Title: no turkeys?
Post by: bornagain64 on March 27, 2011, 03:33:47 PM
What would cause turkeys not to be where they have been  every year before?

I know there are a lot of possible reasons. I hunt public land in Fla. It is hot here already and we have not had has much rain as years past.

The areas we hunt, we have heard multiple gobblers in the past. After 3 days this year we are not hearing any gobbles, not seeing any birds on the roads. We have had a few hens and several encounters with Jakes.

    Thanks John

bornagain64,

I don't what happened to the turkeys. 

It may be water.  Go to the water and you may find birds.
