land last Saturday morning. Well, at this point before season, gobbling 3 times between the 2 of them constitutes them tearing the woods up. Biggest problem is that the trees have not started budding at all. Not even the redbuds.

I've heard one turkey gobble on time here in Alabama about 75 miles Northeast of Mobile. Some trees are budding out. Saw some redbuds blooming in Mobile and also some azaleas. Dogwoods are only budding. Real warm here right now but another cold snap coming Thursday.
I'll be on the youth hunt Saturday. If they are gobbling, I'll post it here.

Heard 4 different gobblers tearing it up at Ouchita NF this weekend. Scratching everywhere on the north side of the lake!
